Request: Longer hairstyles & More male hairstyles

[Haruka_R]

The only time I have seen him show a preference for something due to his character was in an interview he said he pushed for Yshtola’s new outfit to release quickly because he wanted it for his character, which I thought was kinda cute. Not saying Theodric is making it up and this is the only time this has happened because I really don’t know.

Just felt like sharing.

I remember that. I know for a fact Yoshida really likes Y'shtola. So, if what Theo says is true, then a lot of things concerning this topic would make sense.

Cid's beard when ? We're stuck with spots pretending to be hair all over the face.

To keep this thread from getting derailed on speculation ---- back to the thread topic
1000% yes, Cids beard- why is it only HE has a beard??
Can no other man in all of FFXIV grow a beard?

I want to see male highlander eyebrows for one, and Beards for all male races - not ratty pubescent-looking facial hair
And more stubble /yum

I'd just like to see more that aren't either "spiky anime protag" or "one braid wrapped in somewhere".

(I mean, as a Viera player, I'd like to see anything, but that's a different thread.)

I'm annoyed at the tiny, child-like random braids some hairstyles have. The braids serve no purpose-- I want halo braids & milk-maid braids, actual thick braided hairstyles- the kind of braids that serve a purpose.
Also, I want frans ponytail for Viera, Mjrns bob & a really long viera hair that doesn't look like they're hiding a lalafell in it
I know Viera have a short-mid length hair that is flat, but they need better hairstyles-- I'd like more with an optional black diadem/ tiara similar to what Fran wears- imo, if SE is so deadset on viera not having any hats, they need to design their hairs to cater to actually making viera not need hats by giving them customization with their hair accessories
(and spotted ears)

Imagine if Viera could have super long anime hair - who cares about clipping, I'd sacrifice all the hats in the game for them, that's what I'd call a fair trade.

There are certainly way to many anime-protagonist hairstyles- which typically looks really silly (like rainmaker hair)- and look at that 1 giant pompadour - it's an eyesore because there isn't much in the way of unique or stylish hairstyles.

Exactly. I don't want it to look like my character uses a swordfish to and a hedgehog to style his hair in the morning... I'm one of the types that wants something that looks more grounded in realism and everyday looks. We have some already, sure. But it always felt like the options were pretty limited, especially considering the additions for mens hair we've had over the past 4-ish years.

I’m pretty sure most of the hairstyles we have gotten in the last few years have been from a styling contest. I think they have all been implemented now. I’m interested to see if the medium shaggy hairs will continue now that it’s the developers designing them.

I just checked the announcement of the winners, and you are correct. This latest one from Delubrum Reginae appears to be the final one that was pending being added.

My requests









Make it happen Yoshi P. Thank you

[Allegor]

You may be joking but half of those genuinely look like Lala racial hair

[HeyMcFly]

I was just going to post about the infamous design contest. I'm so glad they never did that kind of thing again after realizing most of the votes went out based on how much users like the art style rather than the concept itself. Looking through that relic is sad when so many interesting entries got buried because of poor artistic style

Also, clipping be damned. Viera only have two hair styles that don't clip into everything imaginable. It's fine, release the length!!

I'm hoping for Gaia's Hair & Hilda's Ponytail
RELEASE THE LENGTH!
