How can I filter and compare hairstyles when changing my appearance?

When summoning the aesthetician to change your appearance, you can use the "pin" function to filter the available hairstyles.

To make use of this function, simply scroll through and right-click the hairstyles which catch your eye. Pinned hairstyles will be marked with an icon in the upper right corner.

Once you have made your choices, you can filter out the unselected hairstyles by checking the Show Only Pinned Hairstyles box at the top of the screen.

The wide range of hairstyles available in FFXIV can be overwhelming, so the pin function is perfect for picking out and comparing a more exclusive selection.

* Pinned hairstyle selections will be reset after dismissing the aesthetician.

Access to the aesthetician can be unlocked after reaching level 15 and completing the quest "Beauty Is Only Scalp Deep."
