Wait, so what was the best one? Best what? Best meal you ever had. Yeah, it was, it was Carmy's.

Like Tai cutting her hair S1, maybe a piece blows off into the wind and Shauna picks it up. Maybe we get some line about hair having memories. Maybe Tai tells her to keep it ‘just in case’ to remember her bye. Maybe Shauna rolls her eyes, but she keeps it.

With Jackie, maybe instead of (or in addition to) the ear, maybe Jackie’s hair gets caught on like a nail or something and Shauna can’t get it off, so she cuts it off. We see her look at it before she puts it in her pocket.

The baby. Her baby. There’s barely any hair on his head. Maybe she doesn’t even think of it. Not until later, not until…Javi.

With Javi, we see her hesitate. He’s just a kid and she has to butcher him. We see her fiddle with his locks, there’s frost in his hair, more than with Jackie, and she has to purposely separate some of it until she gets a good tress. His hair is shorter than Jackie's too. She has no scissors, she has to cut it with her knife. It's difficult, it's sloppy, it's deliberate. 

Maybe we see her cry. She has three locks now; three memories. Tai, who is still alive; her hair doesn’t even matter, it shouldn’t even matter, but it was the first and she can’t seem to get rid of it. Jackie, her best friend; she hated her, she loved her, she killed her and she can never let her go. It only makes sense to keep a piece of her. Javi; His is the first hair she purposely takes, just like he’s the first life they purposely take, the first human she has to butcher. A kid. A baby. 

And what about her baby? Nothing. She has nothing from him. Even if she dug him up, there’d be nothing. She has nothing of him. Not even memories. 

Something in her shifts. We see her stare at people sometimes. Except it’s not really them she looks at. Imagine that scene after she tackled Mari: we see Shauna visibly angry and as Mari turns around, still with that ‘L’ on her forehead, we get a closeup of her hair as it whips back.

Maybe when they go to Coach that night they don’t just slice his foot. Maybe Shauna decides she wants just a piece, a placeholder for her baby’s from the adult who didn’t help her. It feels like justice, like revenge. More so than crippling him.

Maybe when she kisses Melissa, we get another close up of her with a fist full of hair. Maybe when she argues with Nat we get a scene of the same thing. It becomes a pattern. With Hannah obviously, but maybe Kodi and the other hiker guy too.

And finally, when we get our antler queen it’s not just one or two peoples hair; it's a horrific collage. Some pieces are lighter, blond, while others are brown or black. Some shorter, or longer, curlier, straighter, thinner or entire chunks, etc. It becomes clear, these are no longer memories. They’re trophies.
