Tired with opening RaceMenu every time you want to change the Dragonborn hair styles and color?
If you wish you could save a few favorite hairstyles into a list and let a voice ability to cycle and apply the hair change, then this is the mod for you!

I've created this mod since no one else has made it previously. It is quite irritating for me to run showracemenu console command every time I want to change the hairstyle of my Dragonborn to avoid clipping issue or to match the style with the other armors/outfits that I want to equip. It takes a long time to scroll through the hairstyles, trying hard to remember on which hairstyle that I usually like to use (if you have something like KS Hairdos mod, you'll know what I mean). Not very immersive and wasting a lot of time just for a silly hair searching. And thus, this mod is born and I would like to share it with everyone who want this, too! :)

What this mod do:
Add 5 new voice abilities automatically to your shouts inventory when you load or start a new game:

- Hairstyles Add Hair --> This is to add the current Dragonborn's hair to the saved hairstyle list and also set the current Dragonborn's hair color. Also, if the hair color is not from the vanilla Skyrim colors, it will be added to the hair color list. This way, you need not to worry about using a custom hair color. But do take note if you uninstall the custom hair color mod where you have saved some of that colors to the list, you might need to do the "Hairstyles Reset List" (as described below) to avoid any crash/bug/unwanted behaviors.

- Hairstyles --> To cycle through the saved hairstyle list you have created and apply the hair change immediately. Each time you activate the ability, it will take the next hairstyle based from the saved hairstyle list. If end of list is reached, it will return back to the first item in the list. What this means is, bye-bye RaceMenu! :D

- Hairstyles Remove Hair --> This is to remove the current Dragonborn's hair from the saved hairstyle list, if there's any.

- Hairstyles Reset List --> This is to do a master reset to your saved hairstyle list. Useful when you want to start from scratch again or when you need to troubleshoot any technical issues with the game.

- Hairstyles Color --> This will cycle through the 15 vanilla Skyrim hair colors and apply the effect immediately to the Dragonborn.

Alternative Mod Version With Eyes Color Shouts Now Available!!!
You can also download the mod version that comes with additional 4 shouts for changing eyes color (total 9 new shouts).
Added the mod with eyes version upon request. Basically it's the same function as with the hairstyles shouts, but for the eyes color!
Please help to endorse if you like my mod! :)

Requirements:
Latest Skyrim version and latest SKSE version in order for this mod to run. No DLCs required.

Installation:
Mod Organizer is highly recommended.
Manual installation is straightforward, just unzip the file to the Data folder in Skyrim installation folder, as per usual.

If you like a control to hide or show the editing spells (Add, Remove and Reset List), you can download the separate zipped file and just follow the readme in the zipped file.

How To Use:
You will still need to use showracemenu for a few times from your Skyrim console, just for the initial setup.
Basically it goes like this:
1. Open the RaceMenu, select the hair style you wish to add to the saved list.
2. Close the RaceMenu, activate the "Hairstyles Add Hair" shout to save the hairstyle to the saved list.
3. Rinse and repeat the step 1 and 2 as many times you like until you are satisfied with the saved list collection.
4. You are ready to use the "Hairstyles" shout and cycle through the saved hairstyle list!
5. Additionally, in case you want to remove certain hair from the list, cycle through the hair (or you can also use the RaceMenu again), then activate "Hairstyles Remove Hair" shout to remove it.
7. Enjoy! :)

Known Limitation:
The list is an object managed by the Skyrim system.
When removing a hair from the list, the behavior with the Skyrim system is to shift the last item in the list to the removed item position.
Example: If you have the hair list as [A, B, C, D, E] and you remove hair B, the new list order will be [A, E, C, D]

End Note:
This is my first mod creation. Pardon with my English as it's not my mother tongue.
I won't be as active to respond, so please pardon me if I'm not checking any posts/requests for a long time.
And apologize that I won't entertain any further mod change requests, except if there's a major bug reported in the existing functionality.

I am giving permission for everyone to modify my mod as you wish, the script source codes are provided as well in the mod package for your own usage.
If you are uploading a mod based from this one, please don't forget to put a credit with my mod! :)
Cheers to all the Dragonborn fellows!
