Trouble with shaved hairstyles

So, I'm frankenmeshing for the first time. I have a little experience with Blender but am new to making cc. I'm trying to make a partially shaved hairstyle. I thought I could cobble it together by following tutorials, but I'm having trouble with the shaved part. It seems like the shaved hairstyles' meshes are only one polygon, and are instead just a texture on top of the head. When I tried to import one into Blender, the polygon is there but I can't figure out how to get the texture to show up on the head, either in Blender or imported back into S4S. I have the texture .png, I just have no idea what to do with it. 

I'm in Blender 2.7 and S4S 3.1.5.7.

It's very possible that there's a simple answer to this, but I can't find it online so I'm reaching out here. Thanks in advance.
