Restoring Asari "Hair"
In some cases, I have Asari coming in with 'shaved' hair, as well as Asari colonists reverting to a 'shaved' head after using the styling station. Is there any way to revert such changes or prevent it?

You'd have to edit the race xml for the asari to change the has style field to true, but honestly, I don't remember a single Asari in any mass effect games or books even wearing a wig, which now that I think about it, is kinda odd. Maybe it's against their religion?

I know I'm a bit late with the reply here, but since I was looking for a answer myself and couldn't find one in any discussion or comments, I dug a little myself and found a solution for those who couldn't figure it out. This is specifically for the Asari respirator, but can probably apply to other hats if need be.

The reason the Asari 'tentacles' disappear when equipping the respirator is because the def for it is missing the <hatRenderedFrontOfFace>true</hatRenderedFrontOfFace> tag. I fixed this in-game with the 'In-game Def Editor' mod by changing the 'hatRenderedFrontOfFace' value from false to true.

Alternatively, you can change the def file directly as well. The def for the respirator is located in the ThingDefs_Misc\Apparel_Headgear.xml file. In that file, you can see that the Justicar crown has the tag, but the respirator is missing it, so just add in <hatRenderedFrontOfFace>true</hatRenderedFrontOfFace> under the <useWornGraphicMask>true</useWornGraphicMask> tag and it should solve the issue.

Hope this helps anyone who is/was still looking for a solution on this. o7

Where is the 'hatRenderedFrontOfFace' in the In-game Editor?
