Hairstyles you want on your character

Unread post by Vicario »

On trade chat on Wyrmrest, I overheard people wondering what it would be like if every hairstyle could be used by anyone. And here are my ideas of what I'd try.

Casandrau: Crazy ponytail, imbalanced emo hair, stereotypically butch hair
Vicario: Strange spiky hair, braided with some braids at the front, crazy ponytail again, horibly overused Xemnas hair
My Undead Warrior: Arclite's hair, Awesome ponytail

What styles would you want on your character, if any? What would be the strangest combos possible? Should Draenei, of all people, have been given emo hair? Should literally every race be allowed to have a mohawk?

I think for Rhyela I'd like to have the simple blood elf hairstyle, or short braids dwarf hairstyle. I do wish the one my hunter currently has was a bit cleaner. It looks so jagged in the back. I wish it had long bangs, and the hair angled back towards the back of the head (I think they call it a wedge cut?).

Something like this, but just a little higher up in the back:

I would love love LOVE trolls to be able to get dreadlocks. I mean honestly, there is not enough customization with characters in general, but I find trolls (especially females) to be particularly lacking.

I just want Tauren females to have more options. All the current hairstyles look really dull and exactly the same, most of the time I end up taking the one that doesn't have anythong extra apart from the mane. Also... I want to change my Taurens' mane color! Right now the only way to make them look unique is with their horns, as the skin color is mostly obstructed by armor. Only thing that remains visible is the head and it doesn't have the white spots. :(

Honestly? I wish blood elf males had a shag haircut kinda like this:

I wish the Night Elf Females had a couple of the blood elf female hairstyles that frame the face.

I wish that Blood elf females had the sideweeping draenei female hairstyle. http://ogle.eyebeamresearch.org/files/wyatt/draenei.jpg

I wish that Female Trolls had at least 3 decent hairstyles.

If I could only have one thing (ok two lol), it would be for Blood Elves to have the Draenei pigtails, and also the dark brown hair color they have as well, the one the Blood Elves have now is still too light for my taste. I try to make my chars look like me as much as possible, since my hair oddly lightened up from the blackish color it was to dark brown, this would make me happy. But, we need more options in general, most MMOs have a plethora more than what we have now, even if it was a modest amount of styles shared by as many races as possible, and a slider for color that you could pick the shade of a particular color, like be able to make gray, a shade of brown that's almost black, and so on. Also, we need a 'flip' option, to reverse the hairstyle from left to right, so if you don't like your sideswept bangs to your left, you can have them to your right. Something cute like highlights would be a neat makeover option, only available after your character is made and only at the barbershop.

I really wish there were a lot more options for the Orc girls for hair. My new Orc has that long braided pony tail with no hair around it. I think it looks ugly but is the best compared to what comes stock on the character.

Agreed that Tauren females need a lot more in the way of hairstyles. Also faces. Need more faces.

I'd also like to be able to make more of my female characters bald, or have a sort of buzz cut. I think orc females are the only ones with the option for this, currently.

There was, for a brief moment, a dwarf hairstyle I loved. It was like a cross between my usual one, which is the one on my avatar picture (short with three braids) and the poofy one called "flirty" or something. All wild and braided. It was cool. It came in on one patch and out on the next, if memory serves. Why, I don't know. I logged in one day and my hairstyle had been changed and the barber shop didn't have it anymore. I even opened a ticket about it, but never got an answer. I want it back.

I am not sure because maybe some of these styles are too similar to the hairstyles already available in game (I'll let you be the judge) but I found a couple new styles that might be nice if Blizzard ever decided to add new do's for our avatars.

Guys Styles:
http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_p39Trjz5E-o/S ... +style.jpg
Long Bangs, short and spiky in the back. I could see this style going for Humans and Blood Elves mostly.

Gal Styles:
http://www.fashionmaniacs.com/Bridal-hairstyles.jpg
Cute, short, and curly. I could see this style going for Humans, Gnomes, Dwarves, and Blood Elves.

http://men-haircuts.com/wp-content/uplo ... rstyle.jpg
This syle is listed as a male haircut but I think it would be a nice alternative for female Trolls, Undead, Orcs, and Draenei. What do you think?

http://76.12.200.158/updo-mohawk-hairst ... mohawk.jpg
Another Mohawk-esque style I could easily see being used for Trolls, Orcs, and Undead.

The infamous Bo Derrek do from the 80s would be nice to see for Trolls, Orcs, Night Elves, and Tauren. I would especially be excited to see more "ornaments" being used for female hairstyles such as the beads and maybe even feathers or bones depending on the race!

That's a lot like the hairstyle I was talking about. Just add a few braids.
