Fake looking Genital and underarm hairs

[capta134]

I'm wondering why every single genital and underarm hair in resources when added to a person atom looks extremely unrealistic.

If I add hair using skin texture then it looks much more realistic.

Am I doing something wrong or this is just a normal behavior.

Do you have an example?

Just download any underarm of genital hair and apply it. Does it look realistic to you?

Or are you aware of any scene which has genial hair added(as hair) and looks realistic?

The problem with hair on a skin texture is that it's pretty flat. Even with a normal map, it's still pretty flat. Mesh hair can't use millions of polys, because it would kill the FPS. It's a tradeoff. I agree about underarm hair, but there are some decent pubes around. These pubes do look pretty natural to me, but YMMV:

You can tweak the hairs mate and if you don't like what there is out there you can just go ahead and make your own.
