How to unlock and use hairstyles in FFXIV

Hairstyles are unlocked in FFXIV by obtaining or purchasing unique consumable items called “Modern Aesthetics”. Each one has a unique name and after “using” it the specific hairstyle provided by that item will be unlocked and become permanently available to your character. Hairstyles are obtained in a variety of ways, such as by purchasing them from the Market Board or Mog Station, exchanging unique in-game currency for them, or through rare loot drops.

You can change your character’s hairstyle at any time by visiting inn and choosing the Crystal Bell. If you have an apartment or house, you can purchase a Crystal Bell from the Market Board to use there as well.

This summons the eccentric looking Aesthetic NPC who can style your hair into anything you’ve unlocked for a fee. 2,000 gil. You can modify your makeup too if you wish. However, if you decide you don’t like a look you’ve done, you can back out of the process and you won’t be charged.

Important Note: If you already have a certain hairstyle unlocked, a golden checkmark will be visible on the icon for that Modern Aesthetic object. So make sure you don’t buy it more than once.
