 Can some please explain to me why in the world there is no long hair option for femshep??? At least some decent pony tail style option??? Has bioware ever commented on why no females in the galaxy have long hair except for miranda?

There is a pony tail option. There are also several options for femshep to wear a bun. It does not make sense for Miranda or Ashley to be fighting in long hair (or high heels).

You make it sound like I should give up my hopes for femShep strawberry flavoured battlefield garments with tassel's on them 

Honestly though, a longer ponytail/braid wouldn't have killed Shepard.  Long puffy 80s type hair styles would have for sure.

I think it was mainly due to the technology. If you look at Miranda's hair, it never moved dynamically, and the longer hair strands are glued to her shoulders to ease animation (well, what little animation there is!). It would have been a nightmare to try and get the dynamic hair to work every time. But I share your frustration; some characters need more unkempt hair.

Alliance Regs is a good point, though; it seems that standard soldier attire is to have the helmet on, and long hair would mean that it would get caught up in the pieces as you attach and detach it.

I like glamorous looking characters (so I dig the high heels on Samara/Morinth and Miranda) but I always thought of the lack-of-long-hair option as more of a technical issue than a design choice, since Shepard wears more different shaped armor and appears in crazier situations and cutscenes than Miranda/Ashley, so there would probably be a lot of clipping and glitches, but I'm sure a lot of people would say it was worth it anyways.

Well, it always bugs me when I take Miranda and Samara to fight the final boss and they hop up on the platform with their high heels. (I also dislike the over-emphasis on cleavage and bubble-butts.) And breathers instead of helmets in a hard vacuum is just nuts.

I've always felt that Miranda's catsuit traverses too far down the butt canyon; unless it clings to the skin there's no way the material would behave like that. The ME1 armours had similar issues, for both genders!

I assume that with the breathers thing you're thinking about skin dehydration, right?

I would imagine that Caps beef is more along the lines of pressure. (Because its my beef with the asari having their eyeballs exposed to space) 
Our epidermis cannot withstand being in a vacuum.  Not only would the human body bulge up like a balloon, but the lack of pressure would also cause your blood to boil.

I did think the breathers looked strange but I assumed that Asari are built different so they don't need a full on helmet and maybe they have super technology for that stuff in the future, I also think the catsuit going inbetween Miranda's buttcheeks looked kind of strange (Jacob's suit does it too, but not as much).

But I love seeing Samara/Morinth and Miranda kick ass in heels, I just think it looks so badass. And the cleavage doesn't bother me in the slightest, Asari culture is different so I thought Asari are less conservative with their fashion. They're all the same gender so I don't think they have the same issues humans have with fashion and their bodies. And I don't think they really "over-emphasised" the cleavage, there wasn't any panning down to their breasts or anything, it was just cleavage on Samara and (barely) Miranda. Plus, Thane Krios had almost as much cleavage as Samara/Morinth and more than Miranda.

And I always thought of Miranda's catsuit as part of Cerberus' style, like the Eva robot, I thought Illusive Man enjoyed that sleek style on his employees.

The Eva robot was really strange; the breasts were gigantic and slung slow, and the metal backpiece turned into what looked like a steel g-string by the time it got to the buttocks. It's completely out of character for EDI.

[Handmaiden]

If you're the richest person in the universe in the future, why not have robots shaped like glamorous FemBots as your guards?

I loved having EDI fight next to me after she took control of the robot lol (but I did choose the catsuit version). I think it makes less sense that she would want to enter a robot and fight with you on missions instead of the capable squadmates in the first place than the actual shape of the robot itself.

I'm more talking from a storytelling perspective. While there's no way the Illusive Man could have predicted that EDI would take control of Eva, as storytellers I feel that Bioware could have made Eva's 'raw' appearance more appropriate for when EDI is using it.

In one aspect it does make sense; EDI would be able to access systems physically that she would be unable to access digitally. The Cronos Station raid at the end of Mass Effect 3 is a great example of this.

this annoys me as well, and i can't find a mod to fix it. if i did it would have to be for all 3 games though, it would be weird otherwise.

so i only have one hairstyle i like and use.

[KBABZ]

Personally I think it would have been nice to have a few scruffier hairstyles, as opposed to a long list of very neat ones. Plus, all the male hairstyles are short!

Have you tried the close cropped hairstyle? It is rather mussy. I am using it right now on Tabitha Shepard. It looks properly military without being a buzz cut. (Well, she might get a demerit or two for not combing it, but Tabitha has never been about spit and polish.)

[KBABZ]

I suppose, it does look rather well-combed. The longer style that Traynor has is the one I usually go for due to length, especially in ME2 where it gets scruffier for some reason.

All the male hairstyles should be short. Shepard is military.

Whether or not that was a choice made to add to the atmosphere, or if it was just dictated by technical issues, in the end the game got it right by having male Shep's hair be short.

[KBABZ]

I suppose, but I wasn't looking for long, Limozeen-style hair for the next concert. I just wanted some mid-length hair that could form a decent-looking fringe and a quarter-of-a-mullet to look more like how I envisioned the Shepard I wanted to have.
