Nyrat Agira wore her hair in the latest iteration of the Solloops hairstyle.
The solloops hairstyles,[1] also known as the solloop style, were curving[2] hairstyles that originated from[3] the Solloops system in the Kuat sector of the Core Worlds.[4]
In 22 BBY,[5] Nyrat Agira, a Human member of the[2] religious[6] cult Zealots of Psusan,[2] wore the latest iteration[1] of the hairstyle to the Outlander Club,[7] a nightclub and gambling hall[8] on the planet[9] Coruscant.[8] That same year,[10] she[2] wore the style again when visiting the club shortly after an assassination attempt on Senator Padmé Amidala.[11] The latest version[1] consisted of tall[2] sprayed curlicues[12] rising like serpents from the back of the wearers head.[1]
Behind the scenes
Star Wars: Attack of the Clones: The Visual Dictionary provided a name for the solloops hairstyles.
The solloops hairstyles were created for the prequel trilogy film Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones.[11] An iteration of the hairstyle was first revealed[13] on September 12, 2000[14] when the[13] uncredited[11] extra playing Nyrat Agira introduced the seventh episode of the Episode II behind-the-scenes video series on location.[13] The hairstyle first appeared in an illustration in the young readers book Jango Fett: Bounty Hunter, written by Eric Arnold and illustrated by Valerie Reckert.[7] The hairstyle was identified in the David West Reynolds written reference book Star Wars: Attack of the Clones: The Visual Dictionary.[9] Both works were published on April 23, 2002,[15][16] before the film's release on May 16, 2002.[17]
The capitalization of the hairstyle was first provided in the ninety-sixth issue of The Official Star Wars Fact File magazine series, published by De Agostini[1] on October 29, 2003[18] and authored by Iain Lowson.[19] The hairstyles were identified as solloop style in Agira's Databank entry posted on StarWars.com[2] on June 14, 2002.[20] Author Daniel Wallace's article "Who's Who in the Outlander Club: It's Ladies' Night", which was published in the seventy-fifth issue of the Star Wars Insider magazine[21] on April 6, 2004,[22] used the name "solloop" style.[21]

(backup link) (screenshot) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas, stated his intention to create homeworlds for numerous species based on context implied from their names. Given this principle, this article makes a similar basic assumption for the Solloops hairstyles in relation to the Solloops system.
