We intentionally didn't let pugs spawn with wigs because both we didn't want pugs to blend in with humans too much (wigs were added a little bit before development on pug finished, we definitely wouldn't have let them spawn with Just Hair at the time) and because I personally don't like how they look on pugs very much (me having drawn the pug sprites being why my view in particular is relevant.)
I still don't really like the idea aesthetically for what it's worth. I recognize that pugs are light on customization compared to other mutantraces, and also that it's difficult to really add a lot since I want them to still look vaguely like pugs (ie: not be able to have arbitrary fur colors) and pugs IRL can be pretty same-y looking. To me, being able to wear fancy clothes and hats makes up for this, but I see the Want to have it at roundstart instantly and with the billion hairstyles. I'd vouch for adding some other form of customization in its place but I really struggle to think of something you'd put on pugs, since they don't really have frills or antennae like other species.
I don't really wanna stonewall the change if most other devs end up wanting it, but I really don't. If we do implement it, I'd like if they had like a funny little fur-less bald spot under the wig to keep with the Comedy angle pugs have though, since I think that would be a funny way to implement it.
