Ok, first off, i know this has been posted here before, but i have more reason why there should be one. First off, a haircut weekend would be a weekend in which you could change your characters hair style. Maybe even make it cost like 10-15k or something.

I think they should do it because, when you first make your character you dont always know what armor and color your gonna end up getting. For example, i made my Rits hair red, but now i just got obby armor dyed pink. The only way to make it look good, is using the obby helm, but that doesn't always look good. If you made a character, 3 years ago, but just recently got new armor but don't like the helm, you cant really make him/her look good. Most of Guild Wars is about looking good anyways, why not make it so your hair matches?

I dont see why they wouldnt do it, theres no reason why they shouldnt. I know alot of people have mentioned this before, but i really think they should, and i bet there are alot of other people who feel the same way.

Who else agrees with me?

Hell, they could even have it at the end of this month so the kids would feel better about going back to school!

Well,
A). This would detract from time where they could code meaningful things.
B). People would QQ if the remade there character to get different looks/missed the event/could not afford it.
C). It has been suggested a million times and will not happen, hell nothing suggested here gets put in.

people might "QQ" but it will help hundreds of other people who are thinking about remaking their character just because of the hair. People get blindfolds and things, and they clip, they should be able to change their hair.

It might get through if we have enough people agree with it. It cant hurt, at all.

I agree with A) and C). Those are the reasons this will not happen.

/notsign, because it is pointless to /sign, since it has been stated by Gaile (back when she was CR) that it wasn't going to happen in GW1, but is a definite possibility in GW2.

If they did do it, it's pointless going to the effort to do it for one weekend and then take it away again. If they went to the effort of putting the coding in, they might as well make it a permanent feature.

At this point in time, I'd take any past "this will never happen" from Gaile with a grain of salt - I couldn't give the specifics off the top of my head, but I'm sure at least a couple of those have been overturned since Regina took over the job. A) does still hold, however.

(As a partial rebuttal to C), there were plenty of requests for a rogue/light fighter profession and a bard/shouter profession before the Assassin and Paragon, respectively, were revealed. I doubt those professions were made solely on suggestions made here, but they were ANet's own spin on things that were suggested here, and they were put in.)

Don;t say that it won't happen because it was said that it won't. How many things *such as the PvE/PvP split* has happened after ANet said they would not do that. I think they even said they were not going to touch Ursan for a long time then finally caved in. ANet are human, they can double back on their words just like anyone else.

Even though I'd prefer a NPC addition, /signed. I want people to stop calling me a narutard because I picked an Assassin hair with the ninja head-guard. -.-

/signed for a permanently available NPC. I'd change my hair every other week.

As a weekend event? Not exactly the most exciting weekend event I could imagine.

C. is lies there was a post about changing the hom to be more account based. and that's going to happen. it might not be directly related to that thread but it still is going to happen.

secondly i would rather be able to do this all the time and also be able to change the names of a few of my ch.

Party Animal title came from a suggestion here. Someone suggested the title name Party Animal.

I'm all for it. Rather than an event to change the hair, why not make hair changing a part of every event? New season event, new hair? It beats the hell out of standing on a ring of fortune (and isn't that a riot?).

Or just make hair styles a type of helmet. Just like a monk's tattoes but fuzzier. Then you could dye them over and over again. Technically it's be a wig, but hey, some of my chars are getting on in age.

ABSOLUTELY /signed. As long as you can have a hairstyle from any campaign on any character!

/unsigned for helmet hair though

This is the dumbest, most ignorant thing that EVERYONE posts in EVERY SINGLE new/good idea thread.

Tons of people have been asking for something like this forever. Although i don't see it happening. I see lots and lots more double xp capture weekends instead of cool stuff like this.
