A shitpost but not rly, confession: I always wondered how Tōsen got his hair done. Thought it’d be funny if he had the whole squad getting him fresh once he’s feeling a new style.😭
Like ik he very well could’ve just done it himself, given the absurd amount of time they seem to have, but idk I feel like the show does a pretty good job of establishing his blindness so for some reason it just doesn’t click to me that he would go out of his way to do it himself or even have a similar concept of his appearance compared to the others around him.
Like, yes he’d have to have some upkeep with it just bc of the texture but it always made me pause when he would pull up with a new look, lmao. Ik literally every other character shows up looking brand new every once in a while bc of the time skips and their ages but every time id just sit there like🤨🤔trying to rack my brain on how long it took Shuuhei or basically anyone else in their squad to step up and help him with a fresh set of braids. He had twists I’m pretty sure at some point, and those would be easy enough for him to do on his own, BUT HIS BRAIDS DURING THE AIZEN ARC??!?!?
WHO TF IN LAS NOCHES BECAME HIS STYLIST BC HE WAS FRESH AF😭😭😭😭😫🎀 ik it wasn’t ANY of the espada bc them mfs too petty for anything 💀I rly wanna draw a couple of extras to this bc was AIZEN HIMSELF laying his edges down or did they just have some randos do it for him.
Anyways. I tried drawing him in a variation of styles, this shit was hard bro. I rly tried to have him with locs and chains attached to them but I’m not sure if they’re that noticeable or even translated well. Also I loved the idea of Shuuhei being the one tasked with his hair and partially his fits, and since he is his right hand man within the squad a lot of things would naturally fall on him.
Omg guys no bc I love that Tosen has the orange motif, he was already dripped out 24/7 but the signature color?!?! He knew he was badddddd🙏🏽😫🥀
