Particle Hair Not Rendering in Cycles?

Question

I'm making a character in Blender based off of Darrin Lile's character modeling series. However, instead of making an object for hair like he did, I decided to try using particle hair. However, when I try to render my hair, it does not show up. Can anyone help tell me what to fix? I'll include the blend file below.

Are you in edit mode with the hair object selected? I think there is a bug affecting that. — ajwood, Oct 10 '15 at 13:43
Nope, I am in object mode and I have nothing selected, but when I attempt to render, it just does not appear. — Christopher Colborne, Oct 11 '15 at 15:13

Did you try the convert button? That is the answer I keep seeing, Convert Cycles Hair Particle System to Mesh Object. Hope this helps I am new to blender so just reading through.... :)

I had to convert it so that I could parent the hair to my armature. But once I did that, it would not show up in the render. – Christopher Colborne Oct 11 '15 at 15:14
That is the solution I used in the end, but it still isn't as polished as the particle hair normally is. – Christopher Colborne Oct 11 '15 at 15:15
