Thanks to mythandral for inspiring this mod via their body hair edits:
- Type 1 edit: https://www.xivmodarchive.com/modid/110117 (This Type 1 edit's normals are also used as a point of reference/one of the layers I used in editing the Type 2 textures.)
- Type 3 edit: https://www.xivmodarchive.com/modid/117122

Thanks to my cool friends for lending me their lads to help with preview image! :)

Author's Comments:

A personal edit that I decided to spruce up and post because I figured if I wanted it, then maybe others would appreciate it as well!

Adjustments to The Body SE's Type 2 body hair, including:
- Less chest hair across all options.
- Three color shift options, handled via diffuse textures: Lighter/TBSE Default (white hair on diffuse), Midtone (no hair on diffuse), and Darker (dark gray hair on diffuse).
- Three levels of thickness, handled via normal textures: default (100% opacity), less thick (~80-60% opacity), and least thick (~50-30% opacity)

Compatible with any TBSE textures. Has a symmetrical compatibility mode for old TB mods and vanilla.

If you use custom diffuse mods, you will need to add (if not present) or edit (if already present) the body hair on your diffuse yourself.
(The body hair will still show up as the thickness effect is primarily via the normal textures. I can't promise how it will look over tattoos.)

Recommended priority order:
Higher: Diffuse-only mods, such as tattoos
[This mod]
Lower: The Body SE

Like TBSE's built-in options, not every hair-color and skin-tone combination will look awesome, but this is my first mod (barely even; I just edited the textures to the best of my ability using layer masks, settings, and clipping layers) and I did my best to include options to mitigate weirdness. 😔

PSD files are NOT included in the download for this mod. The reason for this is that I did not actually have any transparent overlays to work with while editing these textures, so there are no transparent layers to add scars or tattoos underneath. The textures can be exported as PNGs via Textools and Penumbra, though.
