Just from the top of my head, as I don't have time to set sth up right now: make two grids. On the first you set the positions where you want your strands to be. This grid stays undeformed. The second grid is a copy of the first and this one will be deformed. You can get the locations from grid one and use them on the deformed grid with a compound called "reinterpret location on new geometry". That way they should stick. I hope that gets you somewhere... Or if your setup permits you can do it on one mesh using the emitLocation, or some custom parameter for the location. This has to be stored before the push operator and read afterwards...so you would need two ice trees for that.
