So I'm sorry, this seems to be related about a forge mod I use and when I posted the issue I forgot about that so I'm closing the issue, I'm sorry for disturbing you.
Edit: I'm not allowed to close this issue, but this would be the wrong place to continue this conversation because it's not a Minecraft Launcher bug.
Edit 2: It is still happening with Vanilla Minecraft, just had to clean cache in the /assets/skins folder. A guide on how to reproduce it soon
I have only noticed this issue on Hypixel SkyBlock, can't say if it happens in other places too since that is the only Minecraft 1.8.9 that I play.
Guide on how to reproduce the issue:
1. Go into the .minecraft folder even if you created a separate folder for installations.
2. open the assets folder
3. delete the skins folder with all it's contents
4. Open the Minecraft Launcher
5. Create a new installation with the 1.8.9 Minecraft version
6. Run Minecraft with that profile.
7. Go to Multiplayer and connect to Hypixel - ip: mc.hypixel.net
8. When connected do the following:
click on the compass in your hotbar
click onto the player head named "Skyblock 0.19 RIFT"
type the command "/hub", you will get teleported to a different world
if you turn a little to the left you should see a "big" building, go inside of it
To fix the issue install java 8 from https://www.java.com/en/download/, in the Minecraft Launcher Installation settings, under the "Java executable option" browse to the java folder, open /bin, select javaw.exe. Save the profile and repeat steps 6 to 8. All the custom player heads will load correctly (see Image 2).
