all of hrothgars woes relate to their incredibly thick neck and the way they hunch over. any hair we already have will probably clip through the neck and the only way to put a hat on them is to drastically resize and reposition it.
another solution would be to do what wow did, giving them a unique headpiece that can be reskinned to match the gearset, but that only works in wow because most of their gear (robes especially) are the same mesh with new textures. it doesnt fit as well in ffxiv.
I always say to myself,: I can understand not wanting to really go back and mess with the older stuff, but not developing the newer stuff along side every other race for Hrothgar and viera makes 0 sense to me.

Case in point; The windcaller (?) hairstyle from bozja. Some hairstyles also really wouldn't require an entire refit (the shorter hairstyles). Another point would be some of their hairstyles really wouldnt require a drastic amount of work (check around the internet and you'll see). Also, I think that Mogstation items should be the exception to the limited headgear for viera and hrothgar because I mean...you're actually using your money to buy it....you should be able to wear the headgear...
