What's behind the hair?

I've noticed that all the Miqote hair styles cover the sides of their head. Even the males. We have yet to see short enough hairstyles to see what exactly is behind the hair where the human ears would normally be. Can you imagine a bald Miqote?

best hair


Serious reply: It's probably just a coincidence

It's because not seeing ears on the side of the head would look weird so they cover it up.

Bald Miqote would look weird, it'd still be cool though.

Normally, human ears would be there, but as they already have cat ears, nothing would be there.
I assume that it's done to avoid it from looking uncanny and weird.

How long until this becomes a thread about how many ways there are to skin a cat?

Disembodied ears side, that's not so bad. Would like to see buzzcut manqo'te hairstyles. Not cueball like the image but enough fuzz to make the ears not look weird.

I logged in one day looking like this. The glitch persisted through duties until I logged out and back in again.

I thought that perhaps I was the unwilling recipient of chemotherapy or a childish prank the type seen at sleepovers. Fortunately, nobody else could see the glitch but me >:3

Lol, the face of that Hyur behind.

:O This proves the glitch I have been having not with hair but with dat files not loading for monsters and mounts. When your hair didn't load did the game lag out at all?

Simple solution, put human ears on miqo's as well. I've played a game where the race had both ears..

Can't unsee it XD

It would be too disturbing seeing nothing where ears would usually be, hence why it's all covered up.

i dont think it looks so bad they just need to attach the ears lol... but the fact that they left them floating means they never plan to add for miquote really short haircuts ( ' x '

I heard it's a very small pixel, with Yoshi-P's face engraved into it.

If I am not mistaken, SE pointed this out back in a thread where people demanded that all hairstyles were made available for each race and gender without distinction. They said this would be difficult to implement for Miqo'te, as they want to try to keep the sides of the head (where human ears would be) covered, as their impression is that an otherwise choice would make the model look weird, and to some, disturbing. So I think we will continue to see Miqo'te hair covering the side ^^; hope nobody out there was wishing for a bald cut.

this is how I envision a hairless miqo'te:

And yes, that is a real cat.
