Hairstyles for the elven groups
So I've been thinking about sharing some of my designs for the different groups of elves in middle earth.
Here I'm going with the hairstyles, I'll probably post clothing styles later as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Noldor + Vanyar ↑↑
The noldor have a love for crafting and beautiful things. My HC is therefore also that they don't go easy on the jewelry. And since hair + elves is already pretty serious business, decorating something like hair would be seen as adding more beauty to a somewhat sacred thing.
I read somewhere that the vanyar preferred to wear more modest jewelry. But my own HC is actually that they very much enjoy using 'sun'-symbolism. So lots of bright golden jewelry in Halo styles adorned with flowers.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Teleri/Falmari + Nandor ↑↑
Teleri and Falmari people in my HC use pearls and seashells the most in their jewelry making. Since they have such a close bond to the sea, I think it wouldn't be uncommon for them to have mastered the art of using pearls and shells to their liking.
The Nandor being one group of elves that is closest to nature, I believe that they would mostly use natural accessories for their hair like flowers or vines.
Avari + Silvan ↓↓
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Avari were the unwilling ones because of their overpowering love for the stars. Because of this I do HC them to mostly use darker colors in combination with night blooming flowers. Especially ones that resemble stars. So their hair will likely have pearly flowers braided into it to represent starlight.
The Silvans are another group that is close to nature; woodland elves. I HC that they use similar jewelry and Accessories as the Nandor but they also use more classical metal jewelry. Hairstyles can be intricate or just left loose.

😘 your tags. #you know what you're risking but these are still YOUR TREES you can't think of them as a trap even though you know danger lurks here #you know and yet AND YET— That part got me like they originally started the trip to aman but stayed in the forest for a reason
Ahh thank you, anon. I have a completely normal amount of feelings about Mirkwood/Greenwood shhhhh.
And so do the Wood-elves who live there, of course, and that's why they never left; not when the Valar called them, and not when their forest was overrun by the terrible darkness of the ever-creeping Shadow of the dread Dark Lord, not when their own unhoused spirits started being caught and trapped and twisted to become part of that darkness, because even with Sauron himself squatting in their former fortress it was still their forest and nothing was going to make them leave their trees. That forest is their home and more than that, that's who they are. They do not leave it lightly.
(It's why the Sea-Longing hits Legolas so particularly hard, I think. It's not something that his people are often afflicted with, in my take on Middle-earth; the Wood-elves didn't leave the first time, they have no ties or memories to call them there, they go sometimes but they don't know the longing for Aman the way the Calquendi do, not very often anyway...so when it hits him, he's not only not ready to leave the Middle-earth that he loves nor the people in it but also I think he feels a little bit guilty, a little bit disloyal, that he even wants to leave in the first place. Because he's a Wood-elf of Mirkwood! Why does his heart long for distant white shores more than for the black and twisted trees of his beloved home!? He shouldn't want to go but he does and it hurts, it hurts to want to leave...)

One of my favourite elves to date.
I'm starting to understand swords now. This is also my first real attempt at a background - nothing too fancy, just wanted to capture the gist of the scene he was in. I also was decently challenged by the lighting and shading. The shirt was probably the most fun. Expect to see more fan art of the Silvan elf.

I love my forest children and their stories,,, Harz(a).
She/He. -The heart of the forest in the form of a lady. -The closer to the goal, the more flowering herbs, and the faster the mind slips away. -Harz likes a good conversation. But do you have the courage to do so?

If the Rings of Power didn't have the rights to any of Tolkien's works, why didn't they just write about Thranduil and the history of the Greenwood/Silvan elves?? Tolkien barely wrote about that. And frankly I believe they deserve more love.

copy and pasted from my twitter:
morquendi hc: newborns are kept indoors until the new moon. this is so their first vision of the sky is as close to cuivienen as possible
know that "sundays child is x, mondays is y, etc?" theres that but for the phases of the moon. children of the new moon want for nothing for they dont have to wait, good things come to those that wait (children born on a waxing crescent), and i havent decided the rest.
of course theres also star signs, but idk anything about that yet
anyway i specifically say morquendi bc the two trees block the starlight and iirc seem to be held in higher esteem for calaquendi. there could be tree signs tho 👀
