About

This mod adds some new ponytail hairstyles for your female characters. This is a stand-alone mod and will not conflict with any other hair mods you're using. These hairs were designed primarily for human females. They can be used on males and other races, but results may vary. Please remember to endorse and leave a comment, and post your images!

Install

Unpack the archive to your "skyrim/data" folder and enable "AzarHair.esm". The hairs will now be available in your game's character creation menu.

IMPORTANT: for people upgrading to 2.5 or above from previous versions, disable "AzarHair.esp" before installing. In game, your will need to go into the character creation menu (~ key, then type "showracemenu") and choose your hair again. The ESM format will allow you to equip the hairs on NPCs, which was not possible before.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I change the hairstyle of my existing character?
Type "showracemenu" in your console (~ key). This will bring you to the character creation menu, where you can change your hairstyle. To avoid crashing your game, do this in an interior, such as Breezehome, and unequip all of your gear.

The hair doesn't show up in the character creation menu. How do I fix this?
Make sure you've installed the mod properly. The "mesh" and "texture" folders should be under your "Skyrim/data" folder, and AzarHair.esm should be enabled in your mod manager.

Is this compatable with other hair mods?
Yes. This is a stand-alone mod.

Can I use these hairs on non-humans or males?
Yes, however there may be clipping, as I designed these mainly for human females. I may do a proper conversion in the future.

Can I use your hairs in my mod?
Drop me a line and ask for permission.

Do you take requests?
I mod for myself. However If you have any good ideas for ponytail-themed hairs, let me know.

Will you be animating the hair?
I am currently looking into this.
