I am sure it has been mentioned in the past but I will mention it again. Why do the Zabrak males have more hair options than the females? The males are able to have full heads of hair but the females only mullets, horns, and a balded ponytale. I would love to seethe females have the same choises as the males in the hair department. It's like it's backwards or something.......
C'mon show the Zabrak females some love...

I agree, the female Zabrak definately gets the short end of the stick in the hair department. I hadn't realized that males got more hairstyles, but they do have some nice ones that would look good on a female.

Back in the dayus Zabraks used to be able to have a nice full head of hair.. I have only been a Master ID since June 04 and didnt pick up on this until then. I wonder which patch took it away? Mullets arent very becoming of us females

I've had a female Zab for a long, long time and don't remember ever seeing any hairstyle options available that we don't have now. Unfortunately, I think there may have been a few more in beta but for some reason they never made it in. Also, months and months ago, there was a bug that allowed avatars to wear the hairstyles of different races and at that time you may have seen them wearing full heads of hair that were likely borrowed from humans. That bug was fixed though so it's no longer possible.
Honestly, I almost didn't make my alt a Zab female just because of the terrible hair options. 
Hopefully, some day in the future the devs will give them a little love on their hair.

That bug was so harmless that in some ways I wish MIDs had the option of giving Zabraks a limited amount of human hairstyles. I perfectly understand why they didn't want it in the game, but it wasn't hurting anyone in that it was ruining game play. Sure, there is the "immersion" argument where that a Zab shouldn't have a full head of hair... but this is supposedly an advanced society. We have hair transplants in the real world... it seems somewhat plausible in this make believe one.
Oh well.

/agree!!
the hairstyles are so horrible...only one that works is the ponytail and maybe one long hair version (although her head is then half shaved).. /sigh I try to make up for it by doing it in every color possible but still.. please show us some love

Completely agree! This is actually one of reasons I ended up destroying an early incarnation of my alt that was a Zab. I just couldn't live with hideous selection of hairstyles. Sorry I need more than two or three viable options :-)

The human males also have more hair styles (40) than the females (38).
Must be the vanity

Some of those male human hairstyles are gender-neutral too. Why they can't give all the gender-neutral hairstyles to both sexes is beyond me.

Agreed 
and the receeding hairline styles......*shakes her head*
and the receeding hairline styles......*shakes her head*Every single female zab I see chooses the bald ponytail as the lesser of several evils....it does seem odd that the males have styles that give them more hair than the females O_o

and why don't male an female zab's have eyebrows? I can't tell you how much this irritates me to no end. I had made a female zab on sunrunner and ended up deleting her cause i couldn't stand the way her face looked with out them.
