About this mod
New high-quality face and head appearances for various types of characters without a plugin (.esp) file. Heads and facial features like eyes, ears, noses, mouths, tongues, teeth, eyebrows, eyelashes, facial hair, hair, and wigs have upscaled textures. Most friendly, neutral, and enemy characters feature improved appearances.

HD Head and Face Textures is a lighter alternative to larger character overhaul mods that use plugins, focusing on the head and hair.
FEATURES
Characters like humans, raiders, ghouls, tribals, and marked men have detailed, high-quality face appearances. These upscaled head and facial appearances can be seen on the player character, non-playable characters, companions, and enemies. Upscaled heads, mouths, tongues, ears, noses, teeth, faces, skin, hair, facial hair, eyelashes, and eyebrows for all characters. Wigs also have upscaled textures. Severed and mutilated head parts on corpses have upscale textures. All textures feature machine learning upscaling and compression artifact editing. All textures are heavily inspired by vanilla (default) textures so other HD retextures should blend right in.
INSTALLATION
Install the latest main file. For manual installation, extract the file to your game’s data folder. For a mod manager installation, install the file with your preferred mod manager. You can use a mod manager to hide unwanted files, but this mod was intended to be played as is.
COMPATIBILITY
This mod will conflict with any mod that modifies heads, faces, and hair such as Simple Female Vanilla Raider Hair De-Uglification, Grillz, HQ Brows Drumber, Hall of Face, HQ Professional Head Models, and High Poly Male Head Resource as well as eye replacer mods like High-Res Eyes, Brand New Eyes Eye Texture, Elysian Eyes, Real Eyes, Bizarre Eyes, Cataract Eyes, Sparkling Eyes, Soulful Eyes NV, and Hi-Res Eyes Replacer. This mod does not make any changes to the meshes, only textures. This mod supports Tale of Two Wastelands.
RECOMMENDED
The apparel mods More Classic Fallout Outfits, All Non DLC Clothing Retex, and All DLC Clothing Retex are recommended (and also used in the screenshot images on this page), giving a quick overall visual upgrade for characters when combined with this mod.
This mod is meant to maintain the wasteland aesthetic with dirty appearances for skin, teeth, and hair. If you prefer clean appearances use Natural Eyes and HD Teeth and Eyebrows.
To reduce hair gloss and shine, use Vanilla Hair No Shine and load it after HD Head and Face Textures.
If you plan on using a different mod for hair or eye textures, load those mods after HD Head and Face Textures.
Users of HD Head and Face Textures may enjoy my other texture mods Colorful Radiation Suit Textures, Alternate Mr. House Body and Chamber Textures, Rare Spore Carrier Species Textures, HD Raven and Vulture Textures, HD Miscellaneous Musical Object Textures, HD Miscellaneous Utility Object Textures, HD Miscellaneous War Object Textures, and HD Memorial and Monument Textures.
KNOWN ISSUES
Issues with the seams where the scalp blends into the hair and translucent edges around seen through hair strands. Visual modifications such as HDR, bloom, volumetric fog, distant fog, lighting may result in visual errors along edges of hair strands. Large visual utilities like ENBs, ReShade, and New Vegas Reloaded might also have visual errors.
PLANNED FEATURES
A dirtier version featuring HD textures for weathered hair, dirty skin, and stained teeth is planned.
