📋 About This Mod
∙ H A T - F R I E N D L Y H A I R S T Y L E S ∙
This mod provides a solution to display hairstyles under hats that originally didn't support it, by "calling" another compatible hairstyle (such as the low ponytail) when wearing a hat. While this approach worked well for some hairstyles, others required additional editing to ensure a better fit, especially those with bangs.
To be noted, buns clips through the brim of wide-brimmed hats. That's why I used the low ponytail for most of the hairstyles.
