ok, (this might be long so bear with me here i’m sorry) i got the very bright idea to try and braid my hair last night since i’ve been letting my mullet grow longer than usual, i’m too lazy to cut it but also i kinda want to see how long i can let it grow anyways, that shit was hard. i spent more time than i even want to think about trying to do a dutch braid up the back of my head and then i still had to do the top half to meet back it was a serious test in my patience, dexterity, and (most importantly) arm strength. i almost forgot just how difficult it can be to braid your own hair, and it’s just so much worse when you can barely hold onto it

but now, all i can think about is little mullet boba (maybe just as he’s growing his hair out to the length it is later on? idk, but the point is it’s not super long) trying to figure out how he’s gonna fit it under his helmet since now it’s too long to just leave alone and so i’m just picturing little boba sitting there trying (and mostly failing) to braid his mullet up, while fennec just watches on in amusement because “no fennec, i don’t want or need help” (i like to think there’s an unholy amount of bobby-pins and maybe a few sparkly clips involved to keep it all together those first few times) or maybe, alternatively, boba realises just how hard it is and agrees to let fennec braid his hair instead until it’s long enough for him to do it with less struggle. either way, the mental image of baby mullet boba trying to figure out his braids has been haunting me all day and i needed to share

first off can i just say my favorite asks are when people with mullets come here to tell me about them lmfao <3 it feels like such a specific corner of the internet i’ve accidentally cultivated considering i don’t actually have a mullet myself!! but i do have very long hair rn so i completely feel you on the braiding lol

 (also i saw your follow up and you’re right, reqs aren’t open rn, but i was already on this train of thought and am always in the mulletverse mood lol so enjoy some rougher sketches and some context lmfao)

and yes!! it is absolutely my hc that fennec teaches him (idk how long you’ve been here but my thoughts here are an extension of the baby fennec as zam wesell’s protégée verse that i played around with a while back) and boba is allergic to asking for help so it’s a whole thing and fennec teases him relentlessly about his first few attempts...

the other thing i’ve been thinking about re: helmet braids is fennec’s threading...i’m not sure what the costumers were inspired by for it but i personally was reminded of hair tapes like this (painting is from 1586, unknown artist):

i imagine that added structure would be really helpful with layered hairstyles like boba’s mullet lmfao...

anyway from there i got into the idea of fennec teaching boba how to do these hair tape styles to keep the helmet hair to a bit more manageable level lol

(and here are some rough sketches of how that could look (one based on fennec’s, one based on an alternate padmé costume i drew a while back)
