ღ Mesh Hair...It Doesn't FIT! ღ

Hai! So in this post I'll give you a couple of tips to help you get with the times and wear mesh hair. Yes, you can wear most, but not all, unfortunately.

I think one of the most difficult furry avatars on the market to fit mesh hair on out there is the Chinchilla by Curious Inc. Don't let this detour you from getting one though in my opinion its one of the cutest and most feminine available at the moment. Its cute round face can pose a challenge, but there are some hairs out there that actually do fit nicely.

If I had to pick the top creator that fits the best I'd probably have to say its Magika one of the leading Mesh Hair creators, most of their line comes with three options of color variation from Naturals [01], Color [02] and most popular the Multi-colored [03].

Before you ever get started with any Modding make sure you make a Copy of the item. This includes your Prim Head, Jaw, Eyes and anything you use in or around your face. One does this so if you have to place your head a little higher or lower then its normal position it does not affect your other already created outfits. Also, most furry avatars come with alphas to hide your original human head, but if it didn't, shop around for some inexpensive ones. I use one " Loki Mesh Alpha Layers Mega Pack" by Loki Eliot

Once you have created your copies, go ahead and edit your shape. I usually just right click over my Avatar and choose Edit Shape. Go to the Head tab, this is where you will adjust the slider to make it bigger. Most common head sizes for Furry shapes start around  #37, but for Mesh Hair you will have to increase it to anywhere from #60 - 100.

Note once you go pass #70 it may get tricky, and you will more then likely need something to cover the gaps between your head and neck. If this is the case and you are like me and don't have the skills to create alpha layers then you will want to choose a nice turtle neck shirt, posture collar, etc. 

One other trick I use is deleting certain pieces of the mesh hair. Some creators make it so where you can actually drop the hair on the ground, then by checking the Edit Link box you can target most sections and un-link and delete without distorting or messing the hair up.

Hope this helps!
