Anyone feel like recommending some? Mostly looking for nice hairstyles for male (though feel free to show me ones for women characters as well) characters as well us more hair colours, skin tones and whatnot. Also anyone know of any cool race mods?

nobody?

For hair, the go-to standards are ApachiiSkyHair and CoolHair.

For colors: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/6923 all you (more than you) need. I was just looking for something to let me make a redhead.

All of the races I ever see are pretty much "let me make my sixual fantasies a virtual reality" so I can't help much on that front.
