Hairstyle Contest winners announced!

The male one is disappointing, but hey it isn't that damned ponytail.

The female one was actually the best, have a southeast asian vibe to it, very original and hot one.

I think they should hire one extra dev and his only job is to implement most of these hair styles.

Ugh of course the male one is some androgynous mess.

I think the fact that both winners had fewer votes and appeared later in the contest is a strong sign that people didn't understand the proper voting process. What I hope is that the devs or community team will acknowledge this and say they will add the 'popular vote' winners to the patch after 3.1. It's too late to hold another contest and I don't think it's fair to take back these winner's prizes. And maybe next time they can just have it that the most liked wins and vote for as many as you want, much clearer.

And for the winner? Cleaned up brushed version of the Lightning hair with the forehead showing, or pretty much a minimally adjusted version of a number of different hairs already in the game, with what could essentially be a piece of head gear (the flower) to make it stand out.

Honestly, you're just grasping at straws to try and prove that the one you like is so original and unique, while claiming the winner is just a copy. Cherry picking at it's finest.

Personally, there were a bunch of hairstyles shown in the thread of people NOT chosen that were far more amazing than anything in the contest. There were two, in particular, that were just gorgeous. But, we got what we got and it's done now.

I wouldn't say its original...I've seen that used on celebs all the time, and here in NYC I see it EVERYWHEREEEEE...I dunno about asia and what not but its been used throughout the world for the longest time. ^^;

Is there a male hair design that won?

I might have not liked the hair style, but I could at least respect them as an artist but not like this

Given how much more detail the entry has I'd say it's more an artistic rendition than direct copy.

the female winner one is so pretty but it looks somewhat like lightnings hairstyle (ponytail wise)
