More Ethic Hairstyles

So why not make it available for all races to use? Not everyone wants that design on the side, so please make it available for Hyur as well.

Also, there's no dreads hairstyles. How about short, mid, and long dreadlocks?
Also, I would love to have Amarant Coral's dreads from FFIX, that covers your eyes.

Even Barret's high-top fade would be awesome as well.

Just something I was wishing since I'm a black Hyur player.

So they're a troll because they made a spelling error?

I'm a troll because I left out the "n" in ethnic in the title? Wow!

And I CARE. Because like many other color players who play this game, I want hairstyles that reflects me. You might not care because you already have hair that reflect you.

The contest was not exclusive to Japan, because among the entries there were non-Japanese people who submitted pictures of themselves and their hairstyle. The nicknames were in Japanese because it was the Japanese devs that organized the thing. Dunno if all the winners were Japanese but 5 of em are for sure.

Btw, did you notice that two of the runner-ups were from the same guy? And both made it into the game? Kinda bullshit don't you think?

I don't know who made what but if it's in the game it's only because of the voting by players.
As for the ones that didn't get in it seems clear to me that who ever made the black looking hair style for dudes also submitted the black looking hair style for females seeing as it's so close in art style and theme. I don't think they name anyone though and just give the styles nick-names.

Also, they are getting into theories.

In that regard, it depends on your beliefs. As a Black man, I don't consider any of my relatives or skinfolk to be apes without getting decked.....

The evolution and big-bang people do a lot of moon-walking and back peddling.......Example, a BIG-Bang lacks the intellect to carefully piece components of the universe together to ensure people are not disintegrate by the sun. If one is saying a big bang ALONE caused this...........

A theory changes when an alternate hypothesis comes into play. Here is the definition of a theory.....

I would say yes to more hairstyles in general. Character creation in this game is lacking imo. I am not expecting BDO......But it could be better imo.

I have to say, that the hairstyle options are rather locking,mostly because of the contest.

However for that reason I do think it might be a good idea to have a few more contests with specific themes (Cutesy/Moe [I need more pig-tailed options :P], African, Punk, Long-haired, Hispanic, maybe even one based around past FF character hairstyles), preferably without player voting or at least a mandatory template to filter out the artstyle factor.

As it is. most of the current hairstyles does seem for lack of a better term, white-coded and that does seem to be a diversity issue overall.
