📋 About This Mod
What is this mod?
I’d been working on some salt and pepper colors and got inspired to make some faded versions of the vanilla hair colors. The vibe I was going for is box color after a few washes, a few too many weeks between your color touch up.
Note about CCXL hair colors: These only work on CCXL hairs and vanilla hair. Replacers will look blonde or black, or there may be texture weirdness. These are not bugs I can fix. Do not report them as such.
Feel free to upload your pics! I love to see my hair colors in the wild :3
How do I install it?
Unzip into your game folder or install via mod manager.
How do I uninstall it?
Remove the .archive, .xl, and .yaml files. The naming convention is consistent, you’re welcome. Just search for “ratstick_faded_glory_ccxl”.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Niche but appreciated—118 endorsements show a dedicated following.
- Frequent updates (last updated June 2025) keep it fresh.
- Simple, focused addition: just pastel hair colors, no bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects CCXL hair colors—if you don't use that system, this is useless.
- No screenshots or detailed previews in the description, so you're flying blind.
- Limited to 35 colors—might not cover every shade you want.
For players who want softer, pastel hair tones without overhauling the whole game. If you're into character customization and use CCXL hairs, this is a quick win. Skip if you prefer vibrant or realistic colors—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have CCXL hairs installed, or this mod won't do anything.
- Check your mod manager's preview to see the colors before committing in-game.
- If you use other hair color mods, load this one after them to avoid conflicts.
