There are 3 files to choose from:

1. One for replacing loosely gathered.. hairstyle. Only the geometry

2. One for replacing shaved ponytail hairstyle. Only the geometry

3. And one for if you want Geralt's hair to be shaved on the sides (this file only replaces the face textures), this one only works in pair with number 1 or 2.

Some example:

If you want to keep the hair short(not shaved) on the sides, download either 1. or 2.

If you want the hair to be shaved on the sides, download either 1 or 2 and 3 as well.
