Semi-transparent ear hair on multiple Female Miqo'te hairstyles
Numerous hairstyles of both female and male Miqo'te of both clans have an error where a tuft of hair on both ears is semi-transparent. This was not the case before the 7.0 update.
Bugged opacity of ear hair examples:

A different hairstyle with solid ear hairs, no transparency issue:

To a lesser extent, this also affects male Miqo'te ear hair.
On the left is a hairstyle with the opacity issue circled, on the right is a hairstyle with no issue:

This bug is affecting the same hairstyles for both male and female. At the moment, I can only verify these specific base hairstyles being affected, which all happen to be grouped at the bottom of the character creator. I've circled them in red:

Steps:
1. Log into FFXIV or go into character creator.
2. Play as a male or female Miqo'te, of either clan. (Easier to notice on female)
3. Select a pale skin tone and dark hair color for easier visibility of the error.
4. Scroll through hairstyles, looking at the opacity of the hair on the ears changing between hairstyles.
