    Retainers and Apperences

    I've been wondering for a while now, and I'm not really sure if anyone else cares, but has anyone wondered why the Aesthetician Hairstyles can't be put on retainers after they're unlocked?

    And while we're at it, why can't we put retainers inside of houses or personal roomes?

    Since the Devs are FINALLY making it so we can assign Job Classes to our retainers I figured now would be as good a time as any to bring this up.

    Now if only enough players cared to get dev attention.

    As far as the house/private rooms, it's because no one aside from the homeowner/FC or roomowner can use the facilities within. My FC wanted to be creative and put the extra crafting station in a personal room... and only that person was able to use it. Same thing with retainer bell in a personal room, and vendors in the rooms. I'd guess it's all under that umbrella restriction.

    I think that's kinda lame too. I personally don't see how using another FC's NPCs in their house is game breaking. I get why the garden, and furniture, and stuff is locked by why NPCs? It makes running Diadem HM a pain when I can't use the Party Leader's Repair and Junkmonger NPCs.

    True, I always wish I can put my retainer inside house. Poor retainer

    This is because you unlock them with the character, not with the retainers.

    It seems that SE would have a new way to make me grind MGP then if they made style books for retainers as well.

    You also aren't able to fantasia and use unlocked hairstyles - that has to be done after fantasia at the aesthetician. Essentially if you can't create a character with the hairstyle at creation, you can't make a retainer with it or Fantasia to it.
