The Nords are known to have "coarse hair" ... sort of like the red guards I presume? So I wondered why it was never an option ..... I see orcs with dreads but I also see them with strait hairstyles. All the elves but the Orsimer are able to get the "high style" hair, like an afro that looks gelled up, except its natural ...... which begs the question, why not other mer with dreads? Imagine a Dunmer with a nice set of dreads or an Altm .. er actually that sounds stupid I take that back. But seriously a Dunmer with dreads would be my aesthetic dream come true.

Even Hair Mods really lack diversity in Hairstyles. A thread was started on another Website about the lack of Afro's and Dreadlock Hairstyles available, and I can not link to it due to the nature of the Forum.

Maybe they just wanted to give the RG something unique? It makes sense that Nords especially would an option for dreads too, but it makes playing an Orc or RG infinitely more interesting IMO.
