@FatsharkJulia could you perhaps let us know (after checking with the team) if it’s something that you can easily fix (and thus we should wait on you) - or the change was permanent and we are better to not waste any time waiting and just choose some other hair color manually? Wouldn’t want to start changing it for nothing on all my 8 characters, if it’s possible to revert it back.

Issue Description (Required):

My Veteran originally had white hair color but after today’s update, I noticed the hair is black. So visited Krall to have it back to white but the first 4 hair colors are all black. I guess someone messed up the enumerator. White hair option is no longer there.

This beatiful man was proper ginger before the patch, now he is not. I noticed other colours are also incorrectly reflected on the character.

Same issue with my Zealot he use the white color for both hair and beard and he has black hair and brown beard now.

another one of these strange bugs. my karen had suddenly black hair, but i could change it back to the white sister bob.

My Ogryn had beautiful orange locks until this patch! Now it’s black, guess things did get a lil toasty last mission :grin:

Seems to be a common occurrence, every character on my end as well has had all their Sienna and Kerillian hairs turned jet black


My beautiful lad looks like he had a failed hair dye job lol

I can’t find the previous topic related to this issue, for some reason. So the issue with the characters’ hair colors still persists? I can’t use the color I used before, it’s shown as black now when applied, while preview shows it as ginger/orange. Any news when we’ll get our hair colors back?
