          You can’t tell her hat from her hair. I just saw this ep for the first time and that is some masterful acting. She elevated everyone else on the goofy pastel set. She brought tension to every shot. BADASS LADY SCIENCE POPE.

      To be fair, it’s kind of rare for a black guy to be able to even have a bowl cut.

      I want to see what he looks like with the front long enough to touch his eyebrows.

    They adopted that haircut because they thought it would help them better interact with humans. They intercepted a lot of television broadcasts and decided this was humanity’s greatest champion.

          This is one of the many reasons why the Vulcans were so interested in us … because of representatives like this …

      They had a few early television and radio broadcast characters that had similar features

    The Vulcan Cosmetology Directorate has determined that the bowl cut is the most efficient and logical hairstyle to suit all occasions.

      Except that’s not a bowl cut. It’s closer to a lame pixie cut than a bowl cut.

      The vulcan science directorate has determined that there once were two hairstyles in the past (the second probably having something to do with Romulans). They also determined that time travel is impossible, hence just one hairstyle now.

      I mean it’s the haircut moms give kids to optimize for time, so it’s definitely efficient.

      She read that book on human sexuality and logically she would choose a more human hairstyle since Spock is half human.

      That or she didn’t want to be a basic bitch.

      Original series T’pring’s attitude could make any hairdo look good. You gotta believe in yourself as a triflin’, intriguin’, spicy murder senorita before you can pull it off.

    Shouldn’t they simply all have a buzz cut? Easy to maintain, easy to keep clean even in difficult circumstances, never gets in the way. Just the most logical haircut.

      There’s a theory that head hair grows longer because of people. Essentially longer head hair was sexy to cromags.

      On Vulcan that would’ve been a different. The Vulcan cromag really liked the look of circumcised penis.

      Is it not logical to adapt to Earth culture by adopting its most beloved hairstyle?

    I’d be remiss if I didn’t point out that you have two pairs of the same person and that more than half of these examples (Solkar, Spock, Sarek) are sourced from a single family.

        Look, I’m just sayin’, if you know there’s a particular haircut that looks good on your family’s skull shape, it might be logical to stick with it.

      It kind of really is

      • unisex
      • low maintenance, looks pretty much the same at all times
      • functional, nothing can get stuck in machinery or fall into the eyes, fits easily into helmets
      • unassuming, reasonably aesthetic

      The Barber of Vulcan gives everyone a bowl cut who doesn’t do their own hair, so who bowl cuts the barber? (Ancient Vulcan logic test, too difficult for human minds.)

    Vulcan’s hair could simply grow to this length and stop.
