This "stopping at/above the shoulders" trend with all hairstyles is getting to be old; there's absolutely no variety to be had in length. You're stuck with either short hair or shoulder length; or down to the scapula in Female Au Ri's case and the hime cut.

Like, I don't see a reason as to why we need to have such short hairstyles, and I highly doubt it's an engine limitation at this point. Personally, I feel that many of the hair contest styles were greatly diverse and should have been heavily considered over others, but instead we essentially got the same tired and true "short" styles that we continue receiving to this day.

Something genuinely unique; and of varying lengths, would be a godsend.
