Why does changing the pose ignore parenting?

I have a V4.2 figure in my scene and have put hair on her (ToulouseHR). It's been adjusted to the right position on her head and then parented to her head. But when I select a pose from the Genesis poses, the figure takes up the pose ok, but the hair stays right where it was (so is no longer on her head!)

How can I stop this happening (ie make the hair move with the figure)?

    If the hair is properly parented to V4 it should stay there, even when a different pose is used.

    What hair are you using, how did you parent it, did you check in the Scene pane to see that it is a child of the Head?

    As I said, I am using ToulouseHR. I am loading it, positioning it (rather than "fit to" as it seems to grow out of her face if I do that!). Once it's positioned I parent it in the scene tab by dragging it to the head and letting go. It is parented correctly.

    Toulouse hair is made for Genesis and Genesis 2, it doesn't work properly with V4, I tried it myself. Most items for Genesis are not compatible with V4, and Autofit only works the other way, V4 to Genesis.

    Maybe someone else can help.
