Yeah, I might buy more hair if they were wigs rather than hair, but there are only finite amount of hair style available at any given time. The FP sink would only work temporarily and then I would hoard the hair and never buy new ones until new styles came out. This way, every time I want new hair it works as a FP sink. Sort of like... having a small, regular salary versus having massive, unreliable commission when working. I'd much rather have small, regular salary than have massive amounts of money sporadically.
i agree, so i was trying to think of ways that both kinds of hair would be profitable. some of these ideas could be implemented together.
1. make the keepable/wig hair VERY expensive- say the 40&50fp hair could be 5k, 1k hair at least 10k, etc. so that that a significant amount of people would think "eh, i don't want to pay that much, i'll just take the cheaper option"
2. wigs would only have solid color options and/or colors exclusive to the wigs, so those that want two-tone would still have to buy the other kind
3. only have the starter hairstyles available as wigs. since they are so inexpensive (40 & 50fp), just one as a 5k wig would be worth 100 hair changes. even if they were only available as solid colors, it would be a huge fp sink, if you add the two-tone option, it'd probably go through the roof. and since only 10 of the 60-some odd hairstyles are the starter hair, people would still want the other styles and sink fp into them
4. have wigs sets available as
items in the treasure trove. say, sets of 3 or 4 styles each. they could be existing styles in colors not offered in the CC shop, new styles altogether, or re-colors of older MT or TT wigs such as the the themis, victorian, vampire, sakura, & luna wigs - the voodoo wig without the bone would be fantastic too. those would all look pretty awesome in the same color range as, say, the majolica wigs.
i'm mostly going with the idea of using existing styles so it would be less work for Firn, but new ones would be great too if she felt like working on them.
i'm just hair crazy- the main reason i bought more than one color of the majolica sets is for the hair
not that the sets aren't cute, but i would have just gotten the one in my favorite color if it weren't for the wigs, LOL. i'd happily buy any MT/TT set that came with hair even if i didn't like any of the rest of it!
and i'll be getting the knuffle sets as soon as i donate again, both because they are awesome AND because OMG hair (and eyes too! whee!) i've been buying as many of the older wigs as i can in the market, but some just aren't that versatile because they have ears or some other feature that makes them too 'themed'.
i hope that Firn will at least consider some more wig options :-)
EDIT:
we do have the "Alice" dress- it's the "Frog Infernal Ruffled Dress" in Blue, available in The Lunatic Fringe
the Mad Hatters coat looks like the "Puppet Strings Ruffled Jacket" but it's not available in that color (pink? claret?), as far as i can tell.
