Hair Color
Hair Color is one of the stats that determines a character's appearance.
Default Hair Colors
At the beginning of a new game, the player gets to choose between seven hair colors for his/her character:
- Auburn
- Black
- Blonde
- Brown
- Gray
- Red
- White
This can be changed by various items and scenes throughout the game.
Effect
Hair color also affects the color of any fur and/or feathers the character may gain throughout the game. It is permanent (unles overridden by a new effect) and also affects new hair growth.
Usually hair color remains an independent cosmetic detail, included in the character description and sometimes displayed in the Character Viewer, but with no effect on other aspects of the game. There are some exceptions though:
- The result of letting a Sand Witch put a spell on you is different if you already have sandy blonde hair from an earlier encounter with her.
- Visiting the Corrupted Glade while having green hair and one or more penises may give you one or more tentacle penises. You may want to use hair dyes (or visit the Sand Witch) between visits to the glade to avoid this.
- Children you have with Amily will have fur the same color as your hair. This is the only aspect where there is even a minor difference between the seven default hair colors.
- Shiny black and black and yellow hair increases the character's Bee Score. That is, these two hair colors are among the factors that determines whether a character is a bee-morph or not.
Changing Hair Color
Hair color is usually changed by using various Hair Dyes that can be bought from Rathazul or at the Salon or found as drops from various monsters. There are also several other items and scenes that can change the character's hair color. The range of possible colors from other effects include several not available as dyes.

Notes about hair colors in the Character Viewer
- Blonde nuances: The various nuances of blonde do not seem to be supported by the viewer but since the default hair color is regular blonde, the result is fairly close anyway.
- Black nuances: The three different nuances of black, regular, midnight and shiny look the same in the viewer.
- Pink: Using pink hair dye sets the hair color to "Neon Pink" which is displayed in the viewer. However the Save Editor's hair color menu specifies the color as "Pink" which is not supported by the viewer. You can type hair color manually in the editor though.
Character Viewer
The Character Viewer currently supports all dye colors and also some of the others. When a color isn't supported, the viewer defaults to blonde.
Save Editing
Other hair colors can be specified by Save Editing, either manually or with the Save Editor. Hair color data is just a text string that is inserted into the character description and can be set to anything you like.
