Hi everyone! This is my first post. I've been in SL for many years now but I just mainly wandered around different sims and didn't care much about how my avatar looked before. I decided to go back and introduce my husband to SL, but I forgot the password and email for my original avatar so I recently made a new one. Obviously, I'm new to SL fashion and mesh bodies, so I really need your help. I bought a Belleza Freya body and am using the Medium skin tone that comes with it. While looking around the store, I saw a really nice Belleza Skin Applier (Jordan) in Medium. I bought that too, thinking that I only needed that and not a head. After looking up some more information online, I stumbled upon Catwa Heads and decided to buy the Koura head. I used the Belleza Jordan Skin Applier on top of it and I liked how my avatar looks. I am also using the shape that comes with the Catwa Head and just did some slide work to suit my taste. However, I noticed this neck line that I'm trying hard to get rid of. I've tried looking up tutorials and even tried to change my windlight settings to no avail. (I'm using Firestorm Viewer.) Does anybody know any fix for this? I've also noticed that when I used the neck sheath function on the Belleza Body HUD, the neck sheath appears slightly bigger than the Catwa Head neck sheath/alpha. Also, when I turn off the Catwa Head's neck sheath/alpha, the neck part disappears. Sorry if this is a noob question. Any help would be appreciated.

I am looking for a head and/or head shape to match my own face. I have viewed many however I find that many are either too feminine or too mascline looking to match my own. I also find that the eyebrows on a lot of them are very bushy and un-groomed and my own are rather precise as I fill them with powder and brow mascara. Another issue is the eyelids on many male heads are rather hooded and my own are almond shaped. Another issue is a lot of the fair skinned heads I feel look quite Hispanic or Latino and while I find these types of faces very attractive, in RL and in SL, Im Scottish and fair skinned, so they don't resemble me. Basically I am seeking a European fair skinned appearance, with fairly open eye sockets, a defined jaw line, full (but not too full) lips and clear skin. I am not seeking compliments or insults on my appearance, just some recommendations on head shapes and bento heads, and also facial modifiers that I could utilize to match my real life appearance. Currently I have an AK Leon, which does not look like me one bit.

Was just at Genesis Lab in-world store and really don't understand what I'm looking at. (still a bit of a noob with this Bento business) On one wall at their in-world store, there's a few heads - that's clear enough. Further to the right of those heads, is a wall of 'HUD skins', with absolutely nothing to say what heads they're intended for. Clear as mud. (Prices are quite clear though.) On the opposite wall to those two walls, is a bunch of gacha stuff that I'm not really interested in, unless you're meant to play L$4000 worth of gachas to get a head that will only match one of the 'HUD skins' on the aforementioned wall - ? Is that what they're for? I manged to get through the Catwa and LeLutka learning curves without too many bruises (or any, really - they were pretty easy), but Genesis Lab? I mean, for the love of last night's leftovers, why is this stuff so complicated? Or am I just exceptionally dumb? (don't answer that!)

Helloo, so i've just bought a female Bento head for my male avatar(becouse i liked the way it was made and i wanted to try it with my mudskin's skin wich is for male) and i have a male slink mesh body, the only problem was that the bento head had onlycould be worn with a female shape and it had an how can i say...small neck for my slink mesh body and idk what to do becouse...Can anybody tell me what to do, becouse i don't want to buy a female mesh body or anything...
