Seriously how much man power could it have taken to model 3 or 4 new hair options? Put someone on that issue instead of trying to cram as much mining and tedium into the game as possible.
It may seem like a small and unimportant thing to some people, but I find it hard to believe that the horrible character creator wasn't one of the top 5-10 concerns they got from fans.
Why does BioWare continually neglect hairstyles?

I wonder why they didn't mirror a couple of the hair meshes. The bobby brown one for example.
This at least gives some semblance of more choices.
But yeah, in a game where you are the protagonist, the lack of hair styles is disappointing where customisation plays a large part.

They are military. They aren't allowed to have hair. Just that simple. Can't fit it in the helmet.

Well, Shepard hasn't been military for close to three years now.

...He was dead during that time. Kinda hard to grow hair when your dead.

When you have a major reconstruction at the genetic level I imagine different or longer hair isn't really an issue...

Well, during the year(ish) he spent chasing Saren and then afterwards looking for ways to prepare for the true reaper threat, he was non-military.

He still has Millitary personal working under him and does still represent Humanity.
But yes, the commanding officer of a spaceship and Spectre Agent should be running around in a neon green Mohawk.

I have met a lot of military people with nice haircuts. More than 6
varieties, even. Didn't even look like a solid piece of plastic,
either. Funny, that.

Here's a bigger version. I included the bar underneath to confirm that they're different.

Be sure to have them send headshots to Bioware.

Not in any official capacity. He only answers to the Council, and any issues regarding Shepards race is purely a matter of public perception. My Shepard really couldn't care less what a bunch of couch potatoes on Earth and self-entitled admirals think.

The hyperbole is strong with this one.

You contrarians are trying to present a false dichotomy of either the poorly designed character creator we have now, or some wild afro/mohawk from Tony Hawk Pro Skater. You're either being stupid, or dishonest.
Nobody is asking for wackiness. We're asking for more realistic and attractive options to make our Sheperds our own, which is pretty much the point of the game.

What I love is that some people actually DON'T want more choice in hairstyles, you guys would be great car salesman...
"So I was wondering, do you have a crew cab long bed available in this color?"
"You don't need it, you said you were a lawyer, you don't have anything to haul big enough to constitute something that large."
But...It's what I like, it's not really about..."
"No, I said you don't need one, ok?"

Top row is facial structures (+ Default shep)
Bottom row is hair styles

Most likely shooter fans who aren't used to customizing their characters.

It's funny how the short cropped cowlick style is in every recent Bioware game. Alistair would be the most well known to sport one.

So Yeoman Chambers isn't apart of the Alliance Millitary, despite you know, having a rank?
And if I am not mistaken the surviving crewmembers of the first Normandy return (Joker, the Doctor). So they all have left the Service in two years?
Not in any official capacity. He only answers to the Council, and any issues regarding Shepards race is purely a matter of public perception. My Shepard really couldn't care less what a bunch of couch potatoes on Earth and self-entitled admirals think.
And lets see how fast they cut off your funding.

Shepard is middle aged (or at the very least late twenties) and has been in the Millitary long enough be the XO of a ship. If you have hairstyles that are appropriate for that type of character, then maybe you should make a thread with examples of what you want to see Bioware implement instead just stating the current options are lackluster.
