I am so, so, SO very tired of artists drawing a FL with long hair and just. Doing nothing with it. It's down ALL THE TIME. They do NOTHING with it. They're going to a ball or fancy party? Down, with barely anything done to it.
Have you SEEN pictures of women from these time periods? The reason they had such elaborate hair styles is BECAUSE the majority had such long hair. There's pictures of women with hair down almost to their ankles and in the next set, they have the most beautiful, elaborate hair styles.
I get it, it's harder to draw a hair style than hair down but every time I see it, it just looks tacky to me. Especially if other background characters have various hair styles and the FL is the only one with tacky hair down, barely anything done to it. It's a nothing little nitpick but it bugs me every time.
