aespa Winter's Long Hair: Style Statement or Poor Mistake?
Winter of aespa became the subject of discussion online.
In a forum made by netizens online, an author posted a photo of Winter at the 12th Circle Chart Music Awards. Although Winter is currently rocking a mid-length styling nowadays, the original poster still mentioned how much long hairstyle didn't suit the idol.
According to the author, this is because Winter looked "average" during aespa's "Black Mamba" era, where she sported a long, wavy hairstyle that captured most audiences. However, Winter became one of the top-tier visual idols because of her short haircut.
The author stated:
"I think it's because maybe she looked 'so-so' during the group's 'Black Mamba' phase in their rookie days. But nowadays, I think Winter is now at the top tier among female idols because of her mid-length hair and bangs.
Winter's look in long hair cuts her visuals in half, and I feel that they really should stick to her short hairstyling."

- "That day, the makeup they did on Winter didn't really suit her. It just happened that her makeup didn't synchronize with Winter's visuals. Other times, she looked so pretty with her long hair."
Meanwhile, some expressed that Winter didn't look bad at the picture at all, since everyone just got used to her bob haircut, which set the standard too high!
- "It's not that she doesn't fit long hair. I just think we got so used to her with a bob haircut. She's a pretty girl and will always look good in everything."
- "She's one of the idols who can pull off any hairstyle."
