Thanks for the help. Volkstone probably had the best of all those stores but while I was trying them on, I realized the skin applier I used for my mesh head actually came with a hairbase as well that I completely overlooked which works pretty well. I've set landmarks at all those locations for future usage anyway.

I've been looking for some time now for a decent hairbase that actually looks to have hair rather than giving an avatar a buzz or shaved head. Many of the hairstyles I'm finding are meant for that whole aesthetic (long at the top, shaved at the sides) but shaved isn't my style, I'd like to have noticeable hair around the sides of the head as well. All these hairstyles I'm trying on are all basically just weird, top pieces that suddenly stop at the center of the head and it looks odd to me to have that much hair on top while basically being bald everywhere else. For some hairbases that I've found, such as Vinny by Modulus, the applied product is different than what is shown in the images on the marketplace which was unfortunate because I actually liked the look of that one if it was exactly as advertised.

Using Firestorm viewer. Can't figure out how release my premium house so that I can cancel my subscription, since I don't really need it anymore. Would appreciate somebody giving me some instructions because I can't seem to find any obvious answers. Kind of dumb that Second Life doesn't automatically do it whenever you want to cancel the subscription.

Hello. I live in the USA, Florida. I was born there and spend much of my day trying to avoid the sun despite how I work outside in it. Fortunately, I am not a "Florida Man" meme yet and would say I'm probably mostly sane. I've been a huge PC gamer for over 20 years, mostly playing FPS games but I have experience in pretty much everything video games. On Second Life, I've had my account for 9+ years but only just started playing recently, so I'm basically a newbie and still learning. Spent much of my free time last weekend learning how to customize my avatar and exploring the world of Second Life but still struggling to find where people hang out at in an attempt to make friends or become a regular visitor somewhere. I've tried to engage numerous people so far in local chat but many seem to be idle or perhaps my avatar is just that intimidating with my bad sense for fashion. My main interest is mostly just chatting either text or even voice, if preferred. I generally talk to anybody. Roleplay seems to be a big thing here but I often find myself not taking very much seriously so I wouldn't be a serious person to roleplay with, especially after some whiskey, but I'd give it a shot. To be honest, I don't even know how to IM any of the people who have posted in this thread so that about sums up my current knowledge with Second Life.

Are there any reliable videos/guides to explain the shop and how to create a decent character? Apparently, I created this account back in 2010 but most likely didn't play Second Life for very long at the time because I didn't have a computer that was able to handle it. I've recently returned now that I can afford PC gaming, but I'm struggling to understand the game now. More specifically, creating a decent character, which is what is most important to me right now. I've found a head to use but have no idea how to remove clothing to be able to see what skins look like. Any time I "detach" clothing from one of those basic, starter avatars, it just turns my avatar invisible. I click on avatar components > avatar skins > male skins, and it mostly shows me head shapes, or complete junk. I read the details of products that look good and it completely confuses me. I click on one that is some sort of "modifiable shape" for a mesh head, but has 3 body shapes for some other mesh body, a "styling card" (whatever that is), etc. I'm trying to understand Second Life but it's rather frustrating for a returning player from 2010.
