Hide helmet option

Can anyone confirm please what will happen to the hide helmet option once the patch and DLC goes live?
From the patch notes published I read that the hide helmet option will be removed from the settings menu and will be assigned to the outfit slot.

If I only will have one free slot per account how will that affect my characters?
Will only one character of mine be able to hide the helmet (the one who uses that one outfit slot) and the other characters have no chance without buying outfit for them as well?
Or can any of my character who is not interested in transmog at all use the newly refurbished dye stations' hide helmet function regardless of them not having outfit slots assigned to them?

Thank you!

    Free slot is per character

    There's two ways to hide a helmet in Update 17; the new Hat option in Costumes, or the 'No Helm' option in Outfits if you're not wearing a Costume.

    It is almost like different people care about different things.

    Ask yourself. Which one of those options, if I whine and cry and make a fuss about on the forums, do I have a hope and a prayer of getting ZOS to change?
    Answer: If whining and crying and making a fuss made an ounce of difference to how ZOS fixes the gameplay and class balance, it would have been fixed a long time ago.

    Mousing over, it looks like the Hide Your Helm costume hat in collections and the Hide Helm outfit station option, tooltips and titles aside, are supposed to work the same way, but with the collections one being about hiding more than just outfit headgear, I think.

    The Outfit System: Basics Guide has a pretty succinct rundown on things hat-wise. I think, when in doubt, opt for the collections Hide Your Helm one. I know I probably will...

    Too sad they didn't add an option to toggle the guild tabard over or under your outfit/costume.

    Ye, like return setting of hide helmet but since we can hide it other way - change it into toggle tabard off/on.

    One thing to note from ESO Live on the past Friday.

    You will no longer be able to hide headgear on polymorphs with the new system.

    They also sort of added a vague "yet" comment after they said that. That doesn't mean they are going to do it, but they are at least aware of it enough to consider that it is something they might want to address.

    Ah, thanks I missed that bit.
