How to Change Hair and Customize Character Appearance in Fallout 76

Bethesda is going in a slightly different direction with Fallout 76. Instead of being a massive single-player, open-world RPG, this time around we’re getting an online, shared world, multiplayer game with survival elements. However, the game still gives you the freedom to create your character and tailor their appearance to your liking. Here’s what you need to know about how to change hair and customize character appearance in Fallout 76.

How to Change Hair in Fallout 76

The nice thing about Fallout 76 is that you can basically change your character’s hair and your character appearance anytime you’d like. At the start of the game, you’ll be able to customize them however you like. But if you change your mind after creating your character, that’s alright too.

When you’re in the game, simply bring up the menu, and then hit L1 or LB and choose the Change Appearance option. From here, you can edit your character’s appearance in Fallout 76 by customizing their facial features, hair, and hair color.

It’s a pretty convenient feature that lets you have total control over how your character looks in the game at all times. Just make sure you’re in a safe area before changing your character appearance, as you still run the risk of getting attacked by enemies and other players.
