About getting the players hair color to apply to an armor piece

[glad berry]

I'm looking to make a head vanity item similar to the "Gentleman's beard" accessory from Terraria, which uses the player's Hair color to modify its own sprite to use the same colors as the player's hair

Is it at all possible to get the player's set hair color variable and hex codes to apply onto a head armor piece in the same way or similarly to how dyes do?

If not, is there any way to achieve the effect I am looking for?

Yes. You can use the player.getHairDirectives callback (takes no arguments) in xSB-2 or StarExtensions to get the player's hair directives, then tack them onto an armour piece which you then "re-equip" with player.setEquippedItem. xSB-2 and SE make the player table available in status effect scripts.
