There are many ways to customize your appearance in Final Fantasy XIV.
Since you won’t have many opportunities to change your character’s appearance completely, which is only possible by using Fantasia potions, the Aesthetician and glamours make up the main ways to customize in the game.
The Aesthetician only requires a small amount of gil in exchange for changing some features of your appearance, such as hairstyle, hair color, and face tattoos. You can summon him by clicking on his bell after retiring in your inn room, which is possible in every main city’s inn.
Here are all the hairstyles you can unlock after your character’s creation and how to get them.
