    This would probably be too complicated (I keep trying this in real life as I'm a feisty blonde) but anything similar would be amazing!

    3rd from the bottom is a hideous abomination XD

    You mean the red dreads? I added them because minus the crazy colour, they could look pretty cool, that and we're limited in terms of dreadlock styles.

    @KoshkaMurka, I never spoke out against getting long hair for the game :smile:

    But my point is, many mmos provide better hairstyle options.
    Besides, better looking hairstyles have been requested for a very long time, and they could make some good profits by selling them. So its kinda weird to see what ZOS finally offers... Non-animated ponytail that looks like a wooden stick?

    Give them time, and we will probably get it :) ZOS has not been lucky with clipping/spacing, so might take some time for them to get the long hair done.. And please don't judge stuff before it's even out :) That ponytail is not a finished product, so anything can happen.. Being negative and bad mouthing it even before it enters the game just makes for a bad atmosphere

    But even so...compared to even not graphically amazing hairstyles, their hair is very clay-ified, sort of like the sims 4 but less cartoon like in style. I do love the texture in the last image, though, we need more of that!

      I bought the hairstyles pack which could not be adequately previewed and was so heart broken there was not a single long hairstyle. I am using none of them. It is the only reason I bought it. I could not fathom that in the 90 plus options advertised in the crown store that long hair simply was not one of them.

      you need patience for that - one of our house maids showed me how to do cornrow dreads - this takes, believe it or not, nearly the whole day, with all the preparation and such - 6-10 hours - but the result is stunning - not for me though, I have blonde hair which is not good for that - but it takes much longer to do something like that - so just keep trying and be patient.

      Oblivion and Skyrim character creators were some of the worst ever. Between poor lighting and poor options overall, mods were required.

      Definatly would like to see more long hairs in ESO. The first post of this thread is a very nice one. I'm sure ZOS people play or have seen other games like Guild Wars 2 and Black Desert. Those games are full of nice hairs, especially BDO.

      That new ponytail hairstyle is not even animated, unlike the basic one. :|
      They're charging money for this, after all... Just compare it to what Skyrim mods offer (absolutely for free):
      hair_1_72.jpg

      I recognize many of these hairstyles from The Sims. *cries* Sadly, none of them move and I think that's part of the issue. Of course, as has been pointed out, a lot of the ESO hairs don't move either.

      The loincloth suggest something pre-historic? My first guess was farcry primal

      Actually there are physics addons for those hairstyles. For example:
      http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/70363/?
      http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/52516/?
      Those are quite "heavy" performance-wise, of course, but in ESO they could make at least basic animations.

      Well theyve added those to pts version so I think people are free to share their opinions and give feedback. :)
      And many of forum posters said that they wanted to see something different than those styles... Sounds fair to me, after all, those styles are made to be sold to us players, and the more people will like them (and buy them for their chars), the better for everyone. :)

      It's not fair to compare an MMO to a singleplayer game :smile: Even more unfair when the singleplayer mods are made by players, not the company

      SO it's acceptable that professional development team and artists are creating styles and art that look as if they were sleeping while making these hairstyles, while there are people out there that do not get paid and do it for fun in their moms basement looks absolutely stunning?

      On top of it ZOS is charging premium prices for art that looks as if a art student with a D average is making them.

      I shortened my girl's hair because at character creation I was not to know in advance that long straight hair down her back would:

      show through an equipped shield (non combat)

      show through chairs or when sitting down as in emote

      or clip with high collars on gowns.
