Hi i'm having trouble creating a hair changing GUI that inserts hair into the folder that is in a players head, see what I want is for the Hair Changer to get 2 MeshParts (Hair meshes) to overlap eachother which you can see in this video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGcBR4AjhWQ&list=LL8Pi3gtj9ud-VM4RryqHL_g&index=8&t=134s

I want this so the player is able to have a piece of dyed hair and their own unique combination (but don't worry about the colours I made coloured meshparts in a hair folder in ServerStorage and have a button for each hair mesh)

Now I have tried to do this by duplicating the HairGui which is a scrollingframe with buttons for each Hair/Meshpart and I tried renaming all the variables like folder to folder2 in the second HairGui which we'll call HairGui2.

If you're wondering about the script I followed this tutorial from the timestamp 14:33 (for the FolderCreate) script as I missed out the script that removes the players hair when they spawn because im using a StarterCharacter in StarterPlayer so they all spawn bald anyway The real part starts at the timestamp 20:18

Now here are my scripts which I followed during the tutorial

FolderCreate in ServerScriptService, as you can see I pasted the first FolderCreate function and put 2 after it (which you dont see in the video) to try and make my overlapping of 2 hair models on the player work 

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect (function(char)
		local folder = Instance.new("Folder")
		
		folder.Parent = char.Head 
		folder.Name = "Hair"
		
	end)
end)


--2nd Folder
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect (function(char)
		local folder2 = Instance.new("Folder")
		
		folder2.Parent = char.Head 
		folder2.Name = "Hair2"
		
	end)
end)

Now here is the HairScript also in ServerScriptService (which you see in the video)

--EmoHair1 game.ReplicatedStorage.HairEvents.HairEvent1.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr) local storage = game.ReplicatedStorage.Hair.EmoHair1 local char = plr.Character

if char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
	local folder = char.Head.Hair 
	
	folder:ClearAllChildren()
	
	local head = char.Head
	local New_Hair = storage:Clone()
	New_Hair.Parent = folder
	New_Hair.Position = head.Position
	local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
	weld.Parent = New_Hair
	weld.Part0,weld.Part1 = head,New_Hair
	weld.C0 = CFrame.new(0,0.6,0)
	weld.C1 = head.HairAttachment.CFrame
	
end

end)

--EmoHair1!Dye game.ReplicatedStorage.HairEvents.HairEvent2.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr) local storage = game.ReplicatedStorage.Hair.EmoHair1DYE local char = plr.Character

if char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
	local folder = char.Head.Hair 
	
	folder:ClearAllChildren()
	
	local head = char.Head
	local New_Hair = storage:Clone()
	New_Hair.Parent = folder
	New_Hair.Position = head.Position
	local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
	weld.Parent = New_Hair
	weld.Part0,weld.Part1 = head,New_Hair
	weld.C0 = CFrame.new(0,0.6,0)
	weld.C1 = head.HairAttachment.CFrame
	
end

end)

I think the main culprit of my problem is the folder:ClearAllChildren() as it clears away both hair/meshmodels in the players head folders, HairFolder1 and HairFolder2

If you're wondering what I mean, I tried to tackle my problem by copying this script and naming it HairScript2 and replacing variables with 2's on the ends of them so HairScript would only clear the Hair/MeshParts in HairFolder1 and the same with HairScript2 with HairFolder2

HairFolder2 in ServerScriptService

--BuzzCut1
game.ReplicatedStorage.HairEvents.HairEvent3.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr)
	local storage = game.ReplicatedStorage.Hair.BuzzCut1
	local char = plr.Character
	
	if char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		local folder2 = char.Head.Hair2
		
		folder2:ClearAllChildren()
		
		local head = char.Head
		local New_Hair = storage:Clone()
		New_Hair.Parent = folder2
		New_Hair.Name = "BuzzCutU1"
		New_Hair.Position = head.Position
		local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
		weld.Parent = New_Hair
		weld.Part0,weld.Part1 = head,New_Hair
		weld.C0 = CFrame.new(0,0.85,0)
		weld.C1 = head.HairAttachment.CFrame
		
	end
end)

--BuzzCut2
game.ReplicatedStorage.HairEvents.HairEvent4.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr)
	local storage = game.ReplicatedStorage.Hair.BuzzCut1DYE
	local char = plr.Character
	
	if char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		local folder2 = char.Head.Hair2
		
		
		
		local head = char.Head
		local New_Hair = storage:Clone()
		New_Hair.Parent = folder2
		New_Hair.Name = "BuzzCutU1DYE"
		New_Hair.Position = head.Position
		local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
		weld.Parent = New_Hair
		weld.Part0,weld.Part1 = head,New_Hair
		weld.C0 = CFrame.new(0,0.85,0)
		weld.C1 = head.HairAttachment.CFrame
		
	end
end)

Alas, this did not work and both scripts end up clearing both the folders children (Hair/Meshparts) like so:

HairScript --> ClearChildren() in character.Head.folder1 HairScript2 --> ClearChildren() in character.Head.folder2

That is what I hope for but both do HairScript --> ClearChildren() in character.Head.folder1 AND folder2 HairScript2 --> ClearChildren() in character.Head.folder2 AND folder1

That is what I not want

discord me for screenshots and details please
