#Elladan and Elrohir find portraits of Elrond in his short hair phase

[aspiringnexu]

What if the short hair styles are the elf equivalent of 70s mullets?

What if its the fashion for elven men at the time to wear their hair short. It’s the latest thing! It’s what all the younger ones are doing, and Celebrimbor is joining in because yeah he’s not an elfling anymore but he’s allowed to try new styles! And Gil-Galad is rolling his eyes because fashion, ugh, it’ll pass in a few centuries.

#rings of power #the rings of power #elf hairstyles #I love the long luscious locks as much as the next tolkienite #but you have to admit they probably switched it up a few times every millennium #the elflings at least #like Finrod had his hair short in Valinor #maybe he was early to the elf mullet party #Elladan and Elrohir find portraits of Elrond in his short hair phase #and he is mercilessly mocked #he insists it was cool at the time #they are mortified that their dad was the equivalent of a human hippie #what were you thinking ada? #...Durin said it looked nice #really I do want the proper elf hair back next season but I find this explanation very amusing
