I will admit, I am not currently playing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. The reason “why” is a tale as old as time – I have not played Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.
…Or rather, I have played it briefly and loved it, and realised it’s a game I want to sit down and enjoy properly – not in 10 minutes chunks in-between the rest of the chaos that is my life.
So I am precariously employing my usual method to try and enjoy the buzz that surrounds it’s release without entirely spoiling myself on it’s narrative – looking at niche discussion topics where story beats do not often dwell. And this time, I am just eating up Cal Kestis Hairposting.
He's so pretty. How can I go back to the old hair? 😍 #JediSurvivor #JediSurvivorSpoilers #CalKestis pic.twitter.com/HYIC4Ep2dE

All over social media – Twitter especially – people are fawning over the amazing looks they can impart on our Jedi Survivor. I am sure there is a wondrous range of clothing options that help tie in the entire look – but I am dedicated to the follicles baby.
Luscious locks, whether they are nestling around the ears or gently flowing down the back of his neck are deadset wicked:
Yellow lightsaber, full beard and long hair.
Living that Jedi dream. Was a bit unsure at very beginning of the game, but back to that great action adventure feel of the first one now – solve puzzles, jump gaps, slice things.
Good times.#JediSurvivor pic.twitter.com/ji1p3TYULS

Cal Kestis has a rare idle animation where he deconstructs his Lightsaber in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor! 🤯 pic.twitter.com/Llt7FFPuFf

The real highlight comes from the deadset legends that are rocking the classic mullet and hella-great horseshoe moustache. These versions of Cal have every bit of party they need in the back, with the front presenting it’s own unique impact with that stellar mouth framing. It’s the kind of look I wish I could pull off without having to commit to it for literally weeks – maybe for a night out? Or a job interview?

If you make it through your Jedi Survivor playthrough without equipping the mullet, then we're not friends.

I am never changing Cal's look to anything else in Jedi Survivor.
He's ride or die with that mullet and handlebar mustache combo. pic.twitter.com/Yxt9VyA8QC

As mentioned above, it is absolutely a very RIDE OR DIE look – and given the fantastical nature of the Star Wars universe, Cal Kestis will absolutely ride on.
It’s amazing that the most motivating factor that has me wanting to pick up the game is that I want to explore the phenomenal follicles at my disposal. With a lofty score of 9 from our very own Adam, I can be confident it’s going to be an enjoyable time.
I better hurry through Fallen Order.
