📋 About This Mod

Probably won't do much if you don't have Strand Hair turned on (requires Lighting Quality to be set to High, then Strand Hair turned on.)

If you use a hair-swap mod for one of the companions, make sure to load that after this to fix issues with it going wonky donky.

Will be working on more hairstyles as I can :)

(P. S. Thank you to everyone who's taken the time to share their pictures of their Rooks/Inquisitors with their hairstyles- it really makes my day to see.)

(P. P. S. Why are they all so hot?? 👀 )

There is also now an alternative option to this mod, for those who might prefer that :) Better white hair - light colors by Xynyxx

To install, unzip and drop the .fbmod file into Frosty Mod Manager.

⚠️ Cons

🎯 Is This For You?

📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since the mod affects hair colors, check it in the character creator's lighting—some angles may still show shadows.
  • If you use other hair mods, load this one after them to ensure it takes priority.
  • Make a backup of your original hair files before installing, just in case you want to revert.
