📋 About This Mod
What started as a project for more pleasing ginger and auburn shades quickly turned into something much, much more! I've gone and touched up every color brought to us by bethesda, including the hair dyes from Nuka World.
I've aimed to keep these hair colors realistic, though tending towards more vibrant tones, as to keep them all visually distinct from one another.
While the screenshots were taken with an ENB, all the colors have been tested with vanilla lighting and will look quite similar in tone.
Two files are available, one covering the Bethesda colors, and an optional file that will overhaul the colors added by the Looksmenu Customization Compendium (which is required to use the colors.)
v2 adjusts the Silver shade from Bethesda, though the previous, darker version (visible here) is still available under 'Old Files'
Works well alongside my other hair mods:
