We can dye armor why can't we dye our hair? I also think we should be able to change it. I can understand being stuck with one face since it is not realistic to change it but I don't understand why we can't change our hair or use dye on it.
It's almost as annoying as not having enough long hair options for males.

I think that one of the bigger updates should include full in-game styling options. And there's one primary reason why.

When I'm playing as a character and I've gone through a certain amount of the game, I might get tired of that character's hair or face or whatever. But if I've been playing for hours already, the only way to make the change would be to begin again with a new character. And starting the game over and over again can be a pain, unless you're actually changing jobs as well.

So I think it would be great to have some kind of in-game plastic surgeon, lol. I mean, somewhere where you can change your hair style, colour and even your face and skin tone (but not your armor, as armor affects stats and so on).

Even if making these changes were to be considerably expensive, I think it'd be worthwhile. I can imagine the developers adding new hair styles and colours and stuff as time goes by, perhaps even at different prices or something. There's no reason why this type of addition couldn't be done in a similar fashion to dye (ie: something market-based).

Considering that these changes are cosmetic and do not have an impact on a character's stats, I don't really think there's much danger in adding a very significant in-game styling option. It'd certainly keep me playing more regularly and pushing my existing characters even further.

My idea also was a hairdresser. I have a thread bout is somewhere. Found it..: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...d.php?t=101535. There are some nice reactions there too, so if this was your idea and you want to know more about it, try to read my thread.

The idea of more character customization (even specifically hair) has been brought up many times before, while search might not be working that's no idea not to check the Index thread stickied at the top of this forum---the one you're supposed to read before posting a new thread.

Please post things like this in existing topics about the idea, our friend Hendorr's already gone through the trouble of finding a good one for you.
