Now your hair too can be rigidly plasticine, with a lovely tinge of Ryan Lochte turquoise!

The commercial will premiere on August 30 and feature Miku without her trademark twintails.

guessing there's a typo in there because all those screenshots very clearly show the twintails.

I'm all for more Miku commercials but this one seems ill thought out. Using a not-real person's not-real hair to advertise real hair products is like some next level false advertising Laughing

So straight hair is now what's in? I remember when curly hair was all the rage, in both Japan and Korea.

My guess is that most of the commercial will show Miku with the ponytails, but she'll let her hair down mid-commercial.

(Somehow, I always imagined her ponytails as actual appendages or hiding equipment, and not actually hair held up.)

As much as I love Miku I think that I'm going to pass on the having hair just like her. Hell I get compliments from girls all the time about how my hair is the best they've ever seen and yes my hair is really long especially for a guy but that's the way I like it. Cool

Maybe the one that will premiere on August 30th isn't exactly this one. And I'm guessing she will pull down her twin-tails at some point during the commercial, rather than having her hair down the entire time.

Reminds me of AMD TressFX vs Nvidia HairWorks. Rendering hair and fur is Serious Business, but never has video game hair looked so good.

I have to agree: whoever did the work did not bring out Miku's best.
