I think most of us love having as much appearance customization as possible to avoid looking like everyone else, na matter the race we pick, too.I'm speaking from personal experience. I used to try to choose the less-common looks in the past, but eventually I realized that I was hampering my own experience just for the sake of "being different", so now I just don't bother unless it's something I would have picked anyway.
I used to be like that and I still enjoy being a rarer sight, but it's just not a big deal for me anymore because in a mmorps, there will be tons of everything, anyway.
Of course, if you would have chosen the less-common look anyway, then you're good, but I'd be very wary of looking over something you like just because lots of other people happen to like it as well. (What's that saying - "Great minds think alike"?)
