No new hairstyles for Charr?
none for asura either is sad
| 61 Asura | 5 Charr | 2 Norn | 1 Human | 1 Sylvari |
Did you check all the way along the list? The new ones for humans were added at the end of the list instead of the beginning, which threw me at first.
Admittedly I haven’t checked charr myself because my charr character is in the middle of Orr and I don’t want to bring him back to town just to look at hair.

There was a post in reddit about this. Seems to be only human hair styles at this time.
I guess I’ll have to keep waiting for long hair styles for asura. :/

WTB Elonan Sylvari hair/faces :]
Charr has only like 2-3 realy hairstyles, the rest is rubbish. An now the class with most hairstyles gets even more. But I guess it’s like the Ele-Specilization. Anet has their favourites…
Why would the other races have new hairstyles with the expansion when they have nothing to do with the new region?

Maybe the other races that are going to that region saw some new and interesting hairstyles and were inspired?

Just humans have got new hairstyles / faces today…all other races got nothing…..i just want some new hairstyles….for the other races, i see that the today added hairstyles are for humans, because the new region has to do with them…but also: now i wonder: with HoT in the past……have they added new hairstyles / faces for sylvari and i dont have recordnized this…or is this the first time they add hairstyles / faces just for 1 race…….soo anet: pls add a second set, including humans and all other races, i can totally understand that you add today styles just for human….but i was running to the stylist with my sylvari just to see that there are none (ok, someone wrote in chat that there are new styles…and i never was thinking of, that they are just for 1 race…)…now i am waiting for new styles^^

Because new faces and hairstyles are about offering diversity to all players, not about imaginary racial limits. Maybe you spect charr, asura, norn and sylvari player characters not to be admitted in the new areas because the problem is with a human god?
that it makes every other class in the game boring to play.”

So when we go to the Charr homeland, humans will get new hairstyles based on the Charr there? If you played GW1, you would realize that, in that region, they are humans. There were no Sylvari, Charr, Norn, or Asura. Expect the same with Cantha.

Of course. If there is going to be new customization items in the makeover kit, there have to be some for everyone. It is just fair for the players.

Well yeah, they could always add more for other races. I was just explaining what may be the primary reason why they didn’t with this expansion.
It makes a lot of sense to promote and put human hairstyles in place right now, mostly because the region we are going is heavily inspired by Africa/Egypt/Middle Eastern environments and culture. In addition, at least in GW1, humans there were a dominant race. I can understand them wanting to generate some early hype about returning to Elona with the ability to update a human character with more Elonan features before playing the expansion. This isn’t to say that new cosmetic features won’t be implemented for other races either sometime before the expansion is released or with additional game updates in the future.
To be fair, those hairstyles were badly needed for humans, and I say that as someone who does not in any way care for the humans in this game either visually or lore-wise. It was BS that you could put an afro on fricking asura but not on human women. And the setting of PoF also needs those new hairs and faces so all the Elonan NPCs won’t look like white people in cheap blackface.
On the other hand, the human bias in this game is obvious and annoying, and continuing to give them special treatment is not going to help encourage players to diversify more. The sylvari didn’t get an exclusive slew of new options for HoT. And can you imagine Anet giving the charr a list of such beautiful, thematic and non-anime-silly options? They sure could use it.
