📋 About This Mod
This is a thing that has bugged me for the longest time, since I do a lot of male NPCs and always use KS Hairdos (which is an awesome mod and I will always be grateful to kalilies for sharing with all of us!) - there are a few of the hairstyles that look a bit weird because the scalp doesn't line up with the hairline and this became even more evident when I started to use an ENB.
I had no idea how to fix it before since I'm a total noob with editing meshes but then I realized that the issue was the scalp head part.
Since there are 2 types of scalps, curly and straight, that have a slightly different hairline, I just tried to swap some of those to make for a smother transition with the hair on the forehead.
Maybe you won't even notice and think I'm crazy or maybe you won't like it, but this fix will make my life better for the next male NPCs I'll make and since it's such a small change and light plugin I thought I could share with all my fellow hair-obsessed modders :D
I fixed 10 hairstyles, you can see them in the pictures both human and Elf version.
You'll need the last version of KS Hairdos (1. 9).
Let me know if you have some issues or find other things you'd like to change, I'll see what I can do.
Permissions are open so feel free to implement these fixes in all your mods with my blessing :D
