The more success, the more freedom, yes, but for some things the labels are pretty restrict.

BoA, for example, debuted in 2000s, but her label only allowed her to cut her hair short in 2011. She said in some interviews she was forbidden to change her hairstyle and I think it's pretty much the case with Perfume, which is a shame, it's tiresome to be wearing the same hair for years.
Actually, I don't think it's the label that's enforcing it---I think they're enforcing it on themselves. I do agree that the girls have much more creative freedom (except musically) nowadays compared to the past. But I believe they once said before that they feel that they'll lose their identity as 'Perfume' if they ever drastically changed their styles. So, essentially, they do have control over what they wear, what they look, but they still try to maintain what makes them 'them'.

Nocchi did express wanting an even shorter hairstyle and Kashi wanting something like a pixie cut in a radio show before I think.
