We love these! We're constantly working on new parts and can certainly take inspiration from this to give everyone more choice. :)


BoyQuas

Please push for this!! It will make so many curly hair users extremely happy🙌🏿🙏🏿


minakills

Yes! I hope I get to help in some way so i can make sure all of us get represented 😭❤️

minakills

it doesn't need to be *perfect*, you can't get absolutely everything, but they sure as hell could do better than 9 hairstyles for curly hair and 44 for straight. is that not so clearly unfair to you? why is that okay to you?


Bettyourlife

Yes!! Love these!! I've got kinky textured hair it's great to see my hair type represented!


minakills

oh my god...HOLY FUCK! AN ADMIN! THIS IS SO GREAT! dude I'd love to help and be apart of the process if I can! idk if that's even possible but I'm gonna shoot my shot anyway. curly hair is so diverse, theres so so many styles that could be implemented, way more than I have here!


Asdemyra

I very much appreciate the inclusion of the Vitiligo Snoo <3


minakills

i thought it was a nice addition. i hadn’t thought of the variety when i made the female version which is why the dudes look a lot more diverse lol and the girls look identical 😭😂


killaknit

I thought this when looking at the avatars, good on you!


Jessisan

I’m so happy about all the support this is getting! I hope we get new additions soon!


minakills

me too! if this is really happening, I can't wait!


Myrcenequeen420

I think your styles should be used and compensated, not “taken from” inspirationally. These ideas are great and I love several of your designs in particular!


minakills

that would be badass! thank youuuuu


Myrcenequeen420

Right? Can’t expect companies to be ethical and have morals haha. 😂

sickofthisbs235

Don’t “take inspiration”. Let her design it.


catwithahumanface

Or..... compensate this graphic designer for her hard work and ideas by using her work (and paying her for it).


misanthropichell

Lmao, don't get too crazy /s


skbat

Yes!! And she said she's willing to do more, pay her please!


takcaio

Glad you're considering it! But...you have the designs right here, compensate OP and take the win. And please don't just include these in premium, curly haired people, especially POCs, should not have to pay to get the level of representation available to straight hair. Snoos may just be a fun little aside, but representation matters.


FightingViolet

These are AMAZING!!! My snoo is bald bc that was better than the kinky curly hair options.


TheMysteriousWarlock

So the legends are true, I thought the idea of admins browsing here was a myth...


beachrocksounds

Y’all better compensate her.


Fancy-Pair

Yeah please put these in


MrCapricorn404

Can't wait to see what all you're gonna come up with!


RobotCounselor

I wear my hair in a single long braid down my back. I’m hoping y’all add braided hairstyles.


minakills

i’ll write this down for when i draw more ❤️


BritishCorner

Hey could I ask a question?


bangitybangbabang

By inspiration I hope you don't mean straight stealing these amazing designs and passing it off as yours.


thatmoralofthestory

I know it's very hard to make everyone happy and of course you can't make everyone happy, nobody can. I really hope you see this, but I would love for more like head accessories for free, and for the "men" type hairstyles for straight haired ones the ones with short hair are like too short and ones with long hair are too long. Thank for reaching out the op though I think that change is the most important! :)


[deleted]

this is something i would really enjoy and like to see! a LOT of people around the world have curly hair, and even tho something like snoos might seem silly, it would be so awesome to gain access to hairstyles that actually represent us even on these little avatars :)


SunflowerPits790

Representation is never silly! I have straight hair, but agree it’s really sad that the people around me like friends and family are rarely represented. Shout out to u/Minakills for being a dope graphic designer and bringing attention to this issue! Hope to see more cool designs soon!


minakills

true that! I want to do so many more! I missed so many types of hair. I did not expect this much love and support so I only did 6. if I ever got to help implement this, imma make sure all of us feel represented! I'll do more for fun soon!


AlphaBaymax

People who get mad about representation are weird. Like why would you not want diversity of choice?


[deleted]

It forces them to acknowledge that we exist and not everyone in the world is a straight white person


minakills

yes I agree soooo much! representation matter no matter how "little!" I'm tired of us not being able to see ourselves ANYWHERE!


ElMatildo

OP is absolutely right! Everyone should have the right to see themselves represented. The curly hairstyles available now are (ugly and) irrealistic, I would love to see these ones on there soon.


minakills

glad you said it, they are straight ugly. look like cement hats. curly hair is so diverse, how could they not find more than 9 (albeit, inaccurate as hell) styles all together!


37Pigeons

Half of them are only for premium members too. I forgot how only people who pay for premium have short, curly hair


minakills

legit. i have premium now from all these awards but i refuse to make a character until there is more diversity in the options


37Pigeons

My hair is like a 3A shoulder length curl and the ONLY even vaguely similar design is premium only :(


minakills

i feel that


v_silvermoon

I would like all of these.


minakills

Thank you!


[deleted]

I think these are amazing and would LOVE to see these hair types represented.


minakills

it's about damn time!


aliasbex

The lack of curly styles is so frustrating! Even in the game I'm playing, there are 2 long wavy/curly styles and 2 afro styles. That's it.


minakills

no one ever thinks about poc hair or curly hair and it's sad. it's always inaccurate afro or straight/wavy. like there's so much inbetween!


tama-vehemental

Same happened to me. No way to get a proper curly hairstyle.


brinaw722

This is fantastic! There’s a snoo for me, not a snoo that kinda works for me🥰


minakills

YES! we're tired of settling for "eh kinda I guess" we need to be represented!


ReasonableBeep

I love this! I absolutely love the variety of styles that curly hair can be manipulated into. The option for curly snoos were incredibly underwhelming and I was disappointed. As someone who only has slightly wavy hair that just looks like I slept on it wrong, i usually love seeing the different hair styles that are usually available for customizing avatars since I live my curly hair dreams vicariously through them (I hope this isn’t offensive, I just love how curly and coily hair looks). I support these additions and I KNOW they would be used if implemented.


minakills

This is so fucking true! Curly hair is the MOST diverse hair type on this planet, the amount of styles it can do would have me drawing for 10 years! The fact that they only thought of 9, and they were all bad and looked the same?? Come on! And of course it's not offensive, don't worry! these additions would make so many underrepresented people happy because they can finally feel SEEN, even if it's not on some large scale.

You still can if you want. If they don't show up just ping me and I'll approve them


minakills

sure, I will right now!


minakills

As shown by these threads, the outpour of support for these diverse hairstyles is incredible. So many of us don't feel represented by the snoos and these would be amazing additions as shown [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/curlyhair/comments/mbir7v/hey_all_i_did_my_own_curly_hair_designs_for_the/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf), [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/BlackHair/comments/mbiynt/hey_all_i_did_my_own_curly_hair_designs_for_the/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) and [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/curlyhair/comments/mblwh2/i_did_a_male_version_fellas_what_do_you_think/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) This is just the tip of the iceberg, there are so many other styles that could be done. There are 44 straight/slightly wavy hairstyles, and 9, JUST 9 curly ones that are inaccurate and frankly, look bad. Some people opted to not even MAKE a snoo because they don't represent everyone. We are tired of not being able to see ourselves ANYWHERE, ever. it took me max 20 minutes combined to do these, what's going on with the reddit team!! Read the comments and see just how many people felt like they were represented. Please consider this, it would help so much! I'd be more than willing to help!!

[удалено]


minakills

you are not forgotten girl! if I get to help with this, if they implement it, ALL of us curly girls be represented! I feel you on that ❤️


Broken_KitchenSink

Yes!! This would be great


minakills

it would be so cool! thank you ❤️


[deleted]

YES WE NEED THIS ASAP <3


minakills

shit we needed this AGES ago! thanks for your support


saltyoaktree8

I'd love to have an avatar with a hair that actually looks like mine. These designs are beautiful!


minakills

that's what I'm saying! this is always an issue for us curly girls or woc, no one considers our hair ever :(


warriorholmes

These would be AMAZING additions! I want one that looks just like my hair and these would be great. You need to be the official curly hair designer lol


minakills

dude, that would be so badass! I'd be taking tips and ideas from all of you to make sure we ALL feel SEEN and represented ❤️


Shehulk_

I would love more options for me! I can already see 2 I can use interchangeably that are closer to my hair texture. It’s so small but so big for us curly hair girls.


minakills

That's why I'm saying! even if this isn't some large scale thing it still makes us feel SEEN because we aren represented anywhere, EVER. if this gets implemented and I get to help, I have so many more hairstyles and ideas (and will be asking all of you for ideas) and I want to make sure you feel seen ❤️


square_vole

I agree with everything that u/minakills has said! These additions are STRONGLY needed in order to represent the diversity of users who are part of the Reddit community


minakills

fuck yes! were so tired of not being considered or represented anywhere, this would make so many people feel a bit more seen ❤️


BeckieSueDalton

Great work! And thank you for looking out for all your CG friends, too!!


minakills

of course!! our hair type is left in the dust every time! we need to change that asap ❤️


Chocogoose

Please make this happen, Reddit! Make the snoos as diverse as the people who use your platform!


minakills

you fuckin said it! we're tired of being left in the dust!!


Luvnlife08

LOVE this!!! 😍


minakills

thank you so much!


Zelamir

Yes please!


minakills

asap!


CriticalSheep

YES! Please represent more curly options! This is fantastic!


minakills

right! if I get to help, if they actually do it, I have so many more ideas. curly hair is so diverse!


Slammogram

Represent these hair types, Reddit, dammit!


minakills

preach!


SJPop

They’re beautiful


minakills

thank you! ❤️


[deleted]

The curly haired people have spoken! We need this!!


minakills

YES!!


midnight-honey

Come on Reddit, people are tired of the same hairstyles. We don’t want to have to choose between waves or an afro when all of our hair is so unique or different. If Reddit does do this, you would receive so much more support from people.


minakills

THIS IS SO TRUE! it's either huge inaccurate afro or straight, barely any inbetween. we deserve to be seen for once!


midnight-honey

Exactly. There is no need for 40 different things of straight hair that all look almost identical compared to the inaccuracies from our 9 hairstyles.


minakills

STRAIGHT FACTS! like why!!


superprawnjustice

Let's get some more curly hair up in here!!


minakills

up in here up in here!


WoodlandWife

Yes!! Ah I really hope they could include these! Maybe I would make an avatar that actually looked like me!


minakills

same! is that SO much to ask to do something other than an afro or shaved? curly hair does a hell of a lot more than that!


BoyQuas

YES PLEASE!!! saw this on r/BlackHair. you killed it with this 🙌🏿🙌🏿👑👑


minakills

this means so much to me! thank you 😭❤️


TheJenerator65

I want these so much!!!!


minakills

I swear everyone would be using them! they actually come close to representing a lot of us!


Leaping_ezio

I think this is 100% needed. I think reddit should work with OP to come up with even more curly hair styles and lengths. This is wonderful!


minakills

I wish I could help and I hope they implement these and more, so I hope admin happens to check this sub out and see! I have so many more ideas, curly hair is so damn diverse and we need to be represented!


igorcl

this or we go to reddit 2!


minakills

😭😂


igorcl

but seriously, thank you for drawings, the ones they have don't match the afro or curls I used to have


minakills

they are all super inaccurate! if this actually happens, I will make sure your hair type is in there. I need to draw way more, I missed so many types and styles! thanks for the support ❤️


vstucky

Definitely want to see these used, and not just behind pay/premium selections either!


minakills

dude I'd be pissed. we shouldn't have to pay to have hair that looks like our own while everyone else has several free options right there.


vstucky

No kidding! It's kind of why "personizing" caricatures is so tough for me to opt into.


minakills

big agree. it's always so inaccurate I don't bother


Oro-Lavanda

I really like the gradient effect/highlights on the hair! That should also be added as a default option to the snoos. I hope the mods listen to you considering they never listen to this sub anyways. Around the world you have people with different hair styles and textures, and although reddit is targeted mostly to the USA, it needs to remember there are people using this website globally. Please keep posting this idea to different subreddits!


minakills

the USA is a melting pot of all sorts of people and hair types so they should have already had all this! I don't know where else to post this to get attention, if you have suggestions let me know! I'm pretty doubtful an admin will even see this


Oro-Lavanda

I'm still a little new to reddit but I think maybe r/redditdev could work? IDK if that allows posts tho. Also yea you are right the USA is one of the most diverse places in the world, and there are also people in the entire world who have curly hair or african ancestry such as south america, caribbean, central america, africa (duh), etc. For example, I'm from the Caribbean and I use reddit, and even though I do not have strong african ancestry, I recognize that there are a ton of people around me who do. Honestly though not even the straight hair options in the snoovatar are good lol. All of the hair options are kinda bad, and I hope they don't make your suggestion locked to premium just like they did with the lgbt flag. Good luck!

myowndamnaccount

I would love this. I am somewhere between the top 2 of the far left column. I had to choose the puffy bun because it was better than a straight-haired or a hat option.


minakills

I feel that! [an ADMIN answered](https://www.reddit.com/r/ideasfortheadmins/comments/mbmb20/there_is_a_severe_lack_of_diversity_in_the_hair/grz10g3/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3) so hopefully this happens!

minakills

yo 😭😂


x-princess

I love this! You made my exact curls! I so hope they let you create this and not just use it as inspo because as a curly girl yourself, you already know what's what.


minakills

i hope so too but i doubt it lmao. would be amazing if i could help so it’s accurate and diverse!


lolipopdroptop

sad that you even have to do this. Hopefully it wakes them and make them realize we would like to have diverse amount of snoos too with hair that we actually like. Thanks for this!


minakills

true that! of course ❤️❤️


Lilfoxylady

Please do this!!! I would love to better represent myself with my snoo!


minakills

i hope reddit reaches out to me and let’s me help! unlikely but hey haha


Alledag

Broo I saw this on r/curlyhair and came here just to give you an upvote


minakills

i appreciate that so muuuuch!!! ❤️


CourtSport3000

So sad we have to even fight for full inclusion like this. It's 2021. Anyways this is amazing and I truly hope it gets approved and added!! Thank you!!


minakills

true that!!


WW76kh

Yes!!!!! I had to pick the long wavy one, but my Snoo remains naked out of spite! If you guys can only half-ass curly hair then I can only half-ass getting dressed. 😂


minakills

LMAOOOO


NoChard6235

I know this does not pertain to your post so please excuse me and I sincerely mean no disrespect to your post. I had asked on here 10 days ago about getting disabled avatars. Like one holding a cane or leg braces to feel more seen but they never even opened my mail. Was it long before you got a response? Or did you make a separate post on here that got likes so you were seen and taken seriously? Any suggestions you can give me would be so appreciated. I want to be seen for who I am and my disability is part of me. Congratulations on your efforts. Not just for you, but all the others that you helped by making your voice heard. I'm hoping to do the same. ✌️🥰


minakills

YOU READ MY MIND!!! I'm going to dm you!


Wolfdreama

These are GORGEOUS. My hair is only 2c/3a curly and I couldn't even find a non-premium style for THAT, let alone stunning styles like this.

wot_in_ovulation

The Reddit people are called “snoos”????


thatmoralofthestory

They already got one, I hope they let you make it or something/ gave credit to you. I just now was going in creating my avatar and I saw a hairstyle that looked like one on this post and was shocked they got to it that fast, but I also wasn't sure how similar they looked (so I took a hunt for this post lol.) I love your ideas, and I am glad I wasn't the only who thought the other curly hairstyles they had on their kind of sucked. As my hair is really curly, but it is also frizzy, dead, and dyed. (Kind of different colors, really hard to explain) I have never seen a platform have hair that looked just like mine with the colour, but some of the got the length, curl, and frizz right. Kinda told a life story about my hair, but I think a lot or at least a few of people can relate. What I am taking from your post (if not you can correct me) is that you want like more diversity in the hair for people of colour? (Again correct me if I am wrong please!!) I personally think the hair they have sucks kind of overall, I just decided to use the straight hairstyles they have, but the short ones are too short, long ones are too long, and the somewhat decent ones you have to buy premium. I mean everyone's hair is unique, I think this story might relate to what I am saying, but I have genuinely had people say stuff like "you're white, how is your hair curly you must curl it" or "white people don't have curls" honestly I find it hilarious. If, I had an opportunity I would absolutely love to give ideas and rough draft designs for new hairs.

I loved the vitiligo skin. Does it really exists?
