Questions?
Khajiit has answers.
Does this mod affect the hairstyles from KS Hairdos HDT SMP?
Nope! Each hairstyle uses its own custom mesh and collision data, and won't interfere with the regular non-khajiit versions. Textures are shared though - if you change the textures for KS Hairdos, it will also affect this mod.
How can I use these on an existing character or save file?
Open the character customization window by typing showracemenu into your game console. Select your new hairstyle, save your changes, and go!
How come my hair clips through my body when I move?
You need to set up the body collisions for KS Hairdos HDT SMP in BodySlide. This mod uses the same collision data. See their mod page if you need instructions.
Does load order matter?
Yes, load this mod after KS Hairdos.
I see some clipping or gaps in one of the hairstyles.
Head sculpts and slider settings that deviate significantly from the default head shape might cause this. In most cases you can make some minor adjustments with RaceMenu sculpting to fix it. If you think the hair itself is the problem, let me know and I'll do my best to fix it!
What about custom races?
These will work on any custom race that is considered a Khajiit by the game, including Lykaios. I can't guarantee how well the hairstyles will fit any race that has a differently shaped head mesh though.
ESL tagged?
I'm using an older version of Skyrim and this mod won't work!
Try installing BEES; it adds support for ESL-tagged files to older game versions. <

[]Install KS Hairdos HDT SMP.[/]
Adds 93 HDT-SMP physics hairstyles for female Khajiit in Skyrim, with options for wigs, male Khajiit, and no physics. Requires KS Hairdos - HDT SMP and is also usable on Lykaios. A niche cosmetic mod with 183 endorsements.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid niche pick with 183 endorsements and over 36k downloads—clearly some Khajiit players love it.
- 93 hairstyles is a hefty amount for a race-specific mod, giving plenty of variety.
- Flexible options: wigs, male support, and no-physics versions mean you can tailor it to your setup.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires KS Hairdos - HDT SMP, so you're adding another mod to your load order.
- Only affects Khajiit—if you play other races, this won't help you.
- HDT-SMP physics can be performance-heavy on lower-end rigs, so watch your FPS.
For Skyrim players who main Khajiit and want their character to have flowing, physics-enabled hair without settling for vanilla options. Also great for Lykaios fans. Skip if you don't play Khajiit or prefer non-physics hair to avoid performance hits.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have HDT-SMP (CBP physics) installed and working before adding this mod, or the hair won't move.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file structure—manual install can get messy with multiple options.
- Test the wigs on a saved game before committing—some wig styles might clip with certain head shapes.
