    Oh, so that's what's hiding under that swirly.

    The hat morphs are a wonderful touch. Thank you for those!

    Got mine, hope you make some more similar styles; normal, short male hairstyles seem few and far between.

    I do plan on doing more hair (and clothing) for the male figures.  It's true... there is a small selection available out there.

    Thank you!

    Hat morphs are useful, but I was so very grateful for a style of male hair which looks normal and not overly stylised, which can seem rare! Had to get it!

    Heck, it's close to my own!

    A small confession... It is my hairstyle and my name is Brian, lol.  I know, "how original"

    I used to have a hairstyle very much like that. Now, not so much...

    Picked this up immedtialy, I love it!

    If you're taking suggests? Something I find hard to get on BOTH male and femals are razor style cuts. Where the hair is acutally shaved up close to the skin into an inverted bob or up thhe sides too with the front bangs longer. Couple of examples attached, of course I can't find the male version now. I'll trip over it a million times later this week.

    I see tons of hairstyles in the general shape but they tend to  be super short all around or not have decent middle bang length. They just have the -tails- like the first image.

    Interesting.  I'm still new at the hair biz, but I'm willing to give it a shot.  Very short hair is difficult because it's hard to make the layers.  Often, we paint these hairs onto the scalp texture, but unless it's stubble, it doesn't tend to look very realistic.  Similar to what I did with the sideburns in this style.  I will definitely give it a try, though.

    A question/possible suggestion for a future product: would it be possible to make something like LIE overlays to do gray temples or gray/white streaks through the hair? It seems like it might be a workable extension of your UHT product, maybe? I've edited one hair style to do that on my own, and I learned enough to know that it was possible, and that I never want to do that again. Placing the white/gray so that it was around temples or something like that is surprisingly difficult.

    Surprisingly, I do have this idea on my project board.  It would be great to add all sorts of highlights and streaks, not just gray.  It's been a case of tons of ideas and not enough time to do them all.  I am planning a UHT sequel, though, which will have options like you mention.... If my ideas are actually doable, that is ;)

    If no one else has suggested it, I'd snap up something similar to the old Wedge cut, especially if it's the same quality as the Brian hair. Centre part, not too long, etc. It was my main male hair prop for a long time... frown

    Yes! Please. Distinguished later middle-aged gentlemen.

    Yay!  (Sorry, missed prior notification. Kind of hating the way this board handles those things.)

    If I might suggest one more addition, if it's not on your board for the expansion: a mapless, colorless material version of the shader with whatever you think would work as base settings. I mention that because there are hairs like Nuru hair or Omri hair, which do not have straight hair maps in any direction. It might also work for things like skull caps and other things where you've said that it shouldn't be used.

    Good idea.  I'll keep that in mind when working on it
