The PBS show "Wired Science" has a host with really lovely long hair. Her name is Ziya Tong. Apparently she is also the host on CBC's "Zed TV". I was watching Wired Science today and her hair has gotten almost to waist length. It was so shiny, wavy and gorgeous I was just in awe!

Also the lead on the new show "Fringe", Anna Torv, has very nice straight long blond hair:

Please show some of your favorite long hair TV stars!!

She's not a TV star, but I've always loved Amy Lee's hair (http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg231/cassiemay91/Amy_Lee_0015-1.jpg).

I like Poppy Montgomery from Without A Trace. Her hair isn't super long, but it's pretty.

(Sorry, lots of pics, and I'm just using character names here.)

Oh, I'm a huge Joss Whedon fan, so I love Inara's hair too, AJoifulNoise! :) Also Zoe's - who wears a Flexi-8.

I adore Cordelia's long hair in Buffy and Angel and was very sad when she cut it short. Also, Faith's hair (also Buffy and Angel) is very cool.

In my younger years I got long hair inspiration from the Star Trek gals - Dax and Troi.

I am always gob-smacked by Gina's cascade of hair on Joey. Carol on ER has gorgeous thick curls.


I love Manny's hair on Black Books. Actually, it's probably the most important thing in the whole show. ;) A good portion of the DVD commentaries is devoted to it too ...!

Maggie Lawson plays Juliet O'Hara on the TV show "Psych". She had waist length hair which she has cut to a long bra stap length, but what I love is that she almost ALWAYS has a hairstick holding up her do!

I always liked CSI NY's detective, Melina Kanakaredes (http://www.imdb.com/media/rm1820956416/nm0005074) (that's her real name.) Her hair usually looks great, although I think it's lighter now than it was when she first started.

Alicia Witt used to be on this show called Cybil in the 90s and I ADORED her long red hair! I wanted her so bad. Now it still looks great, I think she's done some other stuff too.

Well, anyhow, I like her hair. I'm sure I could think of others too, but I've got henna on my head and red is on my brain.

Hello all! I looked through the search but I couldn't find a thread with this type of thing so I thought ti would be fun to list some "Inspirational" Films that have women/men with Long Hair! I thought that it would be fun if we are all feeling like renting a good movie that happens to celebrate long hair!

Mine that I can think of are:

Mists of Avalon
Anne of Green Gables
Psych

What can you all come up with?:D

Movies and TV shows with long haired characters... hmmm... I agree the Mists of Avalon (I watched this last night :) ), Anne of Green Gables, Firefly, and Buffy/Angel all had characters with great hair. People mentioned Faith and Cordelia from Buffy/Angel, but at some point both Buffy and Dawn also had quite long hair too.

Personally I always loved Piper's hair from Charmed, though all the sisters had gorgeous long hair at times, but Piper's hair was one of my inspirations for growing my hair.
( http://patrique.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/charmed_casting.jpg )

Oh, and Amber Tamblyn in almost anything, but I recall in Joan of Arcadia her hair was pretty long. (I think almost waist length at one point).

Apparently I love cancelled shows *sigh*.

I must throw in a vote for Firefly as well - ALL of the women, Zoe, River, Kaylee, and Inara have longer than usual hair. Although Morena Baccarin recently changed

http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/blogs/themoment/posts/morena_baccarin.jpg

she still looks amazing. :)

And Firefly fans, remember Shepherd Book's natural 'do that scared River in "Jaynestown" (I think)? teehee...

Morgana in the BBC 1 programme Merlin has fantastic hair, it is probably done with hairpieces but it's an inspiration to me at the moment.Lots of the incidental characters have great hair too, I suppose it's to be expected in an Arthurian retelling.

Yes, nice hair though. In the book it's based on, the length of a woman's hair in the land the character is from is a judge of social standing. Lots of hair. xD

It is implied that she didn't like it either. I've heard many people say that. Here's an interesting interview they had with her where they asked about her long hair (extentions)

http://www.charisma-carpenter.com/articles/?id=65

As for Amy Lee, her hair has been shorter lately, though looking at some more recent pictures she may be on the grow. Not sure. But she did definitely cut it.

The Legend of The Seeker is a good show. Unfortunately, I don't think that the hair is all hers. http://www.sword-of-truth.com/sot/tv/cast/bridget_regan/bridget_regan.jpg

Still it does look good.

Bree Williamson who plays Jess/Tess Buchanan on "One Life to Live" is growing out her blonde hair. I googled her but only found images of her short hair in the past or curled hair earlier in the year. She has been wearing it straight and long and it looks good.

With the show Legend of the Seeker, I like that Kahla is very feminine with her long hair and white dress, yet she can kick butt. It kind of works agains the stereotype.

As for other long haired TV stars, there is Shiri Appleby from the show Roswell and Six Degrees. After Roswell she grew it even longer, cut it very short, only to grow it out long again. :) http://www.sappleby.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=535

Kritin Kreuk who played Lana Lang on Smallville had beautiful hair. I didn't fully appreciate it until I learned that she recently chopped it all off. Part of the reason I didn't appreciate it was that I was sick of her character. Sorry, I know that's off topic.

I can not forget the beautiful heads of Hair on Little House on the Prarie, Karen Grassle had amazing long hair, as did Mellissa Sue Anderson and Mellissa Gilbert, Alison Arngrim wore wigs for her role as Nellie as her hair would not hold curl in the California heat. That show was a great one for hair and other things.

In "reality" television, I love Analeigh's hair in this fall's cycle of America's Next Top Model:

(Photo removed because of possible copyright infringements. Please place links instead.)

She had it in a really neat braided-across-the-top-of-her-head-but-the-rest-left-down thing going on last night that was very pretty. Usually Tyra chops the heck out of the hamsters' hair during their "makeovers", but she pretty much left Analeigh's alone. I hate to see it back-combed and fried for every photo shoot, but, eh, that's to be expected.

I loved hers too...She grew it back though, and said that cutting her hair was a huge mistake since it was her trademark.

When did Alanis say that? I'd like to find that quote.

Topanga had such gorgeous hair. Everyone else loved her haircut, and I was going "How could she?" At varying points after the show, she grew it back and then cut it again. I don't know what her hair looks like now.

I was a kid (though nearing my teens) when the kids show Power Rangers was first on. The guy who played the Green Ranger, and eventually the White Ranger had long hair. He was usually regarded as the coolest Power Ranger. Not to mention he was the love interest of the best looking girl on the team. Girls loved him and guys wanted to be him. I was inspired to grow my hair like his, though my parents didn't take to that idea very kindly.

November 16th, 2008, 09:42 PM
I think Alanis Morrisette said she regretted cutting her hair in haste after a bad breakup. She missed her long hair, but she did say it was liberating to cut it. I can't remember where I read that, but I think it was the Glamour article.

Natascha E is GORGEOUS! Though, I just read she's married to a plastic surgeon ;) I think she just had a baby.
