The male hair style that won is awful

I love that male hairstyle it's super cute! I can't wait for it to be added to the game

Beyond caring anymore, congrats to the winners, shame on SE, and all that rot. I'm not against a side ponytail however I feel the accessory is what made the hairstyle not the actual style itself the way it's drawn it's clear the artist wanted to feature that enormous flower that isn't part of the players head unless we're becoming potted plants in 3.1. I feel styles that featured unneeded additions or props should have been auto disqualified. An example of essential accessories, combs, pins, minor very small additions which are not large or noticeable. The minute that hairstyle goes into game there will be an immediate forum posted cry to let people dye it, mark these words. A side pony tail is fine but what won that contest was the flower, not the hair. I say implement runner up 1 and add a few Flower head pieces call it a day.

This is so amazingly accurate. I said the same thing about people getting upset about not being able to dye the flower.

I'm really happy about the female winner. It's simple but still cute imo. The 1st female runner up is the same ponytail we got with HW, just with a braid slapped onto it.
The male one is cute too! I'll definitely have to remake one of my retainers into a Miqo boy to use it when it comes out.

I guess we have different games.

All the submissions sucked, girly hair for men? I swear this community prefers playing dress up more than actual gameplay mechanics and quality of life stuff.

WHHHHHHHHHHHY SOOOOOOOOOOOO SERRRRRRRIOUS?!

Not that I don't think the current winners didn't deserve their wins, I'm sure they put alot of thought and time into their designs like the others, however the voting criteria was incomplete when the contest was announced and once it was added it was after the how to vote section meaning people would still be possibly unaware of only their last like in each catagory counting.

In my opinion SE should have put the voting criteria in the section on how to vote before telling us to vote by liking on the official forums, as well as making it clear that only your last like counts so if you want something other than what's on the tail end of the list to win either relike the entry you want to win most or only like one entry for each catagory.

OR SE could have done what makes sense and go by total number of likes and not this 'what was liked last' bullcrap as it takes into account the situation of if someone like multiple entries but isn't bothered about who wins and negates the unfair advantage of being the last entries. It's also the simplest to count and simplest to understand, just like what you like, no complications. The only downside to this is that it's easier to see what is absolutely winning without having to speculate, but this would be lessened by the fact that all votes count now rather than that arbitrary last.

Yes sure the entry with the most actual likes (in the female entries) is the one that I wanted to win, however it was primarily because out of all the entries I liked it was the one I felt would use the most resources, the fact that I liked it most and liked the art style had little to do with it. It just means that unless some of the runner-ups are brought into the game I'm just not going to change hairstyle which is no big loss. What is a big loss is what could have been if only SE had been clearer (read: made it more obvious to the people that just jump to the 'how do vote' section and leave to vote as soon as the knew where to go) with how the tallying process was to be done and urged people to think carefully.

Not really digging the simple/cute vibe I'm getting from the winner. I was kinda hoping for something more exotic or wild - something that screams "adventurer" rather than "delicate flower".

[BunnyChain]

One more to the mix.

I'm glad sausage-braid didn't make it at least.
All the hairstyle nicknames are Japanese?

[Jin-]

[TheUltimate3]

Aw the hairstyle I wanted got Runner-Up. Pity. I wanted the braid. Aw well, so is life.

Good job winners.
