About this mod
In the same vein as KS Lite or Immersive, Reduced lowers the total number of hairs and removes those that clip into the body un-immersively. The same methodology has also been applied to HG Hairdos.

I’ve provided two options for both hair mods, one drastically reduced and a less reduced option. The current hair counts are 215 female hairs and 77 male hairs for the drastically reduced option. The less-reduced option contains 349 female hairs and 99 male hairs. As for criteria used to decide what to cut, basically, it boiled down to redundancy, practicality, uniqueness, and lack of torso clipping. Meaning there’s enough variety offered in both options to satisfy most casual character creators.
Some differences from the previous iterations of KS Hairdos Lite are that all hairs were selected from scratch, meaning older hairstyles weren’t prioritized over recent additions. Longer hair options have been retained as I tested clipping extensively on my own personal UUNP preset. Compatibility is retained with mods dependent on KS Hairdos, similar to KS Hairdos 1.7 Salt and Wind. Meaning it should be easy enough to re-enable a hairstyle if you feel its exclusion wasn’t warranted. Lastly, HG hairstyles were chosen to reduce overlap and synergize with KS when using both together.
Otherwise, yeah, just another version of KS Hairdo’s Lite. Download if you need it or want to check out the hair choices.
Oh, yeah, in regards to the mod image, it was just because I didn’t want to post another image of the default Nord lady in her prison clothes. Lastly, the user-submitted images (if you can see them as Nexus is being weird) are of the original version of HG Hairdos without my plugin replacer (links to that version can be found in the stickied post in the comments).
