Hell just last night I tried a picture with a girl dangling from the ceiling in handcuffs (you know like most girls do… not)
smirk Hah. Good one.
and the hair pokes through her arm. Could have been fixed or at least concealed by dragging the hair forward so it hangs down her chest. Except it wasn't possible. Had to go for another one. Not sure if even the morph tool will help in many cases because some hairs are just made of one piece. The most "advanced" ones have three pieces or not many more than that. So… It's back to ponytails and short hair styles. And even those have problems. I have another character with a short hairstyle. Tried giving her glasses. The damn hair was hanging from her forehead BEHIND the glasses AND going through the frame and the lens. You can see her here by the way (yes I now have a Deviantart page, drop by and say Hi). http://vergilian.deviantart.com/art/Carla-test-render-525603477.
Look like you went back for another edit? Link went down, buddy.

I know what you mean, as I have pretty3d's school girl hair for G2F as my only multi piece hair for G2… I have some V4.2 content I haven't played with yet Pre poseables are the best short of needing animations.
Poking through an arm? How did it even get on the market? Or was it an object?
While I have not run into the problem you speak of with glasses I came across similar with clothes.
Shame there's no way to do the traditional "eye trace through the hair" thing as in manga and anime for hair which covers eyes. There's shaders for the general look afterall.
The link is there it just had an extra dot at the end. You could have just removed the part after deviantart.com and gone straight to my profile. Anyway here it is. http://vergilian.deviantart.com/art/Carla-test-render-525603477
And here is what I was talking about. See how the hair goes into her forehead on the left side of the picture and through the glasses. It's not just this hair, it's all of them. Not sure if this is Poser's fault for not having collision detection (in fact I've seen collision detection checkboxes on items but I don't know what they are used for) or if the same thing would happen in DAZ. I think it's more likely that this is what we're going to get for a while at least, in terms of hair. Although there are several types of hair in Poser/DAZ (three, IIRC), so maybe this is the type that doesn't handle collisions. Then again her mouth glows blue and I have no idea why either. I'm still feeling my way around like a blind man at an orgy when it comes to 3D. Lighting is particularly pissing me off, in fact. One skin will look fine and glossy and then I try another character and it looks dry as a bone, with the same damn lights. You'd think light would be just light and behave consistently.
To get collisions in Poser, both parties must have the option checked (hair and body/head and glasses in this case) - basically anything that's going to come in contact with each other.
But then, I think that only applies to dynamic hair and cloth.
However, finding the right value for the collision depth is tricky, and at best, you may end up with a larger gap between the surfaces than had you not used the collision. At worst, you end up with a flailing death-wig.
For static hair pieces, you may need to get jiggy with the direct manipulation tool and shmoov the hair out of the way.
If that is a dynamic hair, then it's a simple matter of tweaking the dynamics (and I cannot help but laugh to myself when I say that, because there's very little that's "simple" about Poser's dynamic hair).
