Eyyyyy you’re comment brought me life
That is so true. Butt/knee length hair is so overrated because the upkeep is hell!
Hehe, I am considering where exactly I want my hair but I am seeing where it stops. I had a hairdresser once tell me her hair never grew past her shoulder blades. If my hair hits the ground, I'm gonna call it good.
I certainly enjoy it being around my hip area. After it hits there, the way you brush it stays about the same the farther you go down: pulled to the side and holding the ends up so you can start brushing there first.
For Maize, another issue is that it's always down. It's like authors don't remember hair tangles. And if she is supposed to be European (not Nordic,) she will have fine hair, which is even worse. "It's fantasy" yeah, well, it makes for some unrealistic standards when all these isekai have people going from thick, coarse hair to fine, thin strands.
With how long her hair is, she shouldn't be washing it everyday; it causes more breakage. Plus, the drying time and conditioning care would take up a good chunk of her day.
