Pretty much exactly what it says in the short description. The image I have of Jaheira in my mind is her from Baldur's Gate 1, and I get that BG3 carried forward her BG2 design, but I don't have to like it. (Why did BG2 whitewash her like that for real...) This mod edits her eye and skin colors to match BG1, and tweaks her haircolor to try and match BG1 a bit better as well, but a greying version of it. (I might update the hair color at some point, I'll admit I was struggling with that one a bit 😅...) Her hair and head meshes are the still the same as before, I only edited the colors!
This mod requires Padme4000's Unique Companion Assets! This means it will be compatible with other mods using Unique Companion Assets for her, like Clay's Custom Companions - MILF edition, and Transgender Jaheira. It might not be compatible with other mods editing her appearance without UCA, though; they'll likely have to be tested on a case-by-case basis.
It also, of course, will conflict with other mods editing her hair, eye, and skin colors. But any other edits to her appearance, including hairstyle, bodytype, and more will be compatible, as long as they're using UCA!

Install via BG3 Mod Manager! Make sure to put it below Unique Companion Assets in your load order, and only install ONE version at a time!
Uninstall by removing the mod from your mod load order, or deleting the mod. The mod should be safe to uninstall, even mid-playthrough! Any changes made by the mod should revert on uninstallation.
... And that's about it! As always, let me know if you run into any issues, and enjoy!

... Before you go, though, please check out these resources I've compiled.
I do link them on pretty much all my mod pages, but considering everything going on in the world, I wanted to highlight them. Please, do what you can to help, and take care of yourselves, ok?
