[Touhou] I'm curious on opinions. What is favored for Futo's hair. Full ponytail, or half ponytail?

絕世黃瓜
Basically

絕世黃瓜
full ponytail.


絕世黃瓜
half ponytail.


TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
uh... it's the same style. they're both knotted just below the same point on the head

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
or do you mean the fact that not all of her hair is bound up in the sprite

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
because that's less a hairstyle choice and more a realism error

絕世黃瓜
I mean that she has the bottom half of her hair short

絕世黃瓜
And it is a real hair style

絕世黃瓜
It means the under side of her hair is short.

絕世黃瓜
I see both styles used.

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
... yeah, I'm too used to cosmetology terms so I'm not sure I can parse what you're talking about, herp

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
because from what I'm looking at, the only difference is that she has length on the sides in the sprite

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
which technically shouldn't be there if her hair is meant to be long enough to pull that much back in the first place.

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
or else it wouldn't be so full in the tail itself

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
basically, the first images hairstyle can be replicated in real life, the second can't without some really bizarre/creative styling

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
or at least without weaves

絕世黃瓜


絕世黃瓜
Like these

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
the first image, that's just neckhair. the second has the issues I was talking about.

絕世黃瓜
I've seen this IRL

絕世黃瓜
What you do is you take most the hair, but not all of it

絕世黃瓜
Put it up

絕世黃瓜
the rest is down

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
yeah, but then the tail itself isn't as full

絕世黃瓜
But instead of having it the length of everything else, you cut it short.

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
or at least not as full as the artists seem to think it would be

絕世黃瓜
Well yeah, her ponytail is way too thick

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
which is fine, animoo hair and all

絕世黃瓜
Though

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
I just think the former style is more realistic and fitting of a person from that time period

絕世黃瓜
my hair is pretty thick even with not all of it.

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
because the second requires a lot more modern hairstyling

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
but, then again

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
Miko's permanent bedhead

絕世黃瓜
Her hair and clothes make me think of a little boy.

絕世黃瓜
Miko's hair is rediculous.

TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
so I guess go with whichever you think is more flattering to you (ASSUMING THIS IS FOR COSPLAY)

絕世黃瓜
And yeah, considering it about cosplay

絕世黃瓜
Guess it depends on which is harder to pull off too

絕世黃瓜
I'll admit half down is easier.

絕世黃瓜
Rather than trying to get a wig to be pulled up.

絕世黃瓜
Maybe it would be more of a concern if I made Hopeless Masquerade clothes. But I rather like the outfit from Ten Desires better.

絕世黃瓜
Even if technically the sleeves for HM are probably more accurate for her time period..
