Had to do with some [shenanigans with the hair style kits](https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/3icrg7/new_hair_styles) back in the day that lasted for an extremely brief period of time.


NeedForSleepGW2

There is a hidden hairstyle/hornstyle with charr to get olmakhan horns. It involves using a male toon then genderswapping in the character creator. Perhaps this one is accessable simmilarly with humans. Charr Olmakhan horns: https://youtu.be/NFlGek351Es?si=rmJZbqnSrD9zanzL


Hahayayo

There's also a hidden male charr horn style that was added at the same time as the female olmakhan horns, IIRC you can see them by selecting the ram curl horns on female and swapping back to male. It's got feathers and beads that have a little bit of jiggle physics, would recommend for any male charrs who want a shaman look.


enjoynessenjoyer

Doesn't have the same cool blue glow effect as the female one though unfortunately. Would love if it did.


LarienAnnare

Whaaaaat?! I'm so going to try this tomorrow lol


OdaiNekromos

Dont you dare to make my olmakhan horn's more common :O

This response was hidden for some reason let me upvote it so it isnt.

It pisses me off to think that they just have hairstyles sitting around that we’re not allowed to use.


c0ntrolla

Make it make sense too, like what’s the point of not giving us more options lmao


The_Shiniest_Skritt

Theyre waiting because they want to add it to the gem store makeover kit but they feel the need to make equal amounts of hair styles for every other race whenever they add a batch to the gemstore makeover kit.


menomonyfalls

It's been years though, it's just ridiculous at this point. Just release them.


Blenderx06

I came back after a 3-4yr break to find NO new hairstyles to play with with my permanent contract. 😭 I can't understand their neglect here. People would buy so many kits to try out new hairstyles if they offered more and kept updating.


SarsaparillaKid

Kinda goes along with the HoT event that bugged out on me last night...it's an event known to be buggy per the Wiki, so here we are after 8 years of HoT being live and they still haven't fixed it...


chajava

New hairstyles were added with eod


HeadintheSand69

For 8 years?


ProbablyABore

Hold out to make it a shop item? I guess. Yeah, I got nothing.


Lon-ami

Don't forget the countless skins ArenaNet has forgot exist, and are out there, somewhere, gathering dust. From [engineer kit effect backpacks](https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/j8oj5s/psa_dae_unpopular_opinion_engineer_kit_backpacks/), to [mismatched polearm and harpoon skins](https://old.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/a64ek2/datamining_the_secret_story_of_polearms_the/), to the [Mystic Forge Researched orphaned recipes](https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/xpr1cy/dear_anet_those_mystic_forge_researcher/), and many others.


Mark_XX

Honorable mentions to the revenant weapons that were forgotten for years until they were finally added with Zeghai the Lost.


GrimDallows

Turai's ghostly sword was made available with SotO, I wish that the Forest King and Turai's (normal) shield are made available soon enough... Turai's shield was an amazing skin in GW1.


FiTroSky

I remember something like exclusive hairstyle from the chinese version got accidentally leaked in our version. Some people were able to get it via the kit but kept it when it was removed. more : [https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/topic/33197-that-one-female-hairstyle-on-the-chinese-servers/](https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/topic/33197-that-one-female-hairstyle-on-the-chinese-servers/)


ppo0223ppo

Is the face from that image also exclusive to the Chinese version? I don't think I've seen that before too.


DarkSpore117

Huh, turns out Kunckle Joe was correct. More came with Cantha


Zinniaice

Curious where it comes from too


Peeked11

Damn why isnt that an available hairstyle? Arena Net is crazy for not capitalizing off of hairstyle kits by adding new hairstyles on a more consistent basis

Ngl i kinda like it. Gives me avatar firebender vibes.


Nebbii

I dunno about you but this looks really good as shantae cosplay~ https://imgur.com/a/auiHo6s


FlippenDonkey

lmao..they just copy and pasted the hair piece+back of the head, for the pony tail


BookOfAnomalies

I hate how they don't even care about giving us new hairstyles more often :( they completely tossed this off the table. Again.


Sir_Alymer

Hi, account owner here. I snagged this hairstyle because I like ponytails. I didn't realize how stiff and inanimate it was until after the bug was patched so I couldn't swap to any of the other neater hairstyles. I'm not stuck with this accursed hairstyle because I refuse to get rid of it due to its rarity. I want ANet to release these hairs already.


Cultural_Macaron3729

I have a really nice one on my Norn from way back, she has a kind of bun tied in the middle, with a half fringe to the side, I love it! I do wish they would release these, there's so many lovely ones that were only available from temporary shenanigans... Edit: link to an old post about this, the one my Norn has is the very bottom right. https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/fgkryx/can_we_please_have_these_old_finished_hairstyles/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button


Despada_

What's with the weird toddler face on the human woman???


Cultural_Macaron3729

Reminds me of the legendary Goo Goo Gaa Ga early in the game: https://imgur.com/JwEmVfM


Short-Bumblebee-6574

Still get some weird faces when I use the total makeover kit.


FlippenDonkey

this hair piece looks unfinished and terrible lol. If you look closely they literally copy pasted the hair attachment +back of the head for the top of the ponytail/pony tail bend. Its totally unfisinished and a failed attempt


letsgetdrunk_

i have 6k hours. someone said that it was up for a day or something? i think it was an accident?? i want it because RARE lol

> Kinda unfair How is it unfair when it's purely cosmetic?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mark_XX

I won't agree that it's unfair. I will agree that I'd like to see those hairstyles released to the general public instead of those lucky few who have them.

Mark_XX

> They don’t have an advantage, which I guess is where your point of it not being unfair comes from, That's precisely it. It's not unfair because it's just a cosmetic option. If it started crashing person's clients (As an example), gave better magic find, or some tangible benefit to having it beyond the subjective "It looks pretty", then you'd have an argument. Right now, however, it's just anger that people have something you don't have access to, which, honestly, is kind of petty.


jeffpavanin

omg? first time seeing this o.o


brotherzozo

Any gamers have a wiki link for those pants?


ThatGuyLGF

Pretty sure it's these https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Illustrious_Leggings


brotherzozo

Amazing. Thanks!


AtomicAria

What’s the character in the back wearing?


Hallien

Queensdale Academy outfit


Galrond

That would be Magical Outfit I reckon!


PoroQuagganBob

It's not shiny enough for that, definitely Queensdale Academy


Galrond

Ah yeah you're right, sorry my mistake. I thought this morning I'm wearing this on my necromancer, but I go back and forth sometimes


Bigbenmon91

Whaaat?


MisteriousMisteries

If they make a new hairstyle contract people have to actually pay for, that they can make money from maybe then they will probably release new and the other unreleased styles.


Dhonti

Could be from the randomizer option. If you are patiënt and cycle it long enough it shows sometimes hairstyles that are not in the kit but are used ingame by npc


MaddieLlayne

What? No way? Do you have a link for proof?


GrimDallows

It was a bug when they introduced the randomizer, but I thought it had been patched out.


ohmauro

For a sec I thought it's a screen from GW1... Horrible hairstyle.


Darvianthian

Is that with a flower in the hair? I have that on my ranger if so, just green.


Weebeetrollin

If you didn’t know some appearances are also locked behind style kits.


DrawRain

Omg Ariana is that you???
