As a suggestion in one of the art threads...possibly.
As a matter of course letting everyone do what they will in the costume maker...extremely highly unlikely. All the parts have to pass through the devs to make sure they work on all the types and sizes and don't clip, etc. It would be next to impossible for them to code what you're asking for, and take far more time and resources than would make it "worth it" to them.
Dec out.

Dreadlocks aren't inherent to black people...
Although maybe they should be. I see a white guy with dreads, I start looking around for the Phish concert.

All i can think of is this.

yeah, but its not common for most people who get dreadlocks that are not non-afro descent to have them they must put chemicals in there hair to harden or twist them and use heat then dread the hair, so naturally when I see the dreadlocks I see a black reference not a hippie trying to do a cultural change. same with blacks we have to put chemicals in their hair just to make it straight, because its not natural ha ha lol.

You notices he was poken fun at Rastafarian from Jamaicans that are afro-descent so that's my point when I see the dreads in game I don't see the Devs putting them in the game, because someone of another nationality wearing them, they know its commonly worn by afro-descent, and funny you to give me that video even his dreads look like real dreads, then the ones in-game that what makes that ironic ha ha lol.

While it's true that I do use the "dreadlocks" hairstyle on a couple of characters, they don't look anything like dreads, nor do I use them as if they were. I use it more for a "wild" type hairstyle, like for my Krazy Killer Klown with Klaws...Cut-Up!
Pointiest darned dreads you'll ever see. 
Dec out.

COV4LIFE missed it: You notices he was poken fun at Rastafarian from Jamaicans that are afro-descent... |

Well, something else, anyway. I believe this hairstyle is already called "Wild" (sorry, wish I had a better pic handy).|
COV4LIFE plays the name game: Yeah they should have called it that and not dreadlocks wild would have been better |

I was wondering, could it be possible we be able to design our own costume? the only problem I see is copy right issues that many might commit. Also, more hairstyles and maybe fix some of the ones that look God awful. Like dreadlocks, as a black male when I saw the dreadlocks I was offended a little but go over it but I was like, "Seriously, our hair looks like that!" I also would like to see more culture hairstyles like from china, traditional long braided ponytail ( I mean really long) or I would like to see a geisha kimono, or how about long straight hair (I mean really long) I had some many characters I wanted to create if I had the option of very long straight hair for both male and female.
