Frankly, nobody's hair textures look up to par with the rest of the game. Just look at that dwarf they showed recently. Best to just accept that.
True but they at least have one or two styles I find decent looking on each race. I don't find that much with the qunari.
Honestly even if they had given only the hornless most of the shared hairstyles I'd been happy.

You see though, the devs have commented on this. In this thread in fact, one month ago. I know it's not a great answer, but they did come by and make a post. They could have completely ignored the thread, but they didn't. There isn't much more that they could say or do about it right now.
I empathize, I truly do, but sometimes we have to accept the answer we're given. Honestly, between this and other threads (like the causal clothing and ball uniform threads,) I wouldn't be surprised to see an appearance DLC before you know it. 
Agreed. I still don't understand why the devs won't even comment on this... It seems like it would be such an easy fix and it would save them from having to make new hairstyles in a DLC...
They did comment on it, you just don't think it was enough
And like Mike said before, "If it was easy they would have done it"

) and said they would look into it post-launch and I appreciated that, don't get me wrong: I just wish they could have gone into a LITTLE more detail, especially after seeing how Patrick Weeks wrote a 10,000+ word post on the changes to the healing mechanics.

Bleh. Don't leave those of us who want to play horned qunari with those horrible meshes. Sure, the hornless qunari have no reason not to get the styles available to the other races, but leaving horned qunari with access to just those three would be a horrible call. That's not the end result I want.
At this point, they should be rethinking EVERY race's hair options. I'm looking at the elven hair styles and it's just.....ugh. 13 different bald styles. Freakin seriously?
I know they vaguely responded to our concerns (I've been part of this thread since day one
Why couldn't they just explain why hornless female Qunari couldn't borrow the hairstyles of other races? Was it a design decision? Technical limitation? Lack of resources? I'm curious. That's all.
When it comes to the healing changes, that was a very big deal. Most RPGs have some sort of healing spells or post-combat regen mechanic. Considering that the series had had both prior to this, it merited a lengthy explanation. While bunking the Holy Trinity (Tank/Healer/DPS) is starting to happen in more modern RPG, it's still new and can seem daunting to players.
There isn't much more Cameron could say about the hair. Did you want a 10,000+ word explanation about why they didn't add in more hair? Does it really need that level of an explanation? Did you want a promise for DLC? Honestly, what more did you want them to say other than, "Thanks for the feedback and we're looking into it?" I'm utterly lost at to what kind of answer is being asked for here.

They did comment I just meh. It's a baffling design decision. Then again so is...

Yeah I facepalmed hard at that. 13 variations of goddamn buzzcut/balds. Seriously? Seriously?

I know but it'd be the fastest most likely

The fastest solution, certainly, but hardly the best. 'Fastest and simplest' were what got the other races 50 shades of fuzz for hair. I'd rather BioWare take a bit more time (but not too much) and give us a decent suite of options for both horned and hornless qunari. A good deal of the appeal of playing a qunari, for me, still comes from their possession of horns. If the only decent hairstyles appear on the hornless variants, that would be quite blow to their appeal. I don't think players should be forced into a trade-off between cool horns and palatable hair for a race that, historically, has had access to both.

True I'd rather faster because I don't mind trading horns for hair XD
And true enough. I'm just not sure why we couldn't get a shoulder length slicked back style. That was difficult? =/
If you thought that Santa beard was bad, skip to 5:06 of the following video and pause it:
The hair texture doesn't look any better. And the red color of the cornrows looks terrible against the green skin shade... It just looks laughably bad. Totally fake. Is this really the best you can do, Bioware? I'm disappointed.
Holy crap it looks even worse. How did it get worse? How did a whole group of professionals look at that hair and say "yeah this is good, lets put this in the game as is!" It's like me as a cake decorator making a cake like this and putting it out for sale
Heh that looks like the cake I made for my birthday.
...stupid pot heads ate all of it 
But yeah questionable taste was questionable.
To sell that cake, believe that it's "art" hard enough that other people believe it tooHoly crap it looks even worse. How did it get worse?

Am I the only one that looked at that and only thought, "Okay, that looks tasty?"
I get what you guys were going with, but probably using baked goods isn't the best comparison. 
For some of the comments you guys have been making, I'd start digging up tattoo fails. Not cake. Cake is just...yummy.

Lol cake is what I know XD
And I'm sure the Qunari has a great personality...lol
Here's a better example. On par skill wise with the Qunari hair
Oh lawd, that male qunari looked so ridiculous I lmfao when I saw him from the front! 
Guess that means playing as male wouldn't solve the issue. I usually love beards, too. Great. They gonna ruin that for me too?! 
R.I.P. beards. Ye shall be missed.

Nope first thing was "I would eat that...I'd need a bowl and a spoon but I would eat that"
XD
To be honest, almost every beard that has been available for the player for BioWare games is ultimately worse than the hair options most of the time.

Sounds kinky when you put it that way.

Yeah that's why I tend to use the stubble. The beards are often sigh worthy.
Yeah, the beards always have been meh. Still, I never literally laughed at one before today. He just looks like Santa Qun.
Here's a tattoo fail picture to get you guys started, because the cake fails aren't working for me. Besides, for now, just like with a tattoo, the hair we're picking is permanent on our character:
Yea I guess my qunaris are in backseat waiting for hair miracle to happen before I'm playing them. Quite sad, they were my preferred race before hair fiasco.

You would eat the second one too? 
I've seen that tattoo before btw, super horrible (though ironically the tattoo artist did a decent job on the hair)
