A hair salon simulator is charging a fortune for a DLC to… let the hair grow long

I don’t know how to deliver this news without it sounding like an April Fool’s joke, but I promise you it’s completely true. If you’re gamers, I don’t think it will be hard for you to believe that there is a hairdressing simulator called Hairdresser Simulator, developed by the studio Frozen Way and released nine months ago. As of today, you can find it at an average price everywhere, and it promises that you will gradually improve your hairdressing skills, discovering how a hairstyle can change someone. Well. Not all hairstyles, apparently.

Are you pulling my leg?

Believe it or not, if you want to let your clients have long hair, you’ll have no choice but to buy the new expansion for the DLC called, coincidentally, “Long Hair DLC”. And yes, I said “buy”: on December 5th, this paid addition will allow you not only to have longer hair to style, but also new mechanics related to it. One would think that a game about hairdressing should already have an option for all hair lengths from the start, but if they can make a few extra dollars, why not take advantage?

By the way, and to be fair: the DLC will have more than just a simple hairstyle, such as new tools, characters with a unique story (which promises to be exciting) and up to 15 new styles. Steam is certainly buzzing.
