Peek-A-Boo Hair is a scripted hair accessory that allows for various actions with newly colored hair. It does not, however, change any part of your hair feature. The item is dyeable and works with most other scripted hair items. A notable exception: It seems a character cannot wear a Veola hair accessory, a hair bauble, and Peek-A-Boo hair at the same time. At this time, it does work concurrently with baubles and other hair altering items, such as the Wavedancer hair accessories, as well as hair flowers.

Peek-A-Boo Hair was sold in the Bloodriven Village shop, I See You beginning in February of 2023.

Additional Information

  • The item appears to be set up as "whatever you want that makes sense" / "color" / "hair" and thus pulls the messaging color from the middle 15.
  • When you use a Rainbow Tent dye the item properly changes. However, when you wear it, it will still reference the old color. Removing it caused it to fully update to the new color. Unsure if other actions performed on it will do an update.
  • Given that this item is basically just a verb trap, it should work with any hair altering items. It's at least confirmed as working with hair flowers.
