📋 About This Mod
This mod provides KS Hairdos for all adult human and mer NPCs added by Populated Skyrim Hell Edition. This mod does not affect children, Khajiit, or Argonians.
This mod also applies several other fixes to NPC head meshes - a similar set of fixes as Vanilla NPCs SSE Ruhmastered by Ruhadre.
Please be aware that Populated Skyrim Hell Edition adds thousands of NPCs to the game, and this mod's download file size is large because this mod includes 2315 replacement NPC head meshes.
Requirements
This mod has only one requirement, Populated Skyrim Hell Edition.
This mod does not require KS Hairdos. This mod includes copies of all the textures from KS Hairdos that it uses.
Load Order Placement
This mod includes one ESL-flagged ESP file KSHairForPopulated.esp, which should be listed in your load order immediately after Populated Skyrim Legendary.esp.
Compatibility
This mod is designed for maximum compatibility with your load order and with other mods.
This mod includes an ESL-flagged ESP file, for minimal impact on your load order slots.
The ESP file is empty, meaning it contains zero records. The ESP file only serves to load the corresponding BSA file, and to indicate that this mod depends on Populated Skyrim Hell Edition.
This mod is compatible with KS Hairdos, but does not require KS Hairdos. This mod includes copies of all the textures from KS Hairdos that it uses, packaged into a BSA file.
This mod is compatible with any texture replacers for KS Hairdos, such as Salt and Wind - Rough Hair for KS Hairdos SE. This mod uses the same texture file paths as KS Hairdos, so any mod that replaces textures for KS Hairdos will also affect this mod.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 246 endorsements and over 7,000 downloads.
- ESL-flagged means it won't eat your mod slots—nice for load order hoarders.
- No override records keeps it lightweight and less likely to clash with other NPC overhauls.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects Populated Skyrim Hell Edition NPCs—if you don't use that mod, this does nothing.
- Last updated in 2020, so it might be outdated for current Skyrim versions or other mods.
- Compatibility risk with other mods that alter the same NPCs or hair styles.
For Skyrim players who use Populated Skyrim Hell Edition and want those added NPCs to have better hair. If you're not using that mod, skip it—this is purely cosmetic and niche.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Populated Skyrim Hell Edition installed first, or this mod won't have any NPCs to affect.
- Since it's ESL-flagged, you can safely place it anywhere in your load order, but putting it after other NPC overhauls helps ensure its changes stick.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install—it's a simple drop-in, but a manager keeps things tidy.
