It's focused on "forms", somehow organized structures, which are almost impossible to do by brushing the guides by hand, also, which could be hundreds times slower to simulate, using gravity, collision, or like. It's never ever meant to be solution for everything. I'm always surprised by expectations.
In other words, I sow very believable renders of short hair, done by traditional, brushes&guides method.
At least mid tone or dark hair. Bright hair with a lot of translucency... it's possible to fake it to some extent, using transparent and colored shadows, additive mix over transparency(in SI render tree, this could be non-transparent hair shader, added over black and transparent constant shader) - or some full ray-tracing, if your renderer and shader utilizes importance sampling, shifted reflections, what not.

Do your basic styling maybe through guide curves and then later on you would need to add spliss and that curles on the end of some strands.
But should be doable with quite some styling work.

Everything is there to accomplish what you need. This took just a few minutes to setup. Your going to have to spend time styling.

thanks for the tips guys, if someone could be a bit more pragmatic telling how technically could be achive a similar results i would really apreciate, i used kristinka a bit and im sure too that everything is there in front of my eyes, but i was asking practially a help not a motivational input.
Izze im not completelly sure on what you showd me here, could you specify a bit?
thanks
