Greetings everyone!
I have had this idea for a while and I thought I could share my thoughts here.
I was thinking that each race could have different accessories to expand the creation and make us look even more unique.
So here’s a few thoughts:
Humans:

  • Males -*
    Different beard options (better variety), scars, face accessories (piercings) and let us adjust the ear size too, hair accessories like bandanas.
    -Females-
    It was requested before, giving female characters an option to choose makeup will add up to creation.
    Lip color, eyeliner color, eye shadow color, eyeliner style, eye shadow style, hair accessories – bandanas, different decorations.

Norn:
-Males-
Giving them more beard options and making them look more Northern would make them look way more unique than they do right now, more longer beard styles, beard accessories, more long hairstyles for them, different hair accessories as well, different scar patterns (one eye, both eyes, lip, nose, cheek, forehead, across the face etc). Tattoo patterns are amazing, scar patterns could be added for the body as well.
Body types need more options, currently I cannot play my Norn due to huge neck and clumsy walking.
-Females-
Just like mentioned with female humans, female Norn need face customization as well (makeup)-different types of it, scar options for face and body, hair accessories – maybe adding an extra braid, or adding some rune-like ’’rings’’ and details on hair would be great.

Sylvari:
-Males-
Considering they are plants, there is so much that can be added to them.
Males could have different types of ‘’beard styles’’ , currently all ’’beards’’ are tied to faces one chooses, which limits the possibility of playing with creation. Adding more branch-like beards, or even moss beard, cactus beard would be really fun to see.
As for hair, accessories would be great. Adding some ’’wooden’’ horns to males would be great, and there could be a large variety of horns too (deer-like etc)
Seeing different hairstyles would be great too (preferably long ones, unkept ones, like moss hair etc)
-Females-
Makeup options too, but keep them unique compared to Humans and Norn, perhaps adding ’’makeup’’ which is tied to glow. During the night that makeup can ’’pulse’’ just like the rest of the body, make it a part of them, as if they were born with it. So far we have a few faces which ’’show’’ makeup, but it limits options again.
As for hair accessories, I think females should have different types of flowers to choose from, it would really be great to see that females can choose from variety of flowers for their hairstyles, even choosing a place where a flower is to be put would be great.
To distinct them more: Females would only have flowers, males only horns.

Charr:
-Males-
So far what I saw from faces in store and hairstyles too, I got really…kind of disappointed. They look like hybrids and a little deformed as well.
Face patterns and details should be ’’optional’’ , something one can choose to have or not. Scars, ’’freckles’’, dots etc.
As for hairstyles, just like for all races, accessories should be separated, not glued to the hairstyle, or perhaps specific hairstyles could have different styles of the ’’same’’ accessory it is tied to.
More better face options for males, currently they strayed too far from looking like felines.
Beard options for males- Many remember Pyre Fierceshot, he had such a cool beard, seeing that in game would be great, along with other options – and no, not tied to face, but a separate option to add it to any face.
-Female-
Females should have different horn accessories, earrings, neck accessories, hair accessories and decorations as well.
Eyeliner would be very nice to see too, currently only one female face has eyeliner and it looks really amazing- like true cat eyes.
Now what ran through my mind and made me quite hyped for this race is…Tail accessories, so far a few armors have bits of it glued to tail, and I do not like that implementation. Why not add separate way to customize our tails? One could choose full metal-plate-like armor on tail, spikes on tail, ribbons on tail, different types of decorations to make it look amazing. It could even be acquired from actually playing the game, unlocking it and next time one opens the wardrobe can choose it any time.

Asura:
-Male-
After I saw this spiked hairstyle I found it one of the best hairstyles for this race. Why not add more accessories like that? Asura could have ‘’cube-like’’ decorations, or perhaps even energy-like patterns going around them or something.
Males should also have beard options, in GW2 a few ’’elder’’ Asura had quite unique beards, why don’t our Asura have that? Choosing different beard types would be great.
All accessories could be tied to technology, I didn’t have any specific ideas regarding this, I’m sorry.
-Female-
Females might have makeup options, or perhaps face pattern options which are unique to their gender.
Hair accessories which are tied to their style, loved the Egyptian hairstyle we got, I think we need more like that.

What do you think of this idea?
Feel free to expand!

I think it would be great to have all this implemented for I completely agree the whole customization lacks way too much, even with new faces and hairstyles added fairly often, since as soon as a new cool hairstyle/face is added, normally most of the players immediately pick those ones and it becomes a new clones war. A few accessories would definitely be a win in this matter, and completely agree about make up too. I’m sick how you can either choose the face features or make-up or if having a scar, it’s ridiculous.
