FAQ:

===================================================
How to change the hair on your existing character:
===================================================
On PC, open console(`) and type showracemenu -enter- It brings up the character customization menu.
- Make sure you are in the third person view before editing your character, otherwise you will be invisible, and unable to see the changes made on your character
showracemenu- will NOT modify your attributes/skills/points/etc. unless you change the race, sex, or select a preset from the list.
Modifying purely cosmetic things like hair will leave your points unchanged.If the character moves it's hands in front like they were tied,
it's a clear indication that the skills will be messed up,if the hands remain parallel to the body it's fine.
A way to fix the modified attributes error is to simply re-equip your gear.
You also need to re-enter (or change) your name.

===================================
How to change the hair on NPC:
===================================
Note-there is a bug in the Creation Kit that makes the NPC that you make changes to have color mismatch (Face/Body)
follow these guidelines to avoid the problem.

======================
Creation Kit version:
======================
This is how I fixed the color mismatch on Lydia after changing her hair.


Lydias Steele armor by Killer Keos http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=3654

Open Creation Kit with Skyrim.esm and ApachiiSkyHair.esm selected but not as active.
Locate the pre-existing NPC you want to give new hair.

Edit the Actor > Character Gen Parts tab.

Under Base Head Parts list select the Apachii hair you want your character to use

Choose preview full on your character,
if you choose preview head the hair does not show on the character

Error messages about the tri files, just ignore the messages - click OK and continue.

Close the characters window.

In the Object Window, find the base Actor you've just edited.
With the Actor selected in the list, press ctrl+F4. Click "Yes" when prompted to export.

This will create 2 new face textures DDS files with the NPCs ID number
(example - 000B997F.dds)in data/Textures/Actors/Character/FaceGenData/FaceTint/Skyrim.esm.

It also creates a head meshes with the NPCs ID number(example - 000B997F.NIF)
in Data/meshes/actors/character/FaceGenData/FaceGeom/Skyrim.esm

Keep the meshes and textures.

Make a plugin with the character changes.


Companion Vorstag with Male hair 18

Why do I have color mismatch on NPC faces after installing an NPC mod that uses your hairs?
If you have an NPC changing mod that is made with the CK you have to also install
all the created - exported- head meshes and face textures - face tints for every changed NPC or else every changed NPC will have a grey-green face.
Make sure you install all the files from the NPC mod.
http://www.creationkit.com/Dark_Face_Bug


Why can't I load skyrim.ESM and ApachiiHair.ESM at the same time in the CK?
Add bAllowMultipleMasterLoads=1 under [General] in CreationKit.ini in your /Skyrim folder.
Or create a text file called CreationKitCustom.ini and add
 [General] 
bAllowMultipleMasterLoads=1



The mod is not working, no hairs shows up in the showracemenu?
Possible problem that you may have:
1-Not activated the mod 
2-Have not installed all the files



My character gets bald when using a helmet, what can be done to fix this?

You have to install my ApachiiHelmetWigs_v_1_0 under optional files.
Equipable Wigs for use under helmet and hats.
Craft them at the forge or get them for free from a barrel outside Riften Stable.

What mod is the hats from in your wig mod pictures?
Hats and bandana in the wigs pictures from this mods:
Hats from Bobs Armory Skyrim by Mr Dave
http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/12060
Bandana from Iorveth Armor by L0rd0fWar http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/5588

Why is the long hair or long braids floating above my characters chest?
The hair is made to not clip into my character that uses CBBE curvy heavy body with armor.
