📋 About This Mod
Description
I am the type of the guy who does not like shagged or long hairstyle, and i dislike any kind of beards (maybe except friendly muttonchops for the fun's sake), thus I got insulted by Yennefer saying that I had grown a beard even though i had not.
For this reason, I checked the game files - and voila - I found out that Yennefer was supposed to have a different line for clean shaved Geralt.
This mod is made for myself, and since I made it for myself, I decided to also post it in here. If you've already attended the Kaer Trolde feast or if you like having beard, this mod is useless for you. Also, xLetalis is kinda running out of witcher 3 videos/hidden facts, so if he stumbles upon this, I think he would be able to make an entire video about this line haha :D
Cause of the bug
Geralt has an invisible equipment slot for his "head" - that is, beard length/style, and for his hairstyle. The conversation's conditions were that Geralt was supposed to have either clear shaved head, or clear shaved head with a tattoo, in his inventory. The correct condition, however, is for Geralt to have any of those "heads" equipped instead of inside his inventory - this I fixed. Of course, if you do have any facial hairstyle except being clear shaven, Yennefer will comment about you having a beard, even if it's just the stubble.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved fix (511 endorsements) for a dialogue bug that breaks immersion.
- Lightweight and does exactly what it says—no bloat.
- Still relevant for players who notice this detail, even years after release.
⚠️ Cons

For Witcher 3 players who pay attention to dialogue details and want consistency in character interactions.

💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using the Steam or GOG version, manually drop the mod folder into your 'Mods' directory in the game's installation folder.
- Make sure to check if the mod works with the next-gen update—if not, look for an updated version or use a script merger if needed.
- Since it's a dialogue fix, you'll need to load a save before the conversation with Yennefer to see the change.
