Genesis 8 hair on Genesis 9 figure losing shaping ability

Witchaven

I realized that I could create unique hairstyles if I combine 2 different hairstyles together and use Colorworks to match colors, the problem is that I put a GEN 8 hairsytle on a GEN 9 character and it won't let me adjust it at all for some reason. Is there a workaround for this?

Not at all? Long hair may have extra bones for adjusting its drape, and any hair may use bones to hide parts (such as bangs) even if theya re not intended to be posed. AutoFit will remove any custom bones, but it should preserve actual morphs. In any event, it is often better not to fit the hair but simply to parent it to the ehad, then adjust its position, size, and shaping options to make it fit - that will preserve all bones.
