Need (more) male hair with receding hairlines

cherpenbeckcherpenbeck Posts: 1,413

Nearly all DAZ male hair has a very "normal" hairline which suits younger men and boys. But human caucasian males tend to get receding hairlines early and sometimes quite drastic. So hair like the new Gustavo Hair for Genesis 8 Male(s) looks fine, but somehow wrong if used on an elderly character. I would love to see a PA giving us male hair with different degrees of receding hairlines.

    It would be nice if @Zev0 would help us out with Growing Up Bald.

    Off the top of my head (excuse the pun) Vintage Male Hair has bald and comb-over options, Matthias hair has a receding hairline. Riccardo hair is balding. There are also some long male hairs with high hairlines in the store. Odin hair and abraham hair come to mind.

    Although I can do hair it ain't my thing lol. I'm sure those sets already exist in the store somewhere.

    Me!!  At this point it would be better if it would just keep going and recede down my neck so I could save on razor blades LOL

    There seem to be a lot of male hairs with receding hair lines... Can you show a pic of the degree of receeding you are looking for?

    I agree...seems every hair I try on an older male looks wrong to me in some way and it's usually the hairline. Even the shape of most male hairlines look wrong to me. :(

  • Miles Hair for G3M is one of my favorites, and dead simple to apply to Genesis 8.

    For the shaved hair, with the bald spots, just tweak the shorter styles shape. I get bald spots easily when they don't fit properly.

    Couldn't this be fairly easily solved with just doing some morphs on a G8M cap? You could fit the hair to the G8M cap and use the cap's morphs to recede the hairline? Theoretically, of course. I smell a product in there somewhere. Maybe @Sickleyield could make it - "Hairline Fixer" or something of the sort. :D

    With Miles hair, the hairline is okay, but the hair itself is too full, thick and healthy.

    Alchemist hair has an aggressively receding hairline as well as a combover option.

    Technically, already exists. Both Commander Hair and Tousled Hair by RedzStudio have adjustments to make the hairline recede. Since the vast majority of hair is made with female hairlines (no matter what character it's designed for), what you can do is to fit the hair cap for Commander or Tousled to G8M, delete the Commander or Tousled hair itself, fit your desired hair to the hair cap, then use the sliders. It doesn't work for all -- some are shaped so that this makes them look very strange -- but for a lot, it does.

    ...AprilYSH has a nice one (which would work well for a professor, accountant, or butler) but it is for Gen3/Gen4  Wish she'd do a remake of it. for G3/G8

    Riccardo Hair for Genesis 3 Male(s) by Linday might be what you're looking for.
