Character Customization is Not Available
EnlargeYou cannot change the Main Character's appearance in Genshin Impact. However, it's possible to change the look of their Wind Gliders by tapping the Hanger icon on the lower right of the character's Details Screen.
EnlargeTapping that icon opens the list of available skins for your character's Wind Glider.
This is the Same For Other Characters
At the time of writing, obtained characters' appearances cannot be changed. Mihoyo's characters in Genshin Impact are well designed so a time where their appearances can be changed may not come but who know?
