Description
Recent methods have been developed to reconstruct 3D hair strand geometry from images. We introduce an inverse hair grooming pipeline to transform these unstructured hair strands into procedural hair grooms controlled by a small set of guide strands and artist-friendly grooming operators, enabling easy editing of hair shape and style.
