Female hairstyles are too shourt,modern and unfeminine

[Germania516]

I am a girl with blonde hair to my ankles, I love super long hair,and think my hair is beautiful,and super feminine,and I love to roleplay,and play myself on RP games,but I can't on Bannerlord because the hairstyles are not beautiful,too modern,and not super long. I am not telling this community or devs what to do, but I would think a beautiful princess,or a valiant girl that fights in battle would be beautiful with beautiful long hair. Having super long hair feels powerful,and extra feminine,and there is nothing more beautiful than a beautiful girl after battle removing her helmet,and her golden hair tumbles down for all the men to swoon over,plus she saved her nation,and faction. Are there any plans for implementing more hairstyles,and longer hair ? I mean even if there are buns we can use our imagination that the hair is super long. The only good hairstyle on bannerlord is the updo but still the hair looks shourt because there is no stack of buns. Super long hair was in style during the middles ages especially to the noble women. Ever see a Frank girl with braids that went to her feet wrapped in silk lace ? Ever see a viking girl with ankles length hair in a "Valkyrie Knot"? Why not implement beauty,and celebrate it ? I would love to purchase this game but the hairstyles don't appeal to me to spend the money.

Very good idea u got there pretty intresting i must say that i dont like to see that much women on battlefield beacouse too much inaccuricy historical but definetly would like to see more beutiful Ladys with long hair nice pointing that out

Yes super long hair is definately enchanting,and I will continue to point this out because this is the era of super long hair which the hairstyles on this game belong more on Ark. Yes there were more men on the battlefield heh It also depended on the culture where norse women were equal to men so they fought also.

Right would really much like to see Ladys with longer hair more beauty and more styler but for that i would also like to reduce female char in this game and to make more quality than quantity for the hair part u are absolutly right :D

Why buy the game when you don't like the hairstyles ? lol Do you have preferences in life ? Are you satisfied with everything ? Do you just buy something because people think it is cool ? I never said I was going to buy the game but I will give the devs ideas to make the character creation,and experience more fun. Are you playing this game to test it out for the devs so you can give ideas or point out bugs so the devs can fix it ? This game is no way near release so you are doing the same thing I am doing as in testing it out.

I agree. Then again I haven't played in in 1 year... the last time I did play I felt like every character I created looked like a Turkish man who might own a used car dealership or a pawn shop in the Bronx.

That said on hair length its genetics. This is for those question hair length, its same for men and even male beards. Your beard will only grow so far and some can grow a beard below their waist and some to only their chest.

Long hair in combat is detrimental, just imagine yourself chopping your hair short before combat, and you'll be fine. At least you have the option to do it. Quit expecting devs to cater to long hair princesses, if you were a true warrior you would not have ankle length locks. Don't believe everything you see on the show Vikings.
If I saw your long locks and we were battling, you can bet your ass I would swing your around by your hair and make you scream in pain. Game over.

I am a black belt with ankle length hair,and I do fine in sparring because I wear my hair up. No one in their right mind would cut their ankle length hair shourt lol You know how long that takes to grow ? I didn't even watch my hair grow very long because my moder started growing my hair from birth,and now I am 22 with the longest hair that would be a sin to just chop it off. No I will not stop expecting devs to stop catering to long hair princesses. Just because war and battle is ugly it doesn't mean the fighters have to be also. There is no ankle length hair on the "Vikings",and besides they all wear extensions lol Yes viking women as shield maidens wore their hair as long as they can grow it. My ancestours cared about grooming,and looking great in battle or outside battle. So you are telling me the women can't have long hair in battle but the men can have the longest beards,and flowing hair ? If very long hair was required on a woman regardless of the situation than shield maidens fought with super long hair. Most women wanted to be like Frejya,and Sif,and saw them as rolemodels. So if super long hair was appreciated than women wore super long hair as vikings. You can contain ankle length hair by wearing two braided buns. Yes a true warriour can have ankle length locks because hair does give one power,and confidence. You don't just wear your hair shourt because you are a warriour.

Yes some women get cheated in how long their hair can grow. I have a friend that grew her hair to her knees,and it eventually stopped growing. It's not like i am special or should get a gold medal because I am achieve a length not everyone can lol I have good genetics,I trim my hair,and it just grew lol Nothing to it. I did have my hair dragging the floor during the pandemic because I didn't have time to get my hair trimmed lol I did learn that with my genetics my hair keeps growing. I don't know when I will reach terminal length but from what I see I think I can achieve floor length hair lol I don't think I will ever grow my hair where it drags the ground because I love wearing my hair down,and if my hair gets that length I will have to wear it up all the time which is boring. So when Bannerlord came out there was only one choice of characters to choose ? That probably sucked lol

[So Icy]

I love girls with long hair and I loved reading your OP bb.

[Black Jack]

most of the time i played all the females have nothing but short hair

[flyingscot1066]

What would be an interesting feature would be to have separate hair styles for the martial and civilian outfits, so you COULD have your long hair down and flowing while not in armor, but up in a bun , braid, cornrows, etc for combat.

You must not get out of your house much if you don't believe we can grow our hair to our ankles.

No, I didn't say it couldn't be done, I said I doubt you. And, I do not believe that even if you did grow it that long that you'd wear it like that all the time.

Also not every girl can grow their hair very long because of her genetics where my moder,and sisters also have very long hair like I do.

Genetics... Okiedokie.

So here is a lesson to your nay saying comment,if you have good genetics,you eat healthy,and you follow the long hair rules you definately can have hair to your ankles. All you do is be patient,and sit back,and let your hairs grow but also you want to trim your split ends,and use non silicon shampoo so your hair grows fast and healthy. Lifestyles ? Oh you are one of those "modern" yuppies that think your "career" is way too impourtant to care for super long hair ? I know your kind that thinks you are too active for having super long hair ? Also how do you know my super long hair doesn't go with my lifestyle ? I am a music teacher that teaches the Norwegian Hardanger fiddle so I don't have to sit in a board meeting wearing my hair up in a bun,with a power suit on being a snob to all the men that sits besides me. Also I am only 22 years old,and I don't have to take children to school in my "soccer moder van",and act like a Karen if I don't get my way lol I don't do any manual labour unless I am growing my fresh vegetables or fruits in my garden. I am not a fly by night that is in a hurry where I work on my own schedule,and still make a great living. I am not a selfish,and yuppie modern woman that is only here to make money lol You right away assume my lifestyle,and I will tell you this having super long hair is easier to take care of than some trendy,and modern style because all I do is wash and go. The only hard part is drying it where I dry it naturally,and refuse to use heat. Yes women can have their hair to their ankles if you want it,and can grow it lol

So... You insist that a medieval warrior-woman is going to wear her ankle-length hair down into battle, but you're lucky because you can wear your ankle-length hair because you don't live a very physically active lifestyle?

i don't care about your hair.

Not even a little bit.

This is Bannerlord. if you want ankle-length-hair-sprouting-barbarian-Valkyries, get it from a mod.


This is nearly a whole thread about you talking about your hair. Which, sorry, I just don't believe. But, I don't really care enough to care about what kind of hair you have or if you've just picked the most ridiculous thing to complain about in Bannerlord since the sheep fiasco just for the lulz...

She did make good point but u also make good point for hair, o think in a civilian outfit women need have longer hair and in battle they need to make hairstyle on short, yet again in myb 1 out of 10 battle to have long hairstyle tho that is not gonna happen in milion years my opinion

[the.lovewyrm]

It's the battle part that's unrealistic, not the hair.
Shieldmaidens yeah yeah but Germanic people worshiped fertility, pregnancy and the ancestral relay race of old generations carrying into new generations.

From what I've heard, 'lucky 13' is lucky because some ancient Swedish calender (of all things, since OP is apparently Swedish), that was based on menstrual, or lunar cycles or something, forgot the deetz, but the main point was fertility in women and 13 was sort ofthe middle point of it all because fertility was highest, or something.

Not sure how true that is, though.

That said, Irminsul as well as the Odin figure itself are both clearly tied to those things.
With Irminsul being a stylized vaginal canal + womb and stylized ovaries on top, and Odin being a growing human fetus.

You know, hanging upside down, for 9 nights (months), from the world tree/tree of life (placenta, ever looked at one that's drained of blood? yeah, it looks like a tree actually)
pierced by a spear (guess what that is) sacrificed to himself by himself (DNA, Sperm ) and has ravens for memory and thought, etc.

What I'm getting at is:
Why would anyone send the respawn point into battle and be happy about it?
One woman can only make, on average, one child per year, no matter how many storks poke her.
But one man can go around showing the stork where to go pretty much anywhere that has a place to roost.

So to replenish a people, more women rather than less women are needed, the only way to speed up replenishment is by having more women, not less.
And that's worth more than sending one more body into battle, at least IRL. Even if the world is so populated now that it might seem superfluous.

But if we are talking about 'femininity' then being treated like a man is not exactly conductive to that.
They're not the same, so treating them the same is not catering to the specialness of women.
A woman can do pretty much everything a man can do, yes.
But a man cannot do everything a woman can do. Maybe if they keep messing around with 'modern medicine' they one day will be able to, but that point is not yet there, not reliably.

Women can do the most important thing, more important than anything else. That which enables people who want to claim otherwise the ability to do so.
Continue the damn human race. Can't even deny it wihtout some woman having done it to you before . Or you wouldn't be here to deny it.

Edit: And yeah obviously they need a man for that too, but I'd wager that men have the easier part in the creation process here.

[SpaceDink]

this thread is weird. i like women with long hair and having an option for that in this game would be nice. also tl;dr on most of OP's posts because the lack of structuring was too bothersome
