Ok, I tried to get into 6pro, lol, I notice that the displacement mappings are truly very different.
I ended up going with an older save before the hair was placed on my subject.

I carefully checked symmetry made sure I hit "Center Symmetry Plane" under the HAIR menu dropdown. That might have been the problem when I started my hair on my last attempt.
I started my grow regions form there on with no problem so far.... :)
