Generating Objects from Icons in Folder

Code:
proc
    CacheHairs()
        for(var/X in flist("Hairs/Base/"))
            //spawn(-1) world << "Hair Icon found? [X]"
            var/icon/I=new("Hairs/Base/[X]")
            var/obj/Hair/H = new()
            H.icon = I
            Hairs += H

mob
    proc
        LoadHairs(list/HairList)
            var/HairsVar=1
            for(var/x in HairList)
                HairsVar++
                winset(src,"HairGrid","current-cell=1x[HairsVar]")
                src << output(x,"HairGrid")


Problem description:

No hairs are shown. When the "world <<" line is not omitted, it posts as intended. When outputting the objects to HairGrid, nothing is shown.

Can provide more information on demand.

Hm, the way you are outputting the stuff is the old way. The new one is a one liner:
mob
    proc
        LoadHairs(list/HairList)
            var/HairsVar=1
            for(var/x in HairList)
                src << output(x,"HairGrid:1x[++HairsVar]") // [ID]:[column],[row]

++var adds 1 and returns the value. var++ is returning the value before adding 1.

Did you passed Hairs as the argument? Did you make sure that the grid's ID is spelled correctly and the case sensitivity is correct?

In response to GhostAnime
The code runs fine, it seems the icons aren't loading into the cache :/

Any ideas?
