Wigs - so followers can use KS Hairdos with HDT physics
DESCRIPTION: This mod allows followers to use Stealthic’s and Kalilies’ beautifully crafted KS Hairdos with HDT Physics by crafting wigs. The “wigs” are essentially helmets that are craftable at the sky forge in Whiterun (located behind Jorvaskr, the companions home in Whiterun). Since they are helmets, they can be tempered and enchanted. Circlets may be worn with the wigs.
There are currently 47 HDT KS Hairdos adapted to wigs: Amor, Angels, Anto92, Baby Doll, Baby Doll with band, Bluebird, Cambrian, Crescent, Desperate, Didar, Freesia, Galaxy, Gecko, Harvest, Icarus, Kerli, Kikyo, Koala, Lotus, Metropolis, Metropolis2, Milliet, Moonrise, Only You, Paraguay, Rosie Cloud, Searching, Starlet, Sky 022, 033, 097, 146, 176, 188, 201, 208, 239, 250, Summer Haze, Sweet Villain, Tell Me, Tonight, Traveler, Vapor, Vice City and Wine.
Each wig comes in black, blonde, brunette, chestnut, red and white (276 wigs in all). You can now assign a wig with any outfit if you use an outfit manager such as found with Amazing Follower Tweaks (AFT).
Also included is a "Harvest Feather Circlet" that enables the lovely KS Harvest hairdo feathers to be worn with any KS Hairdo.
NON-HDT OPTION: For those who do not like the HDT version, there is a non-HDT version that currently boasts 22 converted KS Hairdos, Aquaria, Butterfly 091, Cadence, Candle, Cassy, Cliché, Heaventide, HeaventidePB, Macho, Sky 033, 201, 275, Sleepwalking, Sweet Scar, Temptress, Titanium, Top Gorgeous, Vapor, Veteran, Wakeup, Wishingtree and Zombrex. There are a couple of wigs that will work for both males and females (Veteran and Macho) and one male only wig (Zombrex).
CURRENT VERSIONS:
HDT VERSION 4. 0: As of Version 4. 0, two new HDT hair styles, Vapor and Crescent, have been converted per request. Also to address complaints about the mod cluttering the crafting menu, the wigs can now only be crafted at the Skyforge in Whiterun.
NEW NON-HDT Version 1. 025 is here! The new hairdos include the requested Butterfly 091, Cadence, Candle, Cliché, Heaventide, HeaventidePB, Sleepwalking, Sky 275, Temptress, Titanium, and Wakeup. That is 66 more wigs for non-HDT enthusiasts. The Wigs now can only be created at the Skyforge in Whi

- Adds a ton of hairstyle variety to followers and NPCs.

For Skyrim players who want to give their followers more hairstyle options and don't mind a bit of setup. If you're into character customization and use KS Hairdos already, this is a must-have. Skip if you're not interested in cosmetic changes or don't want to deal with potential compatibility issues.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have KS Hairdos and HDT physics installed first, or the wigs won't work.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to keep track of the files.
- Test the wigs on a follower in-game to see if they clip; if they do, try adjusting the wig's position with the console.
