I have this posted as a feature/“Re-Request”, but honestly, this shouldn’t be a TRUE feature? Why is it that Afro hair is always on the short end of the delivery and the quality and quantity is never addressed?
The quality of some of these hairstyles is sad compared to other looser curl patterns, While I understand that there is “lack of” in the team. That’s still not an issue to not address it! And has never been by the Episode staff, but by Episode users in defense!
While I understand the “quantity” would mean requesting. We still only get a sprinkle in the hair update. (The last update we received one) and it still has terrible quality, so I will focus more on quality.
The problem is that multiple people have pointed this out and they haven’t addressed it.
I have sent in a support ticket for the moment. Its been two days so I’m still waiting for a response.
We need better afro-textured hairstyles for the male body shape.
Here are my issues with the current options:
Variety
There are currently 61 hairstyles for the male body shape.
12 of those are afro-textured – braids, twists, dreads, afros, etc.
Out of that 12: 2 are completely unusable, and if they are used, it’s usually on a parody character with an intentionally odd appearance.
And 3 other hairstyles are just a shorter/longer variation of an already existing hairstyle.
This means that currently, there are only 7 different “usable” hairstyles in-portal for afro-textured male-identifying characters. This is absurd to me, considering there are over 60 hairstyles at this point.
Lack of Quality
Now, when we look at these small number of hairstyles, there is something strikingly different in terms of the image quality of, and curl definition.

This is something that has been on my mind for quite some time, and I’m not sure why it took me so long to make this feature request, but it’s here now.

Let me start by saying that we need more black hairstyles. It’s one of the key factors holding me back from writing my story.
Now, I appreciate all the staff has tried to do but some of the few we have aren’t too great.
Take this for example—the parting is on the wrong side. I once read a story where it was swapped but I can’t seem to get that trick right. In total, it looks like a mess—or at least, close to one.

(Opinion)
The black hair styles are VERY limited. I’d like to see natural hair in a bun, natural hair in a puff, ect. Here are some ideas:
