Hairstyle

Starting in, the player has the option to change their hairstyle at Harriet's barber shop, Shampoodle. In, Shampoodle is available inside of Nookington's, meaning that the player will have to unlock Nookington's before being able to change their hairstyle. In, Shampoodle returns in the City and is located at the right side of the town, down the alleyway. In, Shampoodle again needs to be unlocked, after which it is found on the right side of Main Street above the Able Sisters. In all three games, haircuts cost 3,000 Bells, and can be done only once per day.

In, players can freely change their hair at any time after unlocking the Styling Machine. In, the player is able to customize their hair in the Tutorial and in the Settings menu. In, players select their hairstyle in the beginning, and can freely change their hairstyle afterwards (once they have crafted a mirror).

Players can also wear wigs in order to access additional hairstyles. While technically considered a type of headgear, wigs will match the player's current hair color.

Questions
The questions are as follows:


 * 1) Harriet: "Hmm. Now tell me, sugar, when do you want your style to REALLY come alive?"
 * 2) Harriet: "Do you like the sun? How does it make you feel? (if answered "Every day.") OR "I'll bet you're just the toast of every party, aren't you?" (if answered "Big nights!")
 * 3) Harriet will ask one of the following:
 * "If you were rushing to the salon and someone were to call to you, what would you do?" (if first answered "Every day." and then "Warm...")
 * "Are clothes important to you?" (if answered "Every day." and then "Sweaty.")
 * "If your ideal hairstyle were a song, what kind of song would it be?" (if first answered "Big nights!" and then "Well duh!")
 * "Well, will you tell me a bit about your primping routine?" (if first answered "Big nights!" and then "Unfortunately...")

Guide to
All New Leaf hairstyles are also available for players to choose from in and.

Opposite Gender Hairstyles
It is possible to receive the opposite gender's hairstyles. In, Harriet will only offer this option to players who have received all hairstyles of their own gender at least once. In and, players need to get a haircut 15 times before the option appears, but do not need to get every available style. In, opposite gender hairstyles will not be available during the initial character creation, but can later be selected after unlocking the Styling Machine.

There is no option for opposite gender hairstyles in.

In, gender is referred to as 'style'. Both styles are accessible to the player during character creation and onwards.

Bed Head
Bed head is a messy hairstyle that appears in and. It occurs when the player has not played for 15 days or more, or when time travel more than two weeks forward or backward. If the player does not replace it with a new haircut, villagers may comment on the player's hair, and it will be more difficult to pass Gracie's fashion check in City Folk. Harriet will also comment on it when the player receives a new haircut to replace the bed head.

Bed head will overwrite any other hairstyle the player has, but it will not change the hair color. If bed head overwrites an opposite gender hairstyle, it will become the opposite gender's bed head style.

Unlike all standard New Leaf hairstyles, bed head is unavailable in and.
