We've gotten hairstyles from other FF games (Type-0, Stranger of Paradise, Tactics, VII, XV), so it's possible even if we don't get it during the collab. °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

I don't know why Gosetsu's hairstyle was never added, but it would be nice to have it. Especially if you've bought his glamour set. :(

Yes please

The lack of facial hair in a game that has so much popularity just annoys me. We can have weird looking facial hair that doesn't connect between the mustache and beard or almost none at all. I have more options to put makeup on my male characters than facial hair! Its disgusting. I want to play a Roe that has great beard options and instead we get flying moons or Easter Bunny Egg hats.

I AGREE
WE NEED FULL FACIAL HAIR, BIG HANDSOME BEARDS
(and chest hair c; )

The FFXVI crossover event and Clive's model have shown that beards are possible. We need way more beard options for all the face types of males of all races.

Beards are always possible. Clive does have it because it is an unique NPC model.

The problem, at least to what it seems on surface, is that current character models are limited in the number of 'customization slots' that aren't hairstyles or face paints. Why I say that? We got the stubble people asked for so long in one race.

Yet, when you go through it, you realize that in order to do that, they had to duplicate one of the midlander male faces and have the stubble permanent. Why they would do all that if the most logical way would be just to add the stubble as an option? Because all of the customization slots for face features are full. Imagine if they deleted the 1.0 tattoo for that lol.

I'm all for more and cohese customization options for everyone, but I feel that they need first to improve the foundations of the character creation, which is not something the graphics update will do. IIRC they vaguely mentioned they'd look into this in the future. When? Who knows...

This ^
I wouldn't hold my breath on the devs updating character creator- people have asked for such changes for years (more faces/ improving character creator) and nothing has come of it.
Hence, why I think many people have turned to outside options.
They also said they'd look into increasing item slots for housing and making ward specific house cosmetics actually customizable but that hasn't happened either & it's been radio silence since.
I'm sure people have asked, but xiv team probably dodge repeated questions.

They keep citing clipping issues...

MAKE. LESS. COLLARED. GEAR!

With all that said, I wonder how/why Midlanders can have 7 face options and everyone else is stuck with only 4. Unless it greatly stresses the servers or coding, I'm sure a lot of people would like whole new face models to be added.

PS: I haven't seen anything about it, but I'm praying to the Twelve the graphic update gives Highlanders eyebrows at last...or at least make the face paint not look so smeared so we can pretend they're eyebrows.
