I haven't found a way to attach/constrain a FEM to a moving object 
tought the regular constrain nodes might do the trick but none of them worked for me.

or you make a global scale slider to control all the parameters of the character hair, OR??? scale the entire scene and leave the character alone. by the way, you should check Fabio hair system for houdini

you can also use the a collision object, i would create a big blob that have the shape of the head (avoid having open areas like eyelids or mouth)
i would play with the subframes and increase the solver resolution. and i would use a regular wind node
check fabio for houdini, comes with a lot of tools

try os.system
spawn
and are other old methods that you can try beside popen make sure you pass the argument shell=True, that will open a new shell in the background, instead using the same one where the current python script is running.

easier to ask if you can plug a velocity field to wiresimulation.
i guess that you only need to bring a fields and plug it into the advected data.

import your curves and skin geometry to houdini, and use
fabio hair system, in the first tab just pass the skin, and the guide curves.

updates for houdini 16
http://polybevel.wixsite.com/fabio-hair-system [polybevel.wixsite.com]
now can use the new nodes of houdini 16 shelf button “Hair V16” will laydown all the nodes for using the new nodes.
can also render hair as volume, great for mops, or far away characters. were is no need to raytrace every single hair curve.
https://vimeo.com/209689243 [vimeo.com]
there is a new node for rendering shadows, (complex, that's why took me so long to get the code working right)
renders faster and with higher antialias, less need for a higher sample.

i have a fem object and i want to stick it to another object,
a green ugly bugger (a long tear drop shape ) and i want to stick it to the nose geometry, so when the head moves, the fem will react and bound around, collide with geometry if needed etc…
