Let's face it: not everyone thinks bald is beautiful. The problem for many is that they don't know how to fix this issue. Well, cancel that order of Rogain for Women, because the solution is extremely simple.
Simply download this file and stick it in your override folder (My Documents/Neverwinter Nights 2/Override). It will not conflict with anything, it will not cause any errors, but it also will not affect any previous saved games you have. What this will do is give Safiya a new look when you start the expansion.
NOTE: Please don't turn this into a discussion about how terrible and shallow I am. If you don't want Safiya to have hair because Red Wizards technically shouldn't, then that's fine. This isn't for you and not one person will force you to use it. This is only for people who prefer a little less shine on their women and don't mind ignoring the RP factor in this case.
You can still ask Safiya about her bald head, by the way. Changing that would require I change her dialog file, and I really don't think that's necessary.
Still not pleased? If you want a different appearance for Safiya (bald or not), then feel free to describe it or give me an image of something you made at the character creation screen, and I'll upload my best copy of that.
Also like to point out, Edwin DID have hair in his portrait, it was just MOSTLY obscured by his hood (but did peek out a little). I base this on the BG2 Edwin, BG1 Edwin COULD have been bald, but it sure didn't look like he was, and that's moot since in 2 he did have hair. At any rate, read up on your FR sources or read the novel Red Magic and you'll find out the red wizards didn't always have bald heads.
Arrgh, I know it's a year since OfficerDon posted, but I can't stand people being wrong on the internet.
Edwin in BG/2 did NOT have a full set of hair, ESPECIALLY not on his portrait. All avatars (the little toons, not to be confused with 'avatars' in forums and the like) had hair, but that's because avatars in BG/2 almost never had special looks. _________________________ - Ceterum censeo Iudaeam esse delendam.

I'm thinking perhaps a different hairstyle? Don't know which, but I'm just not a fan of the current hair. Otherwise great job!
I'm not sure if the hair style you've used suits Safiya but... Strangely enough after playing MotB I got used to her being bald she's not ugly at least. Does anyone remember Ediwn the red wizard from BGI/BGII? He had a full head of hair AND a beard! lol Or at least his portit did! _________________________ The Knight Capatin's Rogue: Book 1

Out of curiousity, could you give her something like a mohawk? I think that would work and still give her some hair for those that; in fact, that would work for a class that I'm adding to my PrC pack.
Well, that head actually does have tatoos because it's one of the two mulan heads available for female humans. The tatoos are on her head like a typical red wizard, but are mostly covered by her hair. You can see them slightly underneath her bangs.
If that's not good enough, I can always use another head that does have facial tatoos. I can even try to get the skin to be the right color so she still looks mulan.
Could I make a suggestion that you include some facial tattoos atleast? I agree that the hair makes her a bit more appealing as a character, but the lack of tattoos doesn't work for me : ) _________________________ "Save Early, Save Often"
