5. In the game, open the console with the tilde key. Type "slm player 1". Select the face, then the hair, then your desired hairstyle (i.e. Azar Ponytail 1). Exit out of the menu and you're done.
6. You can also use the barbershop to choose your hairstyle.

Known Issues:

- The physics for the longer ponytails will occasionally glitch out and jump around. This is due to the rig I'm working from, which isn't suited for the longer hairstyles. I will address this in the future.
- The hairstyles were not designed for males, but can be used on them. You may experience clipping or other issues.
- If your game crashes from using the "slm" screen: Double check that you have enabled Archive Invalidation. Uninstall the mod and reinstall, set the load order of the ESP to the very last, run the game, go to an empty interior, unequip all of your character's items, and try "showlooksmenu" again.
- If your character is bald after selecting a hairstyle, double check that the mod has been installed properly. Run through all the installation steps again. Make sure that all the mesh, texture, and material files are where they should be. Also try completely uninstalling the mod and re-installing.
