So.... I know that cutting hair is like Bad tm for elves and has a bunch of connotations that go with it; does that mean that bangs are an alt hairstyle for elves?

Give me punk elves with curtain bangs that your vanyaran grandmas gossip about at their weaving circles!

Some hairy thoughts:

I always get asks or comments talking about how people love my defense of movie Elrond’s hairline or that I am the bravest soldier for it, and I need to make one thing clear.

I am not a defender of movie Elrond’s hairline. I am an enjoyer of it.

I am feral for that hairline. I genuinely think a good widow’s peak is sexy. More forehead to lick. More brains to overthink hand in hand with. He can still look like Lúthien no matter what hairline he has, because Lúthien was a woman so unlikely to develop male pattern baldness.

I am not the bravest soldier on the final frontier of that hairstyle out of noble aspirations or loyalty, nor patriotism. I am not even a crusader for my king, because frankly I don’t like action franchises, have never seen Hugo Weaving in anything except the Matrix and Priscilla, and do not plan to. I am doing this for purely selfish reasons. I love that little V-forehead. A constant, unchanging arrow, a tether to my motivations, a constant reminder of a place I deeply wish to explore.

Also, I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, if I personally lived six thousand years of a life like Elrond’s, forget male pattern baldness, the first thing Frodo sees upon waking up in Imladris would look like this:

I recently noticed how all the male Imladris elves in the films wear their circlets really low compared to the other ones and yes, yes, different regional fashions but have chosen to read it as a beautiful gesture of solidarity with their lord. The lower it gets, the hotter you think Elrond is. That’s why Lindir’s one is basically halfway down his forehead even though he has a perfectly normal hairline.

I understand, Lindir. I would do the same. I would do it better than you. I would wear it around my pussy.

Maedhros: am I straight?

Fingon: no.

Maedhros: ...how about my parking?

Fingon: yeah that looks pretty good.

LEGOLAS & ARAGORN

discovered embroidery brush and, true to character, went overboard with it. a little practice in my illustration style, enjoy a trashy novel cover, either BL or buddy-cop depending on your interpretation, featuring the most annoying duo to ever exist. i know the elves of imladris wanted to lock them in a room and throw away the key, i know it!
