🛡️ Why I need this
Solves one problem – keeps your character and companions looking perfect in any situation.
A familiar annoyance: you find a great hairstyle, but in combat you have to wear a helmet – and all that style is ruined, either clipping through or looking messy. This mod automatically switches to a helmet-friendly hairstyle when you equip headgear and restores your original look when you take it off.

📦 How it Works
Simply and elegantly. On first run, the mod saves your primary hairstyle. Then, through an easy menu, you choose a backup style (a short cut, ponytail, or any other) to be shown under helmets. An automatic script handles everything else.
No more manual work. Equip a helmet – your "combat" hairstyle appears. Remove it – your regular style returns. The system works instantly and seamlessly.

🤖 Works on NPCs Too
