📋 About This Mod
THIS IS A MODDER'S RESOURCE. Please do not ask for help beyond what is provided. If you need CharGen help, please ask the folks on the compiler page or in the modder's section of Nexus. I cannot help you; this file is for the preservation of BSN projects that have open and/or builder files.
As the description says I plan to add more hairstyles for Dragon Age: Origins and Awakening. This project intends to make hairstyles not only for adult characters but also for the younger models (Children).
This mod is a work in occasional progress.
************************************************************************************
None of this work is original. I found it during my meanderings across the web. Therefore you don't need my permission to use this stuff.
All I ask is that you don't take credit for things you didn't create. Sounds fair doesn't it? :P
*********************************************************************************
Disclaimer: I did not create these textures or 3d models. All I'm doing is making these hairstyles I have found on the net usable for DA

A modder's resource for Dragon Age: Origins and Awakening, adding new hairstyles for adult and child character models. With 2,259 endorsements and 209,973 downloads, it's a popular base for modders, though it hasn't been updated since 2016.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust (2,259 endorsements) — this is a go-to resource for hair mods.
- Massive download count (209,973) shows it's been used in tons of load orders.
- Covers both adults and kids, which is rare — most hair mods skip the younger models.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016 — might have compatibility issues with newer mods or DLC.
- It's a resource, not a plug-and-play mod — you'll need to know how to implement it.
- No actual hairstyle previews in the description, so you're flying blind until you test it.
For Dragon Age modders who want to expand hair options for both adults and children. If you're a player just looking to install new hairs, this might be too technical — it's meant as a foundation for other mods. Skip if you want ready-to-use hairs without modding knowledge.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this is a modder's resource, you'll likely need to use the Dragon Age toolset to integrate the hairs into your own mods.
- Check the mod's forum posts for community-made patches or tutorials — the description is sparse, but the community often fills in the gaps.
- If you're on PC, make sure your game is fully patched to the latest version to avoid conflicts with older mods.
