I use a dubbing loop all the time for that reason, plus you get buggier bodies. A couple of tricks when using a dubbing loop is when you get to the bend of the hook and make your loop, wrap you thread around the loop by the hook so you don't have one side of thread on one side of the hook and the other one on the other side. It is like a knot at the hook connection. Keeps the thread closer together and one won't slide.
The other trick is to take a clump of dubbing and keep pulling it between your two hands so the fibers are all facing the same direction. Not sure any of that makes sense, but it worked for me.[
