Introduction
HairClump is a Blender add-on that parametrically controls the randomness of hair shapes, such as clumping control, virtual parents controls, length control, kink control, and other various controls—makes it easier for users to style a complex hairstyle. Besides, this add-on features a function to export particles and instances in ABC format.
