Can someone point me to a fake-hair tutorial, please?

I am modeling a horse, and I want to make the tail and mane out of planes (and then turn the planes into cloth). I'm planning on using bump maps + transparency, but I'm not sure how the mask for transparency should be done (note I am using Corel, not Photoshop, but I could probably do the same thing on Corel).
Can someone give me a tutorial for how to create fake hair, please?

This is by far the most used tut in regards to low poly hair. Its how I learnt.

Transparency map doesn't work for the created hair though, what's up with it? I remember I've once used an alpha map to do clouds for an Earth model, but it's not working the same for the hair...

Edit: never mind, forgot to select Alpha is luminance.
