Bun Haircut vs Miqo'te

Please fix this SE. T_T It's an amazingly cute hairstyle but the position of the buns is absolutely ridiculous on the Miqo'te.

Who fell asleep at the wheel on this one?

For Miqo'te they could also leave the buns off, since the ears are there.

Y'a all asking for a no bun version ? Let's go for it :

I would totally be OK with a no-bun option, although some of the alternate-location pictures posted are kinda cute as well.

The bunless look was what was done when the old Lalafell odango hair was co-opted for Miqo'te girls for 2.0. The ears simply replaced the location of the buns. It looked weird as heck on close-ups since the hair didn't have a proper end. It's not a popular hair style.

Most hairstyles just tack on the ears anyway without much care. The 2.0 ones have better detailing.

TBH I think placing them on the sides of the head is still better looking than making it appear the hair grows back into the head at the ears. Also, SE too care to make the hair texture on Miqo'te meet at the correct place on the bun, verses just moving the bun down and leaving the hair's direction alone, even if the ears are just pasted on top.

I would love a no bun version, to be honest.

Somebody please post an image of your cat in this style along with the fox ears for maximum ridiculousness.

If they get moved they need to change the hair texturing too or it looks just as strange, but in a different way. A no-bun alternate version would be amazing, though.

(I actually quite like the weird position as it's nice seeing exotic looks rather than conventional stuff. But I'm not playing a Miqo'te and my wife, who is, is insane, so I accept that my opinion is not really worth very much here!)
