    Your logic makes no sense.

    Group x has 10 hairstyles to choose from.
    Group y has a different 10 hairstyles to choose from.
    Group z has access to all 20 hairstyles.

    The odds of a group x member having the same hairstyle as another group x member are 1:10.
    The odds of a group y member having the same hairstyle as another group y member are 1:10.
    The odds of a group z member having the same hairstyle as another group z member are 1:20.

    It's inane to think that opening up all hairstyles to all races will make everyone look samey.

    And yet, the original elezen-only "new" hairstyle (the long, parted hair with the single braid in the back) is by far the most common hairstyle I see, yet when it was elezen-only, elezen barely wore it. People pick favorites. If they released all of the hairstyles to everyone, you bet you would see 3 or 4 way way more than the others, because people would pick their favorites instead of choosing the best out of the hand dealt to them.


    Personally it's just hair so I think it should be open to everyone. Though I wouldn't be opposed to hairstyle with actual substance like a geisha updo for au ra ladies or a samurai top knot for au ra men, or a French twist for elezen ladies or a pompadour for highlander men. Something with actual like cultural references to the races or actual meaning instead of just "Oh yeah apparently only elezen women can cram 40 pins into a generic (as opposed to iconic), flat, bob hairstyle." Like if they are going to give everyone something unique, make it worthwhile, instead of just slapping a restriction on something that was plain/simple to begin with.

    Uh, question i figure this is a place to pose this.

    I believe today I saw another Au ra with dreadlocks, if this indeed a thing, where do I get them?

    If they aren't already available in the aesthetician, I hazard a guess its gained via the gold saucer prizes.

    I just wish we could only buy the hairstyles of some outfits in the cash shop. I only want the minfilla hairstyle, yet I'm forced to get the complete set.
