📋 About This Mod
UPDATE 1-4-'16: New version for every race (v1. 1), removed some weird-moving hair bits and improved the overall mesh a bit. Please redownload and replace the old version with this one.
If there's one hairstyle I like the most from Origins, it has to be the double-bun hairstyle (aka Anora's hair). It's classy, fun, and a bit medieval wacky.
So, I tried recreating this hairstyle for Inquisition, and now your Inquisitors can wear their hair Origins/Anora style! Also, since this replaces the vanilla bun hairstyle, queen Anora will use this hair in-game as well. Makes her retain her Origins look a bit more, which I personally like. She just wasn't the same without her buns.
Bear in mind that this is the first mesh mod/hairstyle I've ever made, so it's not perfect. But if you're suffering from a bit of DAO nostalgia, like me, you might like it :)
- Available for HF, EF and DF
- Replaces the standard bun hairstyle, conflicts with other mods that replace the same mesh
- Requires ultra mesh settings
- Requires patch 8 or higher
- Use Mod Manager for installation
- Looks best with hair re-texture mods
DLC info: Works fine in Jaws of Hakkon and the Descent. In Trespasser, only the Elf and Dwarf versions work in all scenes. See this guide for more info on Trespasser hair mod compatibility: https://imgur.com/See3sXl
