A friend of mine commented that women don’t seem to have as many hair style options as men. Specifically, she has long hair IRL but can’t choose long hair or even a long braid for her avatar. Seems like it should be relatively easy for the developers to program. I emailed Zwift customer support a…

Hey folks! Noticed some recent activity on this thread and I wanted to pop in and provide some clarification to make sure ya’ll know we’re listening! The reason Zwift has yet to add longer hairstyle options for avatars is simply due to graphical limitations. Notice that all hairstyles are above th…

Yes please! No options for long haired riders! A simple braid would do it. I suspect the people that want it in general won’t be on the forums, so demand will be greater than on here. Thanks developers! :grinning:

[image] joules: While I understand this may not be the answer many of ya’ll were searching for, I hope this clarifies the limitation with the current hairstyles in game, and let’s ya’ll know your requests are being heard and discussed Julie – thank you for reading and responding. I hope this …
