Who are you to say the way things are supposed to be? It's just like the natural evolution non-sense in the Prime Directive. If someone went back in time, maybe that is simply the way things were meant to be.

Let's see...
Predestination paradox
Also, this quote from VOY Relativity:
Fun video of different Star Trek inconsistencies (seemed relevant to the discussion)
Costume or Quinto's clothes? I can't tell the difference anymore. Folks today will wear anything on the streets.
If costume, it vaguely reminds me of uniforms in "The Cage" and WNMHGB, except the collar isn't ribbed. Maybe Spock civvies? If so, wouldn't he want to wear something not blue? I mean he has to wear blue almost all the time.

I kind of like his outfit, regardless.
Also, Spock wears blue because it goes well with his skin tone and hair. It is only logical

I'd pay twice the price of the ticket to see the movie if they kept Spock's hair that way. I'd pay three times the price if Spock had a line that said it's because Uhura likes it that way. I'd pay four times what I should if McCoy looked at it and said, "Get a haircut."

That's a photo of Pine on the mirror, isn't it?
I could understand Saldana wearing an add-on piece or extensions. Growing hair as long as Uhura's (and keeping it looking that healthy) would be a pain in the neck. Her usual style is reasonably long, but not that long even if it was dead straight.

Well, the conversation has moved on to hairstyling. We could always resurrect 'Pine's hair was parted on the wrong side,' and then you can compare and contrast to determine which is the most pointlessly pedantic.
Maybe the part being on the wrong side is a result of nefarious time travelers from the Vidal Sassoon nebula?
oh wait I think that's just something on the wall behind giving the illusion of massive hair. hes just got it in the classic TOS Shat style (for the first time)
I took the wrong hair parting as a subtle hint its all happening in an alternate/mirror universe

The picture in the upper left looks like it's Justin Bieber to me. Honestly. I mean, I know it's not, but honestly.
I wonder if one of those hairpieces is for Mr. Shatner. Could be a good sign he's in the movie. (Where'd the "beating a dead horse" emoticon go? I could've used it for both sentences.)

Pretty sure he brings his own...
Some of my local friends who I've successfully brought into the Trek fold were initially very hesitant to try to the franchise because they associated it with this sort of thing and this sort of thing only. The stigma is real. "Oh, that Jeff. He likes that nerd show." I had to ease them in, get them to see things for how they really are. What amuses me is that nowadays they often initiate these kinds of back-and-forths with me after watching an episode, and I'm just like, "ack, no, just enjoy it... n3rdz!"

Not so different from sports fans endlessly debating player statistics and rattling off scores and whatever else they do. Or people who are into cars talking about performance and specs and mechanical details and whatever. Any fan's fascinations seem like a pointless waste of time to those outside the fandom.
