V4 hair for V6

I generally have very little trouble getting V4 items (clothes, hair etc) to work on V6/Genesis. Once in while, however, I get something like this (attachment) - in this case a strange break in a set of long braids. Other than making the braids into a prop in Hexagon (which could be done ovbiously) is there any way to avoid a glitch like this?

PS a marginally related topic: how do I parent things without them jumping all over the map, so to speak. I usually have no trouble; but lately for example, when I try to parent a chess piece to a figure's hand - the chess piece jumps out of sight somewhere. I must have some box checked . . .

Parent in Place, yes! Thanks. Also making a Hexagon prop of the hair totally solved the problem.
