Why is all the new hair that get added short hair?

I have alts and can use those hairstyles. That elf with the braids especially!

Also, to add to the thread, it seems like the developers are also too scared to add hairstyles that actually have some creativity to them. We have, like three or four short hairstyles that actually have that kind of effort put into them that aren't race bound but the rest almost look like carbon copies of eachother save for a few. The developers need to learn that it's okay to get creative with the hairstyles. Trying to please everyone with these boring androgynous hairstyles is never going to work in neither the short or long run. :/

I wouldn't consider the new hairstyle to be short, it's medium length.

I wish we had more short hair options that weren't feminine/androgynous.

(labored breathing) please.... yotsuyu hairstyle.... i'd die for it

I have alts and the occasional fantasia addiction my dude. :)

I just wish they had more dude hair styles. There are very few masculine looking hair styles and it makes me sad.

It's so we can live out our wildest dreams of speaking to the manager in game!

Maybe once they've added them all they'll hold another contest and a longer style will win.

Alright lets rig this!

Everyone only submit long hairstyles in the next contest!

Meanwhile I will go cry in my viera corner. I hope everyone else is enjoying their new hair :'D

I will join you in said Viera Crying Corner.

Also, for the record, the new hair is a short hair style, with longer bangs. “Not short enough for me” does not mean it is not considered a short style. I say this from a place of “I want more short hair anyway, and make it shorter”.
