After creating your Arisen and first pawn at the start of the game, you will need to visit certain locations to edit characters in Dragon's Dogma 2. Keep playing the game till you reach the first major settlement: Vermund in Vernworth.

Go to the Grand Riftstone of Vermund in this location and talk to the Pawn Guild Vendor beside it to gain access to their shop. Purchase the special tome called Art of Metamorphosis. This item allows you to completely change your character's look. Each tome will cost around 500 RC (Rift Crystals).

Head to one of the Barberie shops which is marked as Scissors on your map. Speak to the shop vendor and select the Modify Appearance option. You can select either the Arisen or your main Pawn in Dragon's Dogma 2. Select the character you want to edit, and you will be taken to the character creator.

From here, you can edit the appearance of your character and change any part that you deem necessary. Remember that the use of Art of Metamorphosis is limited, as each time you use the Modify Appearance option, one of the tomes will be consumed. So, make the essential edits when you use one because this resource is very hard to find.

There is also another way to edit characters in Dragon's Dogma 2. However, this will only provide a few cosmetic changes and not alter your entire appearance. You can change the following options for your characters, such as hairstyle, makeup, and marking with a bit of gold. Head to the Barberie and interact with the vendor to execute these changes.
