Videogame barbers have it hardest

If your favorite videogame character has a full head of hair, chances are, it isn’t their strong point. This is due in part to the fact hair follicles and how they flow from the roots of your head are very hard to recreate in a digital format.

What does this matter? Well, this leads to the overuse of lead characters that are either bald, wearing a skull cap or have the least amount of hair possible.

A great website known as NewScientist has released a video to demonstrate how designers are making strides in this field in order to create more life-like hair every day. The rendered hair within this video is actually quite impressive and would definitely lead to a higher sense of realism within gaming.

We’ve included the video below for you to enjoy.
