📋 About This Mod
Normally beard grows in 4 stages, this mod will stop growth after selected one.
Tired of Santa Claus Geralt? Make your beard grow to length you want and let it stay that way. Shave and let it grow again.
Similar to rustine's Beard Lock Mod, except this one does not replace all beards with selected one and allows growth until desired length.
For always shaved, you might use NoBeard version of rustine's mod.
Update:
Renamed to "Beard Growth Lock" instead of "Moderated Beard Growth". Reason for this is more accurate description, as it truly locks beard from growing past selected stage and thus making more sense.
Update2:
Added fix for hairworked beard with HoS mark. Now loads properly Stage2 beard after Stage1 (stubble) instead of Stage4 (fullbeard).
Big thanks to CAPA14 and rfuzzo for helping me fixing it.
