      Any
         NURBS curve can be made into a dynamic hair, such as a curve deformer or
         input curves to a lofted surface. In addition to creating long hair
         and hairstyles you can use hair curves to create:
      
      
         - ropes
            and chains (dynamic curves)
         
- a fish
            (wire deformer)
         
- a fishing
            line (single hair with expressions)
         
- a tied-back
            beaded curtain (hairs with a constraint)
         
- an
            octopus (select Hair curves and create a lofted surface)
         
- a suspension
            bridge 
         
- a wire
            deformer on particles
