Need to know how to get the Close Shave hairstyle in FFXIV? Read on. No FFXIV patch is complete without a cool new hairstyle to collect. Without grabbing the latest edition of Modern Aesthetics like it's a magazine, you won't be able to select the 'A Close Shave' hairstyle as the new do for your character at the Aesethtician. Here's how to get it.
Like any hairstyle unlock in past FFXIV patches, the Modern Aesthetics - A Close Shave is bound to be a little tricky to obtain at release. It's been a while since a hairystle was practically free at the Gold Saucer, and with us not knowing how to grab it for hours after the release of its relevant patch, that's enough to suggest it'll be a hot market board item when it's discovered.
We have a lot of other guides up for FFXIV 6.35. Also check out the 6.35 quest locations guide if you're missing any unlocks. We even have a Fashion Report guide we update weekly if you need an easy boost to your MGP.
How to get the Close Shave hairstyle in FFXIV 6.35
Modern Aesthetics - A Close Shave is obtained via a random drop by scanning the sacks that are dropped in the Accursed Hoard inside Eureka Orthos. This is totally free to acquire, but note that the dungeon changes from time to time so the drops could also change. Your only requirement is luck.
A Close Shave can be obtained from any sack ranging from Bronze to Platinum ranks. The higher the rank, the better the chance of getting it. Don't worry though since you can just spam Floors 21-30 while leveling for a job.
It can also be traded and can be bought from the Market Board. Remember though that Deep Dungeon items are very expensive when it is newly released, so do be careful.
