    Well that makes it easier to wash her hair in the sink I guess.

    But also, hear me out, what if instead of that plastic thing she had a quick release hook, so she could use the tail (and the hook) for self defence? Hell, make the tail of braided leather and you got a cool whip for impromptu BSDM session!

    I don’t know why it bothers me that it’s “dead” hair, because effectively nothing has changed. It’s like a pseudo wig that isn’t trying to hide anything, which is super cool

        The moment your hair cells leave the pores on the skin of your head

        Even before that. You pull a hair out, and if that specific hair follicle was still growing you should see a teeny-tiny bulb at the very end. That bulb can be up to a mm beneath the skin. The widest part of that bulb is where the hair cells begin dying and drying out. By the time it shrinks down to the width of the rest of the hair (and long before it emerges from the pore), all the cells in that section are dead. Only the base of the bulb has living, growing hair cells.

              Well I’ll have to look it up now, but I see it as a substance produced by the body that isn’t made of cells itself. Like any of the other excretions and things the body makes.

              Edit: apparently both your nails and hair are mostly made of keratin, but keratin isn’t produced and excreted to produce the nail and hair structures like a playdough factory like I imagined. Special cells are produced that are primarily keratin and they are added to like a chain and die/harden as they are pushed out from the body.

    Neat style, I also think its really neat how the shadow falls on her neck. The silhouette is just slightly not the same as the shape, and it looks pretty cool.

    When you decide to donate to locks-for-love but realize to late it was your lucky ponytail.

    I’m pretty sure that’s someone else’s hair (the color and texture don’t quite match) but I don’t care. That’s amazing and genius.

    I’m going to tell myself it’s something really cool like anodized titanium and not just plastic.

    Is that fake?

    It really doesn’t look like there’s enough hair length on here head to hold that.

    I.e. that’s not enough hair to hold it like that

      I don’t see anything that screams AI, and given how hideous unique that top is and the consistency of the weave edges I think this is just from a fashion show.

        Dior Spring 2015 Couture, if anyone is curious. I remember these ponytails vividly, my younger sister chopped her hair off trying to recreate them using her own hair and two curtain rings.

        We subsequently had all our magazine subscriptions cancelled.

            I unfortunately have no photographic evidence, I was too busy trying to help hide the evidence before my parents got home. No idea how we were planning on explain my sister’s sudden hair loss…

            Believe it as much as you would a funny story on the internet.

      She probably has shoulder length hair left, enough to make a regular ponytail. Then you hold the ring from the bottom up against behind the hair tie, curl the ponytail down and through the ring and turn it up so that it rests against the scalp and use some of her cut hair to tie the whole thing together, hiding the ponytail beneath.
