    It's one thing to not see much choice in hairstyles. You can say it's simply a preview of an unfinished product, because that is possible. It's another thing altogether to see hairstyles tied to faces.

    Au ra horns are tied to faces. If you want to change your horns you must also change your face, which means you need a fantasia. Hrothgar hair works the same way. Will we need a fantasia to change hrothgar hair? Does this also mean that we will be stuck with just those hairstyles? This isn't a case of freaking over nothing. This is a genuine concern given we know how au ra horns are treated, and how hairstyles have been treated up to now.

The trailer didn't do them justice at all but what we see now looks so much better than even then. I have faith that SE will have far more options upon release, but even if they don't I'll still change. The new races are perfect in aesthetic, in my opinion.
    The fact that the Hrothgar hair is also specifically tied to the facial features (additional - specific - options for the hair) of each face tells me the hair is tied to each specific face.

    Also, what would be the point of having two of each face, when the only variation is the hair?

    Instead of a limited job we got limited hair. It's almost like full hair!
