Any word on changes to hair and skin textures?

Hey folks.

With the last patch we got some changes to hair (and I think as mentioned in the blog skin textures).

Troublesome part for me is that the changes don’t look “right” to me (I have all graphic options completely maxed). With “right” I mean subjectively not good even and certainly no improvement.

My Bajoran fem toon looks like she did not wash her hair in weeks while my human main’s skin looks like it never saw any daylight in like ever.

Troublesome part is it does not stop there. Clothing, kit visuals, everything looks different and in some cases even not fitting with one another anymore.

Hence my question:

Do we have any word that changes made so far here are meant for real and will stay that way or has it been hinted somewhere that we can (hopefully) see some further adjusted?

If it’s just me I will learn to live with it but would rather not have to. :/

    This time they f***ed it up good. Why do they keep making things worse?
    Granted, the old hair (prior to Jan 20) looked a little glossy for my taste, but the current state is downright awful. The same applies to skin textures and colours.

    Supposed to be live now but I have not noticed anything, the white color nodes still look dark gray on white hair on some hair models.

    I would like them to just add all hair models in the game to the menu, including npc hair models, the hair menu as diverse as it is could use an upgrade.

    The hairstyle "long middle parted" in colour F1 (black) looks like it is mouldy. In general, this colour now looks pretty bad on any hairstyle, but this is the worst IMO. They seemed to have removed the reddish tint of the skin colour somewhat. One of my characters looked like sunburnt with a tanned skin.
