II. AFROSTROLOGY
hair inspiration for black people who want to try a new hairstyle but feel stuck. including natural hair styles & texture diversity.
all of this is theoretical, please keep that mind before u gone and take the advice of tumblr user hoodreader. ur own chart still has its own personal contexts that cannot be accounted for in a random post online, haha.
while anyone can read & enjoy this post, it is made with black people (and black hair) in mind. for that reason, my explanations will be from a black perspective.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
HAIRSTYLE TWO 🌾 DREADS, LOCS, OR DREADLOCKS. the purposeful matting of hair into tendril-like structures. u can start ur dreads in many ways: from braids, twists, freeforms, crochet, & more.
this style ruffles a lot of feathers with the discourse surrounding who started what, and what is cultural appropriation. the thing is hoodreader says #ArgueWitYaMama cuz hoodreader don’t gaf about a viking. i’m black so i’m talking about black people.
anyways… people dread or loc their hair for a lot of reasons. there’s cultural or religious reasons. there’s political reasons, especially with freeforms, to combat respectability politics concerning black hair. there’s just maintenance reasons. and there’s ’cuz people find them cunty! no matter ur reason, they’re a good option for black people looking to have a great cultural style that shows pride, commitment, and resilience.
okay, now that we know what dreadlocks are, i can begin to explain them astrologically. click “Keep Reading” below to keep reading. :]
Tumblr media
SATURNIANS. saturn in the first house/aspecting the ascendant or inner planets, capricorn or aquarius placements
WHY? saturn is the planetary ruler over patterns and textures. especially spirals, or things that are bound. dreadlocks — similar to a delicate yarn — are bound to themselves. this is also why i think that it looks best on kinky hair textures. it’s because black hair is naturally (usually) patterned hair.
it’s also particularly aquarius energy to me in the way that aquarius represents liberation and community. most radical people have some form of prominent aquarius energy in their charts because they don’t mind combatting the system. going against the grain is in their nature. the general public / world has a fetishized or low view of dreadlocks. by getting them, someone shows that they are committed to themselves and not to the conventional public opinion.
it shows commitment. and dedication. and it’s a wonderful way to honor ur ancestors.
JOVIALS. jupiter in the first house/aspecting the ascendant or inner planets/saturn, sagittarius or pisces placements, saturn in sag or pisces
WHY? jupiter represents freedom similarly to aquarius energy. the black people i met with dreads are usually free-spirited in some sort of way— they often are queer, spiritualists, sex workers, politically revolutionary, soulful, or just have a bright ‘auras’.
to many black cultures, it’s believed that dreadlocks represent enlightenment or wisdom. our hair tells us a lot of our crown chakra, and the dreads essentially absorb the wisdom u accumulate over ur life.
TAURUS INFLUENCE. inner planets in taurus (especially moon or venus), taurus ascendant, chart ruler in taurus, saturn in taurus
WHY? taurus just gives the earthy vibe, people usually ascribe ‘natural beauty’ to taurus. which is why i feel like a lot of effortlessly & naturally gorgeous earthy black girls with dreads tend to have that fixed / earthy appearance as well.
fixed also makes sense because dreads are ‘fixed’ in the way that they are effectively permanent or at least a meticulous style to take down. usually when people dread their hair it’s treated as a unreversible thing so they in it for the long haul. taurus is a sign that doesn’t like to be finicky or movable. it’s a real commitment.
SCORPIO INFLUENCE. scorpio ascendant/saturn, chart ruler in scorpio, scorpio inner planets
i think it’s somewhat scorpio to have these things bound to each other, so much that dead hair isn’t let go of either. u accumulate so much energy spiritually with dreads, which is why choosing to dread ur hair is a spiritually monumental decision whether u intend it to or not. scorpio rules things that are deeply intertwined with something else.
for both TAUREANS and SATURNIANS, i want to also mention that the dreadlocks are often compared to plants. for example when people use the term “budding.” saturn rules over agriculture and the ground/earth. taurus rules over flowers and things found in nature.
i think the TWELFTH HOUSE is also a house of significance. with venus or saturn here, i think it can possibly produce a native who wears dreadlocks. but i’m unsure why i feel this way. it was an intuitive inkling lol. maybe a black person with dreads and a 12H saturn/venus can explain. maybe it’s something to do with all of the social stigma attached to them.
i’m a 12H saturn and i never dreaded my hair but the appeal to me is reclaiming something that’s so stigmatized against simply because it’s a black thing to do. i love to reclaim things that society tells black people we should be ashamed of. just my input.
a part of me says VIRGO PLACEMENTS as well, although i’m unsure why. i just think earth placements overall give “wears dreads” energy. and i think virgo gives that energy because virgo is mutable earth — it’s movable but constrained at the same time? kinda like dreads. i also think virgos are very spiritual. very connected to the earth.
okay, those are my theories for dreadlock placements. here’s some examples:
Lisa Bonet (scorpio sun, capricorn mars, taurus moon) is known for her natural beauty and her dreadlocks that complements her appearance.
Lauryn Hill (virgo rising, sag moon, venus conjunct saturn) is known for her dreadlocks and her spirituality/politicalness. she’s viewed as a very wise person.
Whoopi Goldberg (scorpio sun, scorpio moon conj scorpio saturn, sag venus, aqua rising) is known for her dreads. i can’t say if she’s known for being exceptionally political or anything.
ALTERNATIVES if ur hesitant, i recommend trying twists just to see if u like them. if u like it, then maybe u can take that as a sign to go ahead and dread them up. but if not, just take them down — no harm no foul. u could also decorate ur dreads or try faux loc styles, but be care when taking them down! i see many a horror story lol
Tumblr media
aight now. i hope this was interesting. i don’t have any outro to write. lol i tried to think hard about this. i hope it inspires black people who been thinking about dreading to finally dread their hair. 🧘🏾 with love and power to my people, HoodReader

— Hair
Benimaru x black! Fem! Reader, Shinra x black! Fem! Reader
Synopsis: Which hairstyles they like on you the most
TW: None
Note: pictures aren’t mine, all are from Pinterest!
— BENIMARU
⇶ Benimaru is a very simple man when it comes to the things that please him
⇶ So while he thinks you’re gorgeous no matter what, he swears you’re the only person in the world when you have Fulani braids, regular box braids, or French curl braids
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
⇶ Fulani braids are his absolute favorite, and he takes no action in hiding that
⇶ Compliments you a lot already, but when you come home from a day out with Fulani braids, the affection from him seems uncharacteristically endless
⇶ Loves them with wooden beads especially, and if you have his name spelled out that in the beads, he might lose all his composure
Tumblr media
⇶ Can’t stop staring at them, and will just walk up to you and position them to where he can see his name in them
⇶ Especially when when he’s a little tipsy off sake, he’ll ask you over and over to show him while you’re sat on his lap and he has a dopey grin while kissing up the side of your face and neck
⇶ For box braids, he just loves how simple yet versatile they are
⇶ Always comes up behind you while you’re doing your hair and just watches you with adoration in his eyes
⇶ When you get done and ask him what he thinks, he always says “beautiful, as always, my love” and gives you a peck on the lips
⇶ While some may argue that French curl braids aren’t exactly simple, Beni just loves how the ends are so beautifully curled, and thinks you look so enamoring and elegant with them
⇶ Loves to fix your curls if they get tangled or one is out of place
⇶ And when you’re cuddling, he always gently pulls on the curls just to watch them bounce back up
⇶ Beni doesn’t care if your hair is long or short, but for styling he likes anything with claw clips, and half up half down. For colors he loves plain black, brown, or ginger
⇶ And for bolder colors, he likes dark blue or red (to match his eyes)
⇶ Beni is honestly a sucker for anything you do, but less really is more to him x
— SHINRA
⇶ Shinra LOVES locs
⇶ Natural or faux, it doesn’t matter to him
⇶ Just thinks locs are so beautiful on you, especially if they’re bright and colorful
⇶ For faux locs, he likes butterfly and distressed the most
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
⇶ Doesn’t matter if they’re long or short either, he loves it all
⇶ For natural locs, he helps you maintain them, with your guidance of course
⇶ Does your detox and wash for you, but he can’t help past that as much as he’d like to
⇶ He’s tried to watch retwist tutorials, and you’ve let him practice on you, but he just can’t get it
⇶ It makes him a little sad honestly, because he does wanna help but he just can’t do it
⇶ He’ll be able to with a bit more practice, but until then he just adds the clips onto your hair while you retwist
⇶ On top of his love for locs, he loves your natural hair
⇶ And again, especially if it’s dyed
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
⇶ Short, mid length, long, he doesn’t care!!!
⇶ Shinra loves when you have it out in an afro, but puffs, claw clips, and finger waves are all close rivals
⇶ He’s actually fully capable of helping you on wash days, so you can relax while he gets to work
⇶ He’s also oddly fast when he washes it for you? Much faster than you are or anyone else when they wash your hair, you don’t know how but you don’t question it either
⇶ He can even blow your hair out for you, and when it comes to protecting it before bed, he’s pretty decent at braiding and twisting!
⇶ But don’t bother asking for flat twists or cornrows, he will try his best, but your hair will be left in a tangled mess
⇶ Shinra loves putting on your bonnet for you too
⇶ If it’s been a long wash day, or you started late in the day just to finish late at night, he always runs to get your bonnet for you and gently slips it on your head before kissing your cheek
⇶ Really though, he’s just in love with your hair. And if your hair is as bold as he is, he’ll love it even more

Hi Kiko,
I love your work, you are my favorite sim creator, you have the best hair styles for sims 4 people of color.
I wanted to know if you can make more long natural hair styles - (locs with clips/gold and silver) in different styles for the women in sims 4 :)?
like some long locs with long side bangs
some with clips
different ombre and color options
more edges
hidden scalp, or brown variation of scalps, (brown or black scalp)
I used the gif below to show a example hairstyle that looks different and cool.
-
Hair, clothes, and shoes is most important to me in sims 4.
Thank you for having this option to contact you,
Sincerely,
Nikki
Tumblr media
I appreciate your admiration towards my artwork but this is a very disrespectful thing to ask of me. I'm not sure if this is an innocent ask, I don't see how it is because I know you've heard black people ask other cultures to not appropriate our hairstyles but I could be wrong, if this is innocent below are my boundaries, and explanations on why I (Kiko Vanity; I'm not speaking for the whole black community) I'd like to not be asked things like this in the future.
my boundaries and why
I do not make hair for people of color. People of color is a broad way to say people who are not of White/European/Anglo-Saxon phenotypes. That means people of Asian, Hispanic/Latino, African, Mixed-Race, and Aboriginal descent; and I create CC for simmers who appreciate my artwork but mainly and ideally create CC HAIRS for simmers of African descent, (including mixed race if they also have African descent) because of the lack of black hairstyles in the initial release of the game in 2014, with that, these black simmers create sims that also reflect their environments and black upbringings. I make black content if you feel comfortable downloading my content you should be comfortable saying black. I want to stress black and not African-American (despite me being African American) because there are different ethnicities for each race, including black people.
2. I am not currently taking hair requests because I'd get too many at one time and that's not great for my mental health. To piggyback off the last sentence and statement 1, please do not request my cultural hairstyles using someone who doesn't respect our wishes. You may be asking yourself, "why is this an issue? hair is hair?" (look below)
During chattel slavery, every fiber of the enslaved Africans' lives was controlled by the narcissistic people who kidnapped them. including hair, being made to cover their hair, and calling them names & degrading them for their natural hair. As the years went by and slavery ended black people but more specifically black fem presenting people held the shame for their hair. Fast forward to today, even with all the turmoil the world is facing due to greed, classism, and the patriarchy) this is the first time in history that their descendants (me being one of them) can set boundaries and say what we are comfortable with and what we are not comfortable with. And to put this as bluntly as I can:
Do not send me videos/photos/gifs of people culturally appropriating in black people's hairstyles, it's anxiety-inducing.
I'd like to also say I'm not angry because I know there is an angry black person stereotype, this is simply uncomfortable and disheartening. I hope you can respect my wishes if not please feel free to block me.
Lastly,
You don't have to respect or do anything I am saying. You may do as you wish after reading this. Just if you are going to engage with me these are my boundaries.

Natural: A journey of acceptance
Tumblr media
In January of this year, when I took down my passion twists, I was shocked by how uncomfortable and ugly I felt in my natural hair. This feeling was, let's be honest, insane. Why was I uncomfortable in the hair that God had blessed me with? The hair that grew from my scalp?  I was being weird and needed to do some introspection! As I began to wonder, I realized I had grown accustomed to seeing myself in everything but my natural hair. I was used to knotless box braids in shades 144, 530, and 613. I flaunted myself in curly wigs that emulated looser textures than my own. I spent hours with wobbly arms and sore fingertips meticulously parting my hair for mini passion twists and faux locs, and the minute these protective styles had run their course I took them out and redid them. No break between styles and certainly no rest for my natural strands.   
Something to note: When I refer to protective styles I am talking about those with added hair. 
I was so seasoned to ‘protective style Chels’ that ‘natural hair Chels’ was a version of me to be hidden away. I borderline idolized myself in ‘protective styles.’ This just wouldn't do. I decided to wear only my natural hair for the first half of 2024- no protective styles (with added hair), no dyeing or straightening, and no blow-drying. It was going to be just me and my coils against the world. This was my journey to self-acceptance.  
The first month was the hardest, I was afraid of people seeing my hair in its natural state after seeing me with protective styles majority of 2023. Also, I had no effective wash day routine. I didn't know how to properly manage my coils. I researched and experimented with different products and techniques that made my hair more manageable and healthier. Slowly I formulated a routine that worked for me. I created my own hair oils using coconut and rosemary oil. I deep conditioned every wash day; I trimmed my ends when needed; instead of blow-drying, I air-dried my hair; I applied my products in an order best-suited for me; and then I styled my hair into mini-twist, braids, or cornrows (all without any added hair). Additionally, I tried different natural hairstyles and found the ones I felt the prettiest and most confident wearing.  
I persevered through these six months and now I love my natural hair and admire myself in the various styles I wear. I also received more compliments on my natural hair than on protective styles. 
As I write this, it is currently July and I have no desire to get a protective style. I`m not saying that I`ll never rock a protective style again but I can confidently say that if I do, it won`t be to hide away my natural hair but just something fun and new. I no longer rely on protective styles as my go-to and can therefore enjoy them whenever I desire. 
I must emphasize that there is nothing wrong with protective styles. These styles are time-saving and convenient. Refraining from these styles was my way of gaining self-acceptance and confidence and becoming in my natural hair. It's all about finding what makes you feel self-assured, confident, and comfortable so do whatever works for you- whether it's your natural hair or protective styles.

Weasley Siblings Helping You With Your Protective Hairstyling
Tumblr media
Authors Note: I myself do not have textured hair, but I have friends who do. Along with friends who have family with such. I also did my best to research the best I can. DO COMMENT. I want to learn more about cultures and to educate myself after all. I wanna learn, and I want to share. I hope I do my best! If I got any information here wrong, DO say something. It can’t learn and grow if I don’t know, after all!
William ‘Bill’
Tumblr media
Since he spent quite a lot of time in Egypt, and by proxy explored many countries for work, he would honestly have some good background in protective styles. He would probably figure out your hair type easy, even. So he’s going to certainly help you when you want to redo your braids. Know where to cut when you need to change them out. Even know when you got braids you smack them when they get itchy. He’s even willing to braid them by hand, instead of magic. He probably even has friends back in Egypt to talk to that can hook you up with the good shit. That good gel and conditioner. Even some fine silk Bonnets, when you need them. He’s going to know them well. Most certainly had colleagues, from Egypt, that had braids or locs even! If anyone will know how to care for your hair, it’s him. Also helps he’s a history buff, so for all you know he uncovered some old texts that can teach him new ways to help!
Charlie
Tumblr media
He’s also a world travelver, and can be argued he’s been to more countries than Bill, but he was bit more hyperfixated on dragons over history. Doesn’t mean he knows nothing. He DOES know a lot about heat, and how it affects the world around it. He’s gonna know how to help you deal with that hit of humidity to the hair. Along with keep your hair safe when straightening it. He also knows a lot about locs. Definitely has coworkers with them, or at least keeps their hair under a Duka/wave cap. That’s something he so knows. Such as locs aren’t ’dirty hair’ and just another means of a style. Also that you gotta EARN EM. You need to go through so much to grow them, let alone care for them. He’s gotta respect the effort it takes to make after all. Of course he will help you care for em. Maybe he will ask advice on seeing if he has the hair type to have his own!
Percy
Tumblr media
He doesn’t really know much about by much at all. He’s never had a reason to. But he does know how to keep clean. He’s going to help you make sure your hair gets a deep wash before braiding. You’ll never worry about braiding greasy hair, or if your fro isn’t conditioned enough. He’s also a nerd that reads a lot. He will try his best to read up on your hair type, but reading is different than actually working with it. He’s gonna mostly be on washing, combing, and conditioning duty. He’s just got skilled enough to make sure your braids are tight. A tight braid is a useless braid. But washing is still helping a tongue, and he will massage your neck whenever you need to take a break from braiding. Stuff like that can take days, after all. He will try and be as supportive as he can for it all. He’s trying his best, and that’s all that can be asked for.
Fred and George
Tumblr media
Angelia is coming in clutch, because she is a “ended on good terms bestie” of them boys. So they know, at least the basics, when it comes to textured hair. Also helps they are incredibly quick witted, so they can pick up on things fast. Don’t get me started on how they probs can invent you different types of hair care products to unlock all the potential magic can offer. It’ll also help that they each can take a side of your head, and keep you entertained when braiding. They’ll make sure you have fun, and cared for. They’ll 100% invent a hair moisture spray to help you when your braids start itching. They would definitely love twists the most, to do to your hair. Hope you like orange and purple extensions. God the hair experiments. They’ll love trying out new hair styles on you endlessly. Hair clips in your fro, trying new braiding styles on your scalp, seeing what kind of extensions they can add. They love your textured hair. You can do so much with it, and they adore it so very much! They love your hair!
Ron
Tumblr media
Same like the twins, Ron has a basic knowledge on textured hair. Thanks to Hermione, and Lavender (iykyk) And given it was two different types he has a more solid grasp that not all hair is the same. Hermiones was dramatically different from Lavenders, after all. (Also the Weasleys themselves have their own texture hair, just on the 2a to 2c kind. The weather will definitely make it 3a though.) Anyway, he will ask Hermione for advice anyway. Asking someone who DOES have textured hair, compared to bullshitting. He just isn’t the twins when it comes to faking it until you make it. The amount of times he’s sprayed himself in the face with hairspray is never ending, but he’s a fighter. Definitely will try and make sure he has some kind of wave cap on hand for you at all times. Along with hair comb. Just trying to do things to show he cares. He definitely finds pure joy in buying you bonnets. Something he can get you, and something that will always be useful for you.
Ginny
Tumblr media
As the youngest, she learns alot from her brothers. From Hermione, Angelia, Lavender, her Quidditch players, and just typical by proxy of a girl sharing a dorm with girls that have to go through heavy routines for their nightly sleep. She just picks it up, absentmindedly, and doesn’t really notice until she applies it. She also has a lot of people for support when she wants to ask for advice. She WILL make those braids tight, and make sure your hair is pulled so far back you get a face lift. She is a certified ‘Ma’am I won’t have wrinkles until I’m eighty’ level of skill. She’s got you covered, and loves when you keep your hair natural as well. Reminds her of her older brother’s Bill and Charlie. Along with just finding hair pretty in general, having grown up surrounded by so many types. Shes gonna love doing your hair. She has never bern a 'girly girly' so she has fun doing it for others. Safe hands, no worries there!

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON WIGOLOGY (101 AND WHAT MAKES A WIG, WIG).
Inspired by @blackbyrenflowers hotd wigs
First things first,
What is a wig?
A hair piece is attached to one's head. Many use it because it's basically a new head of hair. It's useful in theatre, tv, and movies because of continuity and not wanting to damage actors' hair. Black film stars have a unique relationship with it because even though it's a protective hairstyle and does what's stated above a lot of the times they get bad wigs because stylist don't have the skills to do their hair and it's used as a pin straight fall back. Recently (Ruth Carter, my beloved) strides have been made to be better and to integrate Black actors' actual hair. (Halle will be famous always)
Tumblr media
What is a good wig?
One that you can't tell that it's a wig. Or more so it doesn't exist in an uncanny space. Basically their are different types of wigs, but lacefronts are mostly used for cinema and theatre because they have a piece of sheer lace that blends into the skin for this exact reason. Because it's extremely popular in black and queer spaces, the standards for a good wig are high.
Tumblr media
What's a bad wig?
In contrast, a bad wig, you can tell it's a wig. You can see lace, you can see the line of the lace, you can see the actors' hair underneath, or it doesn't look like real hair within the world. The within the world difference is necessary because sometimes a wig is a part of a costume or look that's meant to communicate that it's a wig. Think drag, think colourful wigs. It's an accessory for the concept of the outfit. Wigs in movies or TV can be similar, but it's never meant to take you out of the world.
Tumblr media
WHY HOTD S1 WIGS ARE BAD?
They take us out of the world. Characters like Rhaenys and Rhaena look like they're hiding dragon eggs in their hair.
Laena and Baela have open, synthetic curls for the most part, and they stop Baela’s loc journey half way through.
Jace has a helmet looking wig.
Tumblr media
The others have okay hair, but styles aren't the level of the most prosperous time in the Houses Targaryen's and Velayron's Reign.
If you don't notice it's fine and go on but when you do, like me with a love of costuming and a fan of Game of Thrones before, the intricate design of Daenerys is lost in the past and given a simpler design.
Alicent has the best wig in the show but she always looks like a Queen (episode 8 was tough). The extravagance of these houses is lost in the styling. The beauty is lost in the simplicity of characters design who in the books have extravagant wealth and nobility with a facade to match.
Hotd also falls into the "Black hair, barely care" trope with black actors. The locs were one of the best choices, but no one can deny Laenor as Jace's dad with the matching helmet wig. Laena and Baela suffer from unstyled curls and Rhaena’s hair is full of secrets (and hate crimes, hbo, I'm in your walls)
SO, IS SEASON 2 BETTER?
So far, yes. We have an established hair language in the world with season 1, but season 2 seems to take strides with the wigs and costumes, especially with the black characters so hopefully we've made it through dark times.

If only Laena was around to be redeemed.

Your posts about spiders hair, and how it could symbolize him feeling neglected throughout his life gave me the idea of what if Quarich tried to do his hair, Obviously Quarichs bad at it and doesn’t know what he’s doing but he’s actually trying, unlike everyone else who just did something to keep it put Quarich actually tries his best to give him a hairstyle to the best of his Ability
a quick note, I typed half of this post before realizing I misunderstood what you were saying, so this post is gonna have a whole bunch of stuff, cause I really like what I had even if it was a bit off-topic, so I'm leaving it.
~~~
In that post, I actually mean his hair could be a symbolization of his identity and connection to both his human and na'vi self, but I really like this idea too, so you get two answers (actually 3, heed the note).
With Quaritch, I think it would be seen less in him actually doing Spider's hair, at least at first (cause doing someone's hair is super intimate). it would start with little comments, questions, and gestures; asking how he maintains such a head of hair, why he has it styled like that, tussling it out in the field. when he finds out how badly SPider's hair has been neglected, he offers him the time, place, materials, and push to take it into his hands. he simply pays attention to it, and it gives Spider a sense of fulfillment he's never had before, and a sense of confidence.
I think as time passed and the two got closer, he'd start helping out with the boy's hair, helping him scrub it, learning to braid it and tie it up in different ways. he would push Spider to do what he wants with it, not what someone did with it a lifetime ago; and when spider finally collects the courage to start his hair over (cause when hair is matted, like white hair is, when 'locked', especially for that long, there's no bouncing back from it, it just has to be cut off) he's right behind him cause it kills Spider to do it (I'm gonna come back to this).
The way Quaritch and Spider's hair would symbolize a change from the neglect he knew, to the love and care of his father, would be that Quaritch inspires change, he pays attention to his hair, loves him, and shows it to him through small gestures.
~~~
second answers;
Spider's hair is the one tie he has to being na'vi, at least in his mind; he has no na'vi body, he has no true na'vi family (outside of the kids, but that's different), he has nothing besides the hair given to him by his adoptive father. he clings to them as some sort of proof that he belongs, much like the stripes he paints onto himself.
so as his hair begins to change, it isn't necessarily him letting go of his na'vi culture, but more the false feelings and ideas he has about what it means to be na'vi. He feels like he has to be different, he has to change, he has to be something else to be na'vi; when in reality, he just needs to be himself (he has a connection to pandora, no doubt, he was born and raised there. he has the animals and Kiri's respect, and that's how he connects to Eywa, he has to put in much more effort, but he shows her everyday how devoted he is to her, her world, and her people). Cutting off his locs, growing his hair out as he pleases, would symbolize him accepting himself as he is, no longer trying to be something he isn't.
~~~
now to finally answer your actual question (cause I'm an idiot who apparently can't read)
I think Quaritch would be like the single dad stereotype when it comes to hair. There's a sharp learning curve, cause A. he has no knowledge of hair and how to take care of it, especially curly hair like spiders B. spider is not him, he's not just gonna keep it shaven, and he most definitely will still see his hair with a lot of importance, he'll want to keep it long and will treat it with a lot of respect.
I see Spider being super protective over it, not letting Quaritch touch it at first. Quaritch keeps trying to pat his head or ruffle his hair, and Spider keeps fleeing from his touch. Then they get closer, Spider starts washing his hair more often, cause he has someone actually worrying about his hygiene, and eventually, Quaritch worms his way into that ritual, helping spider soak, scrub, rinse his hair, and that's when they really start bonding (not talking trauma bonds or the connection between father and son, like actual intimate, personal bonding). Quaritch would learn with Spider, learn different ways to style his sad, neglected locs, different ways to style his hair after he attempts to brush it out (which was mostly a failure), helps him grow it out when he eventually hacks it off. this is especially true when Quaritch realizes how deeply the neglect of Spider's hair affected him (cause to Spider, it was more than just hair, it was love and a connection, one he saw all his siblings, family, and people have. it was the one thing that 'made him na'vi', so to be neglected so horribly in that department it fucked him up), he puts twice the energy into it.
He becomes such a hair dad (grows his own out), he collects things (beads, rocks to make into beads, other hair fixtures) to braid into Spider's and his own hair, he carries whatever the na'vi equivalent of a hair tie on him at all times, and at least once a week he and his boy take a day to manage their hair. Spider prefers one long braid (he aches for a tswin/queue sue him), and Quaritch likes his braided, and they do it for each other. Quaritch brushes Spider's hair out for him almost every night, and Spider braids beads into his dad's hair. It's their thing, and only theirs; no matter how close Spider gets to anyone, no one is allowed to touch his hair like his dad does.
it heals something in spider, makes him feel whole.
~~~
feel free to ask any more questions, I have so much to add but can't quite get my thoughts out. I hope you enjoyed my response.

angrboda has such a gorgeous voice. i mean, the way she calls on jalla??? hello??? that's why in a modern AU i like to think her being a famous singer PLUS a painter. this barbie can do it all, you know! oh and atreus can be... since he's super athletic i'm stuck between an olympic gold medalist (representing norway because he's born there) or maybe in the NBA 🏀 because he's tall as fuck. also because i got reminded of the post-game interview with stephen curry and his daughter riley - so imagine atreus and little hela together and i'm soft 🥺 uwuuu
i always thought she freya and kratos had the most melodic voices in the game and i honestly wanna hear them sing a song together LOL they could be a band omggg i headcanon that angrboda would be a artist or fashion girlie and i realllly think she'd focus alot into the coquette/boho chic style the most and making people look angelic (i mean look at her shes a fairy princess) i also think her go-to hairstyle would be butterfly locs (or how laya's hair is rn which i love) and actually i didnt even think about it but atreus would probably be a sporty dude and i think the best part for him would be traveling the world 🥺 hel with him just makes him even more determined to win a game he cannot slack with his baby girl around 😂

One thing I hate is someone telling others how they can or can't create their characters. As a student of history lets go ahead and combat this "gatekeeping" of a hairstyle to a particular culture. Where did Dreadlocks or locs originate? Ancient Greece.. Crete to be exact. "Birthplace of the Minoan civilization, and in Thera (modern-day Santorini) show individuals with long braided hairstyles." Also some say in Ancient Egypt. There are depictions of Egyptians with long braided hairstyles, Mummies found with well preserved locs even in wigs. An easy search will tell you Ancient Egypt is largely considered a non-African culture. "Ancient Egyptian civilization was, in ways and to an extent usually not recognized, fundamentally African. The evidence of both language and culture reveals these African roots. The origins of Egyptian ethnicity lay in the areas south of Egypt". "Mainstream scholars reject the notion that Egypt was a white or black civilization; they maintain that applying modern notions of black or white races to ancient Egypt is anachronistic. In addition, scholars reject the notion, implicit in the notion of a black or white Egypt hypothesis, that Ancient Egypt was racially homogeneous; instead, skin color varied between the peoples of Lower Egypt, Upper Egypt, and Nubia, who in various eras rose to power in Ancient Egypt." Yes modern times shows that most examples we have are from Rastafarian's from Jamaica. There it is a religion and cultural practice not just a hairstyle. Jamaica is predominately black but not all Rastafarians are black. "The vast majority of Jamaicans are of Sub-Saharan African descent, with minorities of Europeans, East Indians, Chinese, Middle Eastern, and others of mixed ancestry.""Can only Jamaicans be Rastafarians? Everyone is a Rastafarian. The Rastafarian religion is not even the most popular religious affiliation on the island—it's actually a minority. According to the most recent census, less than one percent of the 2.7 million people living in Jamaica identify as Rastafarian." Many many cultures all over the world for centuries have worn locs. To claim it for only one culture is not right. "By culture: Locks have been worn for various reasons in each culture. Their use has also been raised in debates about cultural appropriation. Evidently, dreadlocks are seen in multiple cultures across the world."
"What's the difference between dreadlocks and locs? Major Differences A notable difference between locs and dreadlocks is that one is a hairstyle and the other is a lifestyle. Locs are cultivated, but dreadlocks aren't. Dreadlocks also often stem from Rastafarian beliefs, which use the style to separate believers from the rest of society."
"Today we see a worldwide trend of locs, which has sparked the debate on cultural appropriation, a term often misused. While it would be presumptuous to say that dreadlocks belong to one particular culture, as a quick research shows, it is certain that the cultural appropriation advocates respond in this way given the many times that hairstyles typically worn by African-Americans are seen “unprofessional” or “dirty” on them but are considered “cool” on others, whether it is worn as a political statement, due to spiritual conviction or simply as a fashion statement. If you have dreadlocks or are considering trying out this way of wearing your hair, the best thing you can do is know the reason why you are wearing them, so that the day someone asks you why you have them, you can say what they mean to you."
Something tells me you won't look at the facts even with quoting and not leaving you to do the research by yourself. So this isnt for you. This is for everyone you made upset over their character hair choices. https: //en. wikipedia.org/ wiki/Dreadlocks https: //theculturetrip.com/ europe/greece /articles/ does-the-origin-of-dreadlocks-stem-from-ancient-greece/ https: //en.wikipedia. org/wiki/ Ancient_Egyptian_ race_controversy

Haircuts For Men in Caledonia: 5 Hairstyles That Are Still Fresh In 2024
Tumblr media
Gents of Caledonia, let's talk hair. It's 2024, and while trends come and go, some styles have staying power. Whether you're looking to freshen up your look or stick with a classic, we've got you covered. Here are five hairstyles that are still turning heads in Caledonia this year.
The Modern Undercut
In male haircuts, the undercut remains a go-to for those who want a sharp, clean look. In Caledonia, barbers are putting their spin on this classic style. The key is in the contrast—short sides with length on top give you versatility. 
What Makes It Work: 
The adaptability is the major feature of the undercut. For guys dealing with thinning hair in Caledonia, it's a game-changer. By keeping the sides tight and leaving length on top, you create the illusion of fuller, thicker hair.
Styling Tip: 
Invest in a good pomade or clay. Run it through damp hair, especially on the longer top section. Use a comb for a sleek finish or your fingers for a more textured, casual vibe.
2. The Timeless Pompadour
Elvis may have made it famous, but the men's pompadour haircut is far from old news. The current take on the pompadour is all about texture and balance. It's less about the sky-high volume and more about a natural, effortless look.
Who It Suits Best: 
Guys with thick hair can really rock this style, but don't count yourself out if your hair's on the thinner side. A skilled barber, right cut, and product can do wonders for you too. The key is to tailor the height and volume to your face shape and hair type.
Maintenance Matters: 
To keep your pompadour looking fresh, you'll need to visit your barber every 4-6 weeks. At home, a round brush and blow dryer will be your best friends for creating that classic shape.
3. The Fade With a Twist
Fades are still going strong, but 2024 is all about customization. The undercut fade is having a moment in Caledonia. It's like the best of both worlds – the clean lines of an undercut with the gradual blend of a fade.
Why It's Popular: 
This style works for pretty much any hair type and face shape. Plus, it's low-maintenance, perfect for guys who don't want to spend hours on their hair every morning. The fade adds a touch of sophistication to the edgy undercut, making it suitable for both work and play.
Barber's Advice: 
When asking for this cut, be specific about how high you want the fade and how dramatic you want the contrast. A good barber will consider your head shape and hairline to create a fade that complements your features.
4. Dreadlocks Reimagined
Dreadlocks have been around for ages literally), but they're far from boring. Caledonia's barbers are getting creative with locs, offering fresh takes on this classic style. From undercut dreads to tapered styles, there's a lot you can do.
Trend Alert: 
One of the hottest looks in Caledonia right now is the loc fade. It combines the appeal of dreadlocks with the edge of a fade, creating a striking contrast. 
Care Tip: 
The best dreadlock haircuts in Caledonia aren't just about the initial style – they're about maintenance too. Regular retwisting and moisturizing are key to keeping your locs looking fresh and healthy.
5. The Textured Crop
Last but not least, let's talk about the textured crop. This style is perfect for guys who want a low-fuss, high-impact look. It's short on the sides and back, with just enough length on top to add some texture.
Versatility is Key: 
It works well for all hair types, but it's especially great for guys with wavy or curly hair. In Caledonia, barbers are pairing this cut with subtle fades for a clean, modern look. The best part is that it looks just as good fresh out of bed as it does when styled for a night out.
Styling Tip: 
To enhance the texture, work a small amount of matte clay or sea salt spray through dry hair. Use your fingers to create a definition for an effortlessly cool vibe.
Remember, a great haircut is more than just following trends. It's about feeling confident and looking your best. So whether you're going for a classic undercut or trying out something new, wear it with pride. 
So there you have it, gents. Five hairstyles that are still fresh in 2024. Which one will you be trying out on your next visit to the barber? Don't be afraid to experiment – your perfect style might be just a snip away!

Unlocking the Beauty of Brazilian Human Hair and Crochet Hairstyles: Butterfly Locs and Faux Locs
When it comes to achieving stunning, versatile, and natural-looking hairstyles, the quality of hair and the technique you use are paramount. If you're looking to turn heads and embrace the latest trends, consider Brazilian Human Hair, Butterfly Locs Crochet, and Faux Locs Crochet Hair. In this blog post, we'll dive into these three exciting elements of hair fashion and guide you on how to rock them with confidence.
Brazilian Human Hair: The Essence of Luxurious Locks
Brazilian Human Hair is celebrated for its luscious quality and natural appearance. The key to its allure lies in its origin. Brazilian hair is sourced from donors in Brazil, and it's known for its softness, thickness, and its ability to blend seamlessly with various hair types. The hair is untreated, ensuring that you can style it as you desire – from straight to curly and everything in between.
One of the standout features of Brazilian Human Hair is its durability. With proper care, it can last for a significant period, making it a valuable investment for those looking for long-term beauty. This type of hair is often available in various textures, such as body wave, deep wave, and straight, allowing you to achieve different looks effortlessly.
Whether you're looking to add volume, length, or simply enhance your overall appearance, Brazilian Human Hair can help you achieve the hair of your dreams.
Butterfly Locs Crochet: A Trendsetting Twist
Butterfly Locs Crochet is a unique and trendy hairstyle that combines the beauty of butterfly locs with the convenience of crochet braids. This style features thin, wispy locs that are created by wrapping and looping hair extensions around your natural hair. The result is a stunning, bohemian look with a playful and airy feel.
What sets Butterfly Locs Crochet apart is the minimal stress it places on your natural hair. The crochet technique ensures that your hair is protected while you enjoy the benefits of a full, luxurious hairstyle. It's a perfect option for those looking to experiment with a different look without the commitment of permanent locs.
The versatility of this style allows you to add accessories, beads, or color to match your unique personality and preferences. You can keep it natural and earthy or go bold with vibrant accents – the choice is yours!
Faux Locs Crochet Hair: A Marvel of Creativity
Faux Locs Crochet Hair is a popular choice for those who desire the look of traditional dreadlocks without the long-term commitment. These locs are created by crocheting extensions into your natural hair, giving you a similar appearance to real dreadlocks. The main advantage is that Faux Locs Crochet Hair is versatile, adjustable, and much faster to install compared to traditional locs.
Faux Locs offer endless possibilities for styling. You can wear them long or short, and you have the freedom to experiment with different colors and textures. Whether you prefer thin or thick locs, or even a combination of both, you can achieve the look that best suits your style.
Additionally, the lightweight nature of crochet locs reduces tension on your scalp and prevents hair breakage. This makes them a fantastic protective style that promotes healthy hair growth.
In conclusion, Brazilian Human Hair, Butterfly Locs Crochet, and Faux Locs Crochet Hair are three elements that can help you achieve your dream hairstyle. When combined, these components unlock a world of versatility, creativity, and natural beauty. Whether you're looking for a new look for a special occasion or considering a long-term style change, these options offer both convenience and elegance. So, go ahead, explore your options, and embrace the beauty of Brazilian hair and crochet hairstyles today!
