Just downloaded a bunch of characters. I saw some were notated with what they came with and other stuff in the preview photos that were not included. But none of them come with the hair they have on? So, Victoria 8, just shape and skin is what you are buying?
Yes, you're just getting the shape and skin (although occasionally a character includes some other elements, like an item of clothing. Tatoos appearing in the promo images are normally included too). Hair are never included.
Rarestone sell character with hair included... others sellers too
I stand corrected, I had never bought a character that included hair. However, I notice that they specifically mention it in the name of the product : "Grace Yong and Grace Yong hair", for instance.
Also, something that's just started in the last year or so with some Genesis 8 characters is included fibermesh eyebrows, with a few also having other hair bits. E.g. Thorn for Landon 8 has brows and a beard; Ryker HD for Vladimir 8 has the brows and beard, plus leg, arm, and other anatomical hair; Dior HD for Genesis 8 Female has brows, "peach fuzz" face hair and anatomical hair. There are probably others, that's just the ones I've bought.
To expand on what was already said: figures / hair / clothes / scenery, they are different items and also have unique challenges. Many artists specialize on one or two of those.
I'm looking out for more collaborations now. All items fit together, but some better than others. One bundle I like and use very much is Raiya 'Elysa figure' with Outoftouch 'Elysa Hair' and 'Elysa Outfit'. Those work very well together, it seems that OOT really tailored the hair and cloth to the figure and didn't just put a name on a "one size fits all". I recommend this highly if the style suits your taste.
a good idea would be to create a topic that would regroup the links of the characters sold with supplements, hair, clothes, pose, expression, props... etc

Read the "what's included" before buying an item.
Yes but it should be stressed that is the exception rather than the rule.
