Donna Flats + Mariachi Ankle Boots: I think it's safe to say it's been done to death.

Fairy lipgloss + small metal spheres. Or the Fairy Lipgloss all together. It doesn't match everything, and it's getting really old.

Oh and the whole Gradient effect is getting a bit old to me, everyone can do it by now, and sometimes when done, it looks like a piece of crap, tbh.

Gradients, especially really poorly done gradients. It's rainbow vomit in another form, in my opinion, and it's getting old. Subtle gradients aren't so bad, but the current trend of lets do this gradient that is blatantly obvious just needs to die.

I completely agree with this :)

And also the shoving of the Deluxe Tea Set under non-brown wigs :A WHY WHY WHY.

Tea Set Abuse definitely needs to stop, and so does this idea that you can stick any wig over hair of a similar but not matching color and it will work. New flash, not all browns are the same brown, not all blonds are the same blond.

Exactly. The whole "hair layering" is not very pleasant looking. There is, yes some combos that DO look good together but others.. not so well. :aww:

I'm pretty over the cer hair. It's already faded but I was just so sick of looking at it for that long period of time for its reign. First it was semblance, then hime, and cer. And don't get me wrong! I've adored my share of cer hair avatar, but after it just started looking like a paper doll.

FLAT HAIR.
Please stop.I have wanted to adore avatars before but can't bring myself to do it because the hair is either literally one solid color or the color difference between the shading, highlight, and base is so minor that it still looks flat. Please try to give your salon hair a little more depth and realism. :A

Oh my god THIS.

Also, I don't know how to call it, but - using a bright color for dark shading and the same (dark) color for the base and bright shading.

I don't see it that often but still :A :A :A :A :A :A

Go to the salon, you'll see what I mean.

What do you mean by gradients? I mean, I know what a gradient IS, but how are people using it on HAs, and why is it annoying? D:
(So many things I didn't realize were trends, let alone old trends..)
