Remaking Mercedes for default hair

So recently I've been missing my mercedes' old default hair.
I changed it before the salon system came out so I don't have it saved.
I've been thinking of making a whole new mercedes just to have the wonderful elegant hair again.
I can move all my gear over to my "new" mercedes if I were to remake it, but my old mercedes does have the blackswordsman medal, so I've kind of been reluctant on remaking.
That is why I am here asking you wonderful people on whether merc's default hair is worth more than the black swordsman medal. Thanks!

@okaythen: They put some default class things in royals recently. Some examples are both of Kinesis' default faces, one of Luminous' default hair, one of Xenon's hairs, etc.

@okaythen You have to get Shining Star to get the mixed hair dye coupon. Either be in the top 5 for one game or top 100 in the overall rankings. It took me a whole month to reach the top 100 in the overall rankings tho, but hey, getting that coupon was worth it!

@whatisakelly: The colours just aren't the same but um... how do you get the mixed hair dye from star planet?

@eonangel: Oh, thanks! Will they really take a default class hair into consideration though? I've never seen any of them in a royal rotation.

@okaythen Request mercedes hair in this thread on the official forums if you ok with spending nx. You may have to wait a few months if the hair is unpopular; and I think the more people that request it, the sooner it'll appear in the royals rotation?

If you like the color of the Mercedes hair that much, you can just get a mixed hair dye coupon from Star Planet and pick the colors you want from there. (;

@hyhfct Thank you for your input! I just really liked it because you can get some really nice colour gradients while the standard jean hair has a very solid colour.
Umm, also this is a bit off topic but, what medal that is obtainable would be the next best after blackswordsman?

@okaythen: Tbh merc hair is just a reskin of the Jean hair, which you can get in the upcoming beauty coupon event (again). Just that it won't have that nice tint of green and the leaves in it. I don't think it's worth your time and money to move everything from your current merc to a new one just for your hair (I'm assuming you have untradeable but psokable gear), but I admire your ambition.

Bottom line: Not worth, don't do it.

@hyhfct I care about both equally! I cannot decide! You must decide for me as I am a very indecisive person who can't get anywhere in life because of my indecisiveness!

If you care more about cosmetics > dmg then yes. The medal cannot be gained through anything anymore, so if you care about novelties & dmg > cosmetics, then no.

Edit: I guess I should only mention that apart from the Beater medal, BSM is the next best medal in the game, but medals don't make much of a diff in dmg, just a few thousand in your range.
