🎯 Tips & Tricks
Make sure to extract the mod files into your Mods folder (usually in AppData/Local/Larian Studios/Baldur's Gate 3/Mods).
If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, you can install it with one click – just make sure it's enabled before launching the game.
Check the mod's page for any required dependencies – since none are listed, it should work standalone, but always read the comments for user reports.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing without checking requirements
👍 Pros
- Massive community approval (25,210 endorsements) – this is one of the most trusted head mods out there.
- Huge download count (1.6M) means it's battle-tested and works for tons of players.
- Simple concept – just new heads – so it's easy to understand and use.
👎 Cons
- The description is super thin – no details on how many heads or what styles, so you're going in blind.
- No install instructions provided by the author – you'll need to figure it out yourself or rely on common knowledge.
- Only adds heads, not other customisation options – if you want more than that, look elsewhere.
