Would be nice to finally get some Curly/Afro hairstyles included into the game

[Jolaseinde]

I’ve played the game since ARR, it would be really nice if we could get some Curly/Wavy/Messy/Afro hairstyles introduced into the game for players. It may not seem like a big deal to some but sometimes we wan’t to make characters we can relate to. Yes it’s fantasy but at times when making a character we might want to pick and mix characteristics from both the game and ourselves in real life. It’s unfair that there is no Curly/Wavy/Messy/Afro hairstyles in the game even after all this time there’s not really any excuse for it. Even if SE is a japanese company it’s irrelevant because it’s not like they don’t know that people with Curly/Wavy/Messy/Afro hair exist? And i for example have played the game for years and the lack of these options sometimes makes me feel left out. The only dreadlock hairstyle option in the game is available only to female characters i think its the female hyur. At times when i’ve made a dark skinned human hyur i’ve had to compromise with certain hairstyles which obviously look silly on him, please don’t mention the afro from the gold saucer lol (not to mention it’s not even offered as a default hairstyle).
PS i’m not really expecting a bunch of new curly hairstyles, if they just made dreads available for male counterparts i’d be cool with that

Edit: Please i would really appreciate it if everyone kept this civil and mature, not quite sure how a simple hairstyle type request for a video game can somehow trigger or offend people and cause arguments but please guys just chill and keep it nice.

Please. As a black woman irl who only makes black characters - this would be amazing.

I design characters that look like myself. So yes - I find it completely necessary. Sorry if me mentioning my ethnicity offends you.

kind of a joke that we have 50-billion anime protag hairs but barely any black/black-adjacent hairstyles.

i would say it is considering representation matters, and realistically, we only have two hairs that fit the criteria here, one of them being used as a joke hairstyle and the other being female-exclusive... so, options are lacking.

Stop trying to pull this person up short for saying what they want. You don't like that they said it, and that says things about you.

Also that red squiggle under the word "nesscary" you keep typing means you spelled it wrong.

There is an afro in-game, available at the Gold Saucer.

However... something about it doesn't sit right with me.

You're very welcome to cry about it some more if you fancy it.

Ultimately, I don't care. I was raised to be loud and proud - and I will remain as such.

Not exactly crying, just made a comment. I have friends and family like that also so I get it. Still seems weird to me but you do you.

Thanks, English is not my first language so I still make silly mistakes.
