Hi thanulee,

Going by the previous post, this is not an object per Hair. I should always ask for the bigger picture.

Here is you file back.

I created a copy of the Hair Object and made it editable, then moved it away and used it as Rail in the Cloner.

Have you explore the options of Instances in Hair?

All the best

Thanks a lot! No worries, this is not the same case hehe. I do many tests :D
Yes i have played also with instances in hair. Would it be possible with that setup to have only 1 instance on the tip of the hair without distortion, as this setup here? thanks again!

Thanulee,

The parameters to get the Object as the hair are:

The Thickness of the Hair Material will determine the size of the object, except for the length.

The length is given by the Hair length.

The subdivision of the Object should align with the Segments of the hair, or greater than the Hair.

The Hair Material needs to be Transparent.

In the example I stored the Dynamic and switched on Rigit in the Hair Dynamics
