Elaborate Rococo Wig for Gen 8

Would love to see some baroque, Rococo, Antoinette-inspired hair. Fancy, opulent, over-the-top. Preferably with ships, birds, jewels and pearls in it.
The bigger the hair, the closer to god.

It’s not nearly as elaborate (or absurd) as your examples, but have you seen Historical Hair?
I have! Basically, what I'm saying is that... I want THAT, times 10. I am sure I could layer up Historial Hair with a few props and embellishments, but I wish someone would just go all-out and sculpt a beatiful hair masterpiece.
I rather see the problem with the fact that in G8 or G3 we do not have (at least no significant selection of) clothes (male & female) that would fit a rococo hairstyle context......
Next year I will try to realize a project whose plot takes place 1770s–1780s in the South Atlantic and Indian Ocean and I will need a large number of illustrations. ... so I would be very much interested, as far as the articles represent more everyday use as "Schönbrunn and Versailles styles" ...but the "Ile Bourbon" had a reputation of elegance à la Française far away from Europe ...
andreretogasser, your project sounds compelling! What a beautiful reference image, and I'd love to experience the story. I'm already deeply intrigued. Anything else about it you could share?
I'm going to be doing a separate product request post for Baroque and Rococo fashions. There will be many ridiculous reference images! For now, I will just post this interesting article: https://historyofeuropeanfashion.wordpress.com/category/baroquerococo-1650-1800/
Thank you for the useful background info. Whether you can witness the story depends if you count pen & paper role-playing to your hobbies (or are open to try it). - The project is planned for 2020, but as far as I know pARasit-Editions is always looking for volunteer test-players and voice-actors. Contact = parasit.editions@laposte.net
Check out the "Grand Siecle Hair for G3 females" by powerage on Renderosity.
I think it's safe to say it's basically exactly what you want. Lots of morphs and customizations... and birds, jewels, and pearls are all something you could put in it to make it perfect.
Indeed! I actually found that last night and was elated. Now, I must learn how to use the hair converter. I'm excited! Thank you!
You could always combine some hairs like scoops on an icecream cone
No need for the converter.

Do this.
You don't have to adjust anything. Just load them both in, select the G8F, the Hair, transfer rigging, change scene identification, and save the hair.
COOL TUTORIAL! :)
You don't even have to do the transfer rigging step when you're converting hair. Just load the hair without the G8F being selected, change the scene identification of the hair, and fit it to the G8F. Essentially all G3 hair is G8 hair too, and vice versa - all you have to do is tell Daz which model you plan to fit it to. I suspect you can do the same thing fitting male hair to female models (and vice versa) within the same generation, but haven't really tested that.
