hair dynamics doesn't work I set up a simple hair dynamics system in Blender 2.8 to replicate the problem I have in my original model. No matter what settings I use the top part of the hair is always stuck in place and stretches to the mesh.


Here is a link to the file:

There must be something fundamentally wrong either in my setup or in Blender.

Any ideas?
Try turning off smooth shading. Select object, Rt click and set to Shade flat. If this works (it worked for me) you have to copy the scalp parent it to the object and turn off show emitter in the particle settings.
