Tell me about it. Usually I do news M-F. Last week it was M-Sunday. :/

I have the liability of being a one-[wo]man shop and not being based in L.A. like my competitors.
 
And yet another change in the Klingons appearences. This series is turning into such a joke now. Enough is enough.
 
‘In the first season, it was about the hair when it came to the Klingons. “There is this whole thing with hair and ritual and unification that was very much in the forefront of our mind when we [were] designing,” said Hetrick.”’

Don't know who Glenn Hetrick is, but he's definitely trolling.
 
If you read the interviews with him and the other designers, they made an effort to make each Klingon and more importantly each house unique. You really see this in the armor they wear. I think what he means is that we're going to see the Klingons start heading towards a single vision since that's what T'Kuvma and his followers wanted. His whole goal was to unite the houses and L'Rell's motivation in siding with Starfleet was to do this and prevent them from dying in endless wars between the houses.

The face design is probably going to stay the same, I'm not sure why they would change that since they seem happy with it. The armor changes would be due to the story, showing how the Klingons became the empire that we've come to know.

That's exactly how I read it as well.

He's the lead makeup designer.

While this didn't show up on screen, it was probably part of the internal story.
