Think they were going for the monk-like, tonsure-esque hairstyles of the Shadow People from the comics (which included Skaar's mom, Caiera).

It was a very spiritual society with a class of "Saka" priests, so the oddly shaved head of MCU Skaar may be leaning into that aspect.

Three years passed, but on an autumn day in 1177 the women received a visitor. It was Hotoke Gozen, already a nun.
Hotoke explained that, after seeing Giō humiliated, she patiently planned her escape and when free immediately took the tonsure.

Among the Merovingians, whose rulers were the 'long-haired kings', the ancient custom remained that an unsuccessful pretender or a dethroned king would be tonsured. Then he had to retire to a monastery, but sometimes this lasted only until his hair grew back.

While muted and grayish in overall tone, the AW18 collection had pops of seafoam green, orange and glossy for just the right amount of visual contrast to stand out amidst any setting: https://t.co/A8j5zjXmSB via
