If you regret your decision in choosing an Octoling over an Inkling in Splatoon 3 or vice versa, you are able to change between the two, but it is a bit of a hidden feature. Here is your step-by-step guide for how to change between an Inkling and Octoling:
It is strange that Splatoon 3 forces you to go through a bigger process to change between an Inkling or Octoling, but this menu does allow for some additional customization options. Using this method, you will also be able to change your eye color and your small fry’s hairstyle. These are settings that cannot be changed using the gear-changing menus.
Once you choose an Inkling or Octoling, their hairstyles are all available to you and are not gender-locked. That means if you are playing as an Inkling, you can choose all of the Inkling hairstyles at any time during your playthrough but will not have access to the Octoling hairstyles unless you change to an Octoling. The same goes for Octolings being locked out of Inkling hairstyles.
If you want some additional tips on changing your character’s appearance, we’ve got a guide for that too. For now, this is all you need to know to change between an Inkling or an Octoling in Splatoon 3.
