Character Customization Guide
This is a guide to customizing your character, Eivor, in Assassin's Creed: Valhalla (AC Valhalla). Read more to find out about how you can customize Eivor using hairstyles, tattoos and other methods.

How to Customize Eivor

You can customize Eivor's tattoos and hairstyle by building the Tattoo Shop in Ravensthorpe. You can switch hairstyles and tattoos here without cost, as long as you have them unlocked.

The Tattoo Shop costs 600 Supplies and 45 Raw Materials.

Hairstyles

AC Valhalla Hairstyles
Hairstyles come in multiple variations of four colors: Dark Brown, Light Brown, Blond, and Red.

You can get more hairstyles in the Settlement Trader.

Beards

If you're playing the male version of Eivor, you also have access to change what kind of beard you have, and all beards will be automatically unlocked as. The beard color will automatically match the hair color.

Tattoos

You can get tattoos in different parts of your body as Eivor. There are multiple sets found through shops and collectibles.

There are different sets of tattoos, but you can mix and match the sets to make your ideal body! Take note that if you're playing Female Eivor, there will be a wrapping covering your chest, and tattoos will appear covered as well.

Your equipped armor and weapons can also be toggled to hide or show in the Inventory Menu, which adds another layer of customization for you.

For each armour piece there is also an option to hide it on the in game character, thus displaying any tattoos for the world to see.
