📋 About This Mod
Update -There is a port of this mod compatible with Mod Engine made by u/Arktomys. It is way more convenient than using iGP11, so I encourage you to use that one instead.
v1. 1 (2016-09-17) - Added eyebrows!
Are you tired of those dull greyish hair colors?
Do you want your characther to have a truly white mane?
Is your beard not pink enough?
Then, this is for you! Through complex game code hacking, I've managed to add a light source inside the characters' heads that will make their follicles shine like a Chistmas tree.
... Nevermind, I just brightened the base color of the hair textures, including beards and eyebrows - that's all. This way, you will have a wider color palette and the hair will look more intense in-game.
Important notes:
-
[]It will probably change the hair color of all your present characters. Make sure you can modify your appearance at Rosaria's if you want to keep his/her original look.
[
]It will also apply to other player's phantoms, so their hair might not look exactly the same as they created it in your screen (and vice versa).[]Keep in mind that the hair color may look different depending on the area and the light sources- e.g. in Rosaria's chambers the color filter is really dark, whereas in Road of Sacrifices the hair looks a lot brighter and more similar to the creation screen one.
[]Fashion Souls is best Souls.
Compatibility:
-
[]Compatible with the awesome Dark Souls Beard Fix - No more patchy beards by mauskal. You need to download the textures under "Optional Files" and overwrite when asked (needs the main mod first).
[
]Incompatible with anything else that modifies the hair and beard textures (let me know if you find one).Installation:
IGP11 by S17L required. Just extract the textures and place them in your override folder.
Please tell me if you find any issue. And of course, feel free to post your results! :)

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-tested with 299 endorsements and 7,303 downloads.
- Easy to install—just drop-in texture files.
- Gives your character a fresh, vibrant look without overhauling the game.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016—may not be compatible with the latest game patches.
- No screenshots or detailed previews in the description, so you're flying blind on the exact color changes.
- Only affects hair textures—if you're looking for more body or face customization, this won't help.
For players who want to add a pop of color to their character's hair without messing with complex mods. If you're into role-playing or just want to stand out in screenshots, this is a quick fix. Skip it if you're on a newer game version or expect more than a texture swap.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this is a texture mod, make sure to place the files in the correct game directory (usually Data/Textures) to avoid conflicts.
- If you're using a mod manager, you can preview the textures before installing to see if you like the colors.
- Check if the mod requires any compatibility patches for your game version—older mods sometimes need manual tweaks.
