My necromancer's hair color (ruby red) now clashes horribley with her new armor which is a different, icky red. What was I thinking? Need to change it!

^^^True Story...

I've wanted this for ages, I've also wanted adjustments to height too but that's probably pushing it :P

This should be stickied and emailed daily to Anet till it gets put into game.

Something the devs need to take note of when adding this; it helps all chapters sell. How?

The player will need to purchase each chapter to be able to have the option of each hair/face choice. So a chapter X only owner sees a style they like, they have further incentive to purchase the other chapter to get that look.

Seem petty? Anet used material storage to help sell Factions and I barely have any materials in there still. A new look for my 3million exp ranger with protector titles/drunkard/95%tyria explored to get a new look would be well worth an incentive to purchase an otherwise weak product (if another Factions comes out) though.

Anything that promotes customization and individuality in the game is 2 thumbs up from me. As long as it doesn't go overboard and keeps it realistic to the storyline. I also like the idea of clothes the character could wear in town, though it would be more difficult to impliment this. If nothing else it would add a visual variety to the people you meet every day.

I know I have been supporting this idea as well! I love the idea of this kind of custimization ~ and ...i don't think its just cause I'm a girl .__.V

I fully support a hair color and hair style changer! that would be awesome - I don't know if I agree to the height changes, or addition of tattoos, but the idea of a Hair Stylist is what I'm really pushing for!

sounds like a maple story moment.

I believe things like Hair should be a must seeing how any culture does that. Maybe tatoos and perhaps little armor thingies like jewelery to be added like a Prefex to armor and the suffex still being the regular runes.

Nope, I'm a married old codger (so my wife calls me); I see it as a way to retain interest in current characters and a reason to enjoy the eye candy the game has to offer.
If I were to go to another country and saw a hair style that was popular, chances are pretty good, that while I am there I would alter my hair to more fit in; or just to enjoy a new look while there enjoying the local customs. There's no reason for this not to be in game as of yesterday.

What would be even better is if they put them in a shop! Actually I'd love to see many NPCS put inside store fronts, complete with comfy chairs. They have to be tired from standing around 24/7, hehe.... notice how there isn't much "inside" places in GW? Like stores, inns or services... Of course it be harder to actually "get to" and npc in a busy shop, but hey talk about realistic...Oh wait thats why i play this game, because it's unreal... oh yeah i forgot... But we can all play the "stand in line" game, wouldn't that be fun?

Gawd, please don't turn gw into a fashion show...ACK!

No one said anything about a fasion show, only an interest in keeping the characters interesting and "up-to date".
Without the ability to change the characters looks the players will get bored and either delete the hard work and have to go through all the same stuff again (and if it's Factions, chances are they will quit before doing it again for the tenth time); or they will grow bored of seeing the exact same thing over again; or they will simply find something else to buy and go play it.
My ranger is a prime example of this; she has well over 3 million exp, is very clsoe to having the "big deal" title and frankly, I have little or no interest in playing her cause I'm tired of her "look". Silly to some, but not to others.
Since this sort of update to the game takes nothing from anyone, it's silly ad rather dumb for any player to oppose it... but hey, why should everyone enjoy the game they bought to the max?

Currently the only way to hide my wammo's bald spot (which only appears when he runs) is to wear a helmet all the time, wear obsolescent knight's armor, or wear uber-expensive and not terribly attractive FoW armor. I'll sign just about anything if it gets rid of that bald spot.

I'd like this feature, I try to create very different characters from the normal or popular but I've noticed that sometimes after I've been playing that character for a couple weeks that other characters start popping up looking like mine... of course with limited options you can only expect clones but when I pick the least liked/used character features I don't expect to see more than a few duplicates. So even just the basic hair and hair color change would be very welcomed.

200 Gold for any change you want to make would be fine.

If it's a hair stylist, we still need the option of having some sort of Facial Hair. The mesmer shouldn't be the only one with it

Seriously. I have regretted the hairstyle in which I have given my character all too many times, months later where I could not delete the character due to sheer sentimental value. Okay, how was I supposed to know that my monk with the little buns was to look EXACTLY like 80 percent of the other Tyrian monk girls? Also, as a girl, customization, diversity, and having a pretty character are both very important to me and I cannot live with a character who I am not happy with, physical appearance wise.

Pleasepleaseplease do this, this would seriously make my Guild Wars. :]

I would love to have the feature to completely re-roll your character's looks too =_= Too bad it will probably never happen.

My monk feels so..tall..waaaaah I want her to be shorter.
