There are many hairstyles that would make great hats on Roblox, but most of them are more Caucasian-inspired. We only have a handful of hats that are somewhat Black-inspired such as the Afro and Dreadlocks, but there is a lot more that would make great hats that reflects the diversity of Roblox players from around the world.

Well if we're not going to remove hair altogether I guess there's nothing wrong with more variety.

That being said, kindly stop believing that hair has a certain "race" to it. This is a stupid myth perpetuated by Tumblr social justice warriors. White people can have dreadlocks. Black people can have buzz cuts. It has everything to do with how you want to look and nothing to do with your race.

Yes anyone can have dreadlocks and yes anyone can get a buzz cut. But it's pretty clear races have different types of hair. Asians have more straight black hair. Blacks have more frizzy hair or curly hair and have black hair. White people tend to have more straight hair and quite a few different colors of hair. This doesn't apply to everyone. It's just genetics.

@Internevicus

Yes, all races can wear all hairstyles, but hairstyles still have specific origins, and it's impossible to ignore the fact that different races have different qualities in their hair/skin/almost every physical trait. However, most of the hairstyles on Roblox have only caucasian inspiration/origin. I just think it would give more players clothing they can relate to and many would be eager to wear new hairstyles.

I wouldn't be surprised if a racist flame war would break out on this thread.

Support, but I'd like to see a wider variety of hair in general to give more customization options for everyone.

@insaciate no... My idea is the opposite of racist, it's meant to be inclusive.

This is racist. African Americans have different types of hair styles. They could have white people hair styles too. Stop being racist.

That's because it's not. I feel like this guy is just trying to start something. Either that or he's just lost.

@Insatiate the solution to racial issues is not being blind to people's races. It's a fact that black people and white people have different hair qualities and have influenced different hairstyles. Adding more black-inspired hairstyles would embrace Roblox's black players.

But when I say curly, I mean like a variety of H0bbit-like hair; some short and curly, shoulder-length curly, and long curly hair.
