Cyberpunk 2077 is all about customization. You start out with one of the biggest and best character creators in any video game and the experience only gets more tailored from there. This has lead a lot of players to ask how to change hair in Cyberpunk 2077, but first we have to ask the bigger question of can you change appearance later at all.
Can You Change Your Appearance Later in Cyberpunk 2077
The beginning of Cyberpunk 2077 sees you crafting an almost completely customizable character. You select how they look in so many ways it can be overwhelming. And these choices matter for how the rest of the game plays out, espcially if you want to romance certain characters. Not everything does, of course. Your facial features might matter to you, despite the fact that you rarely see your own face while in the middle of gameplay, but still these things are important.
Hair customization in Cyberpunk 2077 is impressively substantial, with a variety of detailed styles and color options. Players can go totally wild or natural to better fit their character’s personality. After the start of the game, however, it becomes unclear how to change haircut. Is there a barber or hairdresser? Here’s how to change V’s haircut style and color in Cyberpunk 2077.
How to Change Haircut & Color in Cyberpunk 2077
To change haircut in Cyberpunk 2077, players must make final adjustments in the character creation menu.
At the time of writing, there is no other way of changing V’s hair outside of the character creation screen. There are no barbers or hairdressers inside or outside of Night City and no way for V to cut their own hair.
This seems like a bit of an oversight in a game that otherwise provides so many opportunities for personalization throughout the course of the game. From clothing to weapons, players can dive deep into different load-outs and looks. Haircuts, for now, remain permanent.
For those players who really want to change V’s hair, a new game is the only true option. Thankfully, the ability to have multiple characters across multiple save files makes it easy to try something new, without totally overwriting progress.
This does seem like a feature that developer CD Projekt RED would eventually add in a post-launch update. After seeing the support for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and its various free patches and paid-for expansions, if anyone can add a “Barber DLC,” it’s got to be CDPR.
