📋 About This Mod
For a character that wears a hood about 50% of the time outdoors, that one better have hair under the hood. +Immersion
LOAD ORDER:
This must overwrite Refined Volkihars.
This mod's ESP is ESL flagged, modifies the hood item, fixes the hair color mismatch, and otherwise stays faithful to version 1. 2. 1 (initially) of Refined Volkihars. So, this mod makes Refined Volkihars lightweight or ESPFE.
COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER REPLACERS:
The ESP is specific to Refined Volkihars. This mod does not include FaceGen data. So, directly it won't be.
RECOMMENDED MODS:
The Eyes Of Beauty - Vampire Eyes SSE

^ The glowing red version was used in the screenshots.
CAN I USE THIS ON CONSOLES?
The only major console that allows these kinds of mods is Xbox One. Yes.
This one may not need new textures, but it does need new models. So, PS4 is out.

For Skyrim players who use Refined Volkihars' Serana and want her to keep her hair while wearing a hood. It's a tiny immersion fix that adds visual consistency. Skip if you don't use that Serana overhaul or if you prefer hoods that hide hair entirely.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Refined Volkihars' Serana installed first, then overwrite the hood meshes with this mod's files.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle the file replacement and avoid manual errors.
- If you see clipping, check your load order—this mod should load after the Serana overhaul.
