Hard to tell. She was originally full Minbari, who have basically solid bony plate extrusions from the back of their skulls covering the entire back of their heads. She went through a weird hybridising cocoon which made her part human, so the crown is presumably a vestigial plate. This would suggest that it's both solid and emerging from her actual skull all the way around, like the originals, but it's possible that because of the transformation it's only attached at either end like a mandible, or that it's no longer solid but something like a baleen plate that allows hair through it.

It's just that the make-up department visibly went for 'normal hair, but put a bony-looking crown over it', which was ... an unfortunate choice, really.

Huh.

Yup, very unfortunate choice. They should have stayed with bald. Or given her a Friar Tuck fringe. :)

I once read that they tested a style the would have been more logical with the boney ridge, but it looked terrible, so they had to rethink it totally and ended up with... that.

I like how it looks in the show, but I do think it looks illogical.
