curled hair

Hello everybody.

The max internal "hair & fur" modifier is a nice tool. But I
wonder how it is possible to create a curled hair style (e.g. perm hairstyle).
All tutorials that I have found about 3ds max hair are about non-curled hair
cuts.

I remember the old days when I used to work with the shag:hair plugin. There was
a value to control the hair's curliness. But I really miss something like this
in the max internal "hair & fur" system.
