How so?
Animal Crossing is a cartoon-ish artstyle, so the hairstyle matches that at times. Besides, Afros can be as big or small as one wants! Go big or go home sometimes.
Wear them if you like them, no matter what anyone else says.
Considering how ruthless people can be on social media about ethnics, etc, and the fact I've been on the receiving end before a few years ago... I'll pass.

You know, I was actually pretty indifferent to a lot of the hair styles, but those buns do look cute from the screenshot you provided 
. I’m not sure if I’ll use them, but it is nice to have some more options regardless. I actually liked the shaved and bald hair style the best until I saw your picture. lol.
I agree with this. Wearing them is not disrespecting anyone unless you put in your description or add text with some derogatory language.
This is my opinion of course; no disrespect to others who feel otherwise or still feel uncomfortable. I have severe anxiety so I have been refraining from posting my designs on social media having seen myself how rude people are (on matters not related to AC). Even here, I do get worried about how people feel about my stuff even though what matters is that I’m happen with it, especially after the halloween contest.
Understandable. You know you could always just wear a different hair style if you really like sharing your screenshots there and worry about people’s opinions that much and then change it back to whatever you like when you play by yourself. But it’s your game, so definitely do whatever makes you feel comfortable.

I look like me now :')
Nintendo won me over once again.
On a more serious note, I think people are allowed to wear these hairstyles since Animal Crossing is a game. But my personal opinion does not speak for the majority of black people, they are just my thoughts on the matter. I'm just glad there is more representation and customization in the game everyone can enjoy! <3

I love the buns ! I've always wanted that hairstyle irl but could never do it so to have in acnh is amazing ! Look at him !
Honestly it's a littttttle disappointing to me that poc had to WAIT months into the game being released to finally get some accurate representation with hairstyles imo, but I guess better late than never. Would have been nice to have some default poc hairstyles

Taking a break :3
I think the new hairstyles are adorable and I'm so glad they added them in.
But because of everything that's being said about them on social media, I'm avoiding using them.

I love them. Though I wonder why the 2nd batch was basically all fade/undercut short styles like... uh that's is not diverse lol.

I feel like nintendo tried to just add hair styles that are the epitome of basic to please the majority. But since people are able to be vocal due to social media, people with textured hair were like "HELLO my hair doesnt look like that". I dont think nintendo did it to be malicious, but hopefully in the future they make a better effort to be reminded there are lots of people that have super textured hair.
this may be a little off-topic so sorry in advance, but this tweet showed up on my timeline this morning and I think it offers some important hindsight on why black people can be so defensive and protective of their hair. when your feelings get hurt because someone says you shouldn't use a hairstyle in a video game, remember that black people got segregated because of that hair, and remember that even today black people can't get jobs because of their hair, and that many black women feel forced to go through the harmful process of relaxing their hair or painstakingly applying wigs in order to conform to white standards,
I understand this but the fact is they aren't the only people with hairstyles like these historically. People need to leave other people's bodies alone period. Including businesses who want to dictate people's hair. And No one should be criticized that they aren't __whatever here__ enough to wear __whatever here__.
As for the double buns, I do wear my hair that way when I get my hair cut. My hair isn't that texture, and I don't braid it like this depicts, but the general style I do wear. If you want to wear your hair however, then go for it.
