Ambient in Iray

Hey guys, summoning some assitance before my head explodes.

I'm working on a commission which features a character I had previously showcased, but I can't get her hair right.

The previous images were done in 3Delight, and now I'm operating in Iray, and the character's hair had a contained glow to it when they were portrayed in 3Delight, easily achieved by the ambient slider.

Is there ANYTHING like this in Iray? Even SLIGHTLY like it? I'm toggling every bloody thing in sight, and hair's only going duller and more grey, LOL. - I've seen emission suggested, but... it doesn't exactly do much to the texture, that I can see, aside from light. And I don't want their head to turn into a light source!

If someone can think of something that can lighten or bleach the brightness of a texture, I'm sure I can take it from there.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
