What's your favorite 'hair' movie

[Luckysock]

I'd have to say Practical Magic (http://img.listal.com/image/107774/500full-practical-)... totally a hair movie

[florenonite]

Lord of the Rings, any of the three! Even the men have long hair; a lot of "hair" movies only have women with long hair.

[linda g]

Another vote for Lord of the Rings!

[PhillyGirl1978@]

I'd have to say Practical Magic (http://img.listal.com/image/107774/500full-practical-)... totally a hair movie



I LOVE that movie....I watched it twice this weekend!lol

[Ravenwaves 88]

I don't know if this counts, but most of the disney movies I grew up with have long haired ladies. The Little Mermaid, Thumbellina, Sleeping beauty, Pocahantas. I remember being enchanted at a young age by hair.

Oooo I got it.....that new movie Enchanted!

[Redheaded Raven]

One of my fav's is EverAfter but I really have so many fav hair movies. lol

[Das Siechtum]

Lord of the rings here.

[Shiva]

Practical Magic is one of my favorite movies, as well. I love the hair on the girls and ladies, but I also LOOOVE that house!

Another favorite movie (well not really a movie-movie) with great hair in it is The Mists of Avalon.

And then there is The Witches of Eastwick... some great hair in there, as well.

[Heavenly Locks]

Princess Bride!! :D *swoon*

[linda g]

Oh, and "Last of the Mohicans"!

[Themyst]

Probably most '70's movies where the guys & gals all had long, shaggy hair. :cool:

[liseling]

Lord of the rings here.


Das Siechtum, in your avatar you look like YOU could be in the Lord of the Rings! :)

I'll have to agree with everyone who enjoys the hair in LOTR

I also remember admiring the hair in "Witches of Eastwick" - not that the hair was really special like in LOTR, but I thought it was so cool that Cher, Susan Sarandon, and Michelle Pfeiffer were all in it together and one's hair is very blond, one's is very black, and one's is very red. It was just such a cool contrast.

[Olivia23]

Stardust is one of my recent favorites. Claire Danes and Michelle Phifer both have gorgeous hair in the is movie. Oh and now you guys are making me want to watch Practical Magic again. I love that movie!

[Shiva]

Oh, and "Last of the Mohicans"!
Good call!

I also would like to add Dances with Wolves, as well.

[myotislucifugus]

Braveheart, I love how long the Princess of Wales hair is...

And, of course, Star Wars. I don't care if Leia's hair was fake... I'll NEVER admit it! I can give up many beliefs of my childhood, like Santa Clause, the Easter Bunny, and the nutritional benefits of cooked broccoli, but never the reality of Princess Leia's hair!

[Ravenwaves 88]

OMG The Last Unicorn!! I keep thinking cartoons for some reason but I guess I watched alot of them growing up.

[Magicknthenight]

Ekusute. haha heard about it on here, was curious, and watched it. Was actually pretty good IMO. bought it. Subtitles are horrible but its ok..i guess -.-
I like any movie where theirs a long hair sighting in it ^-^ sometimes it distracts me actually...
I wish i could turn to the person next to me and say "whoa did you see that lady's hair in the background there" But I've learned from that one haha and the looks they give. What?! Its nice! :p

o yea Ravenwaves 88 that reminded me! I loved the hair in that movie haha. Always swaying around..then asking myself why it can't do that in real life.

[KaasKnot]

I like Princess Amidala's hairstyles in Star Wars, Ep. 1. They don't really showcase her length, but I remember watching it and thinking "how will she do her hair next?" I really like this one: http://www.blueharvest.net/images/prequel/pr/pr-amidala.jpg

[Xandergrammy]

Franco Zefferelli's "Romeo and Juliet". Seeing Olivia Hussey's hair in that movie made me fall in love with long hair. :crush:

[free_hug]

Oh, one of my favorite hair movies is certainly
http://www.atthemovies.co.uk/big/hair1979us22x28in120.jpg

:D

[jasper]

It's not a hair movie really, but I was watching Proof with Gwyneth Paltrow while I was trying the caramel treatment for the first time. She has long hair which was was kind of fascinating me through the movie. I think the length and look of her hair was supposed to show how she forgot herself over the years with the preoccupation of caring for her invalid father and being a possible math genius. It's not too positive a hair movie, since her long hair getting longer is maybe the trait of a crazy person-- but there is a sort of jojoba joke in the film. :)

[JaneinMarch]

My fave is Eve's Bayou, but Legend has some good hair moments as well. :drama:

[Themyst]

I just watched Braveheart tonight. I forgot how much great hair was in that movie.

[Dark Rosaleen]

The Princess Bride and Lord of the Rings are some of my favorites, but I'll add something new.

Anne of Green Gables and the sequel have some very pretty hairstyles. Uhura's hair in the new Star Trek was good. Oh and Somewhere in Time since I just read a thread someone posted about Jane Seymour.

[Das Siechtum]

Das Siechtum, in your avatar you look like YOU could be in the Lord of the Rings! :)

I'll have to agree with everyone who enjoys the hair in LOTR



Thank you! :-)

[tangocurl]

OK--I thought The Watchmen was a very corny movie--but I loved the hair

[flyfaraway]

Personally, I thought Nicole Kidman's hair (http://www.independentcritics.com/images/moulin%20rouge%20SPLASH2.jpg) in Moulin Rouge was gorgeous.

[BlueWaterRed]

My favorite hair movie is from 1975: Shampoo with Julie Christie, Goldie Hawn and Warren Beatty. It was Julie's beautiful long bob that has stuck in my mind for all these years (it's been that long?).

[Rory]

Or Nicole Kidman's hair in Far and Away. Love the curly wurly!

[s-a-m-a-r-k-a-n]

Mine is not a movie but a TV serial. It's Northern Exposure. There's lots of long natural hair, loose and braided. The character of Marilyn Whirlwind has gorgeous hair. I love her hairstyles especially in the epizode Learning Curve, it's the one when she goes to Seattle on vacation.

[Bellalalala]

OK--I thought The Watchmen was a very corny movie--but I loved this hair (http://www.mynewhair.info/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/malin-akerman-watchmen.jpg):



that's definitely a wig, that actress has wavy blond hair (http://starsmedia.ign.com/stars/image/article/843/843490/malin-akerman-20070926063408269_1199407843.jpg)

[Teacherbear]

Anna and the King with Jodie Foster. I know they were all wigs, but WOW!

[Merewen]

I'm going to throw out a slightly unconventional one that mesmerized me as a child. Remember the centaurs in Disnney's Fantasia?

http://blog.johannaost.com/images/uploads/37_medium.pnghttp://blog.johannaost.com/images/uploads/25_medium.png

[Suisan]

Helena Bonham-Carter had some seriously amazing hair in A Room with a View. Maggie Smith had a nice updo as well.

And I love the hair in Last of the Mohicans. (I sort of have a thing for Daniel Day-Lewis as it is.)

[Olivia23]

JaneinMarch - I cannot believe you mentioned Legend! I love that movie! I didn't mention it because I figured nobody would know what I was talking about.

[adiapalic]

OMG The Last Unicorn!! I keep thinking cartoons for some reason but I guess I watched alot of them growing up.

Seconded! Along with Braveheart of course.

[adiapalic]

JaneinMarch - I cannot believe you mentioned Legend! I love that movie! I didn't mention it because I figured nobody would know what I was talking about.

I absolutely adore that movie. So that's two with Unicorns here. :)

YES!!! My sister and I would always argue which one we got to designate ourselves as in our mental fantasy world. Of course the blue centaur was always the most popular, but that's just because she had a good part of the storyline!:D

Now if I could only get some comb-wielding cherubs!
http://jjonesmanning.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/centaurs1.jpg

[QueenAnne'sLace]

Nicole Kidman's hair in Far and Away. She plays an Irish immigrant and the curls are out of this world. I think it's pretty close to what her hair was naturally before Hollywood got a hold of it.

http://i.rollingstone.com/assets/rs/96/73012/images/87317_lg.jpg

[Arkady]

Another vote here for LOTR - specifically the Two Towers; Eowyn was always one of my favourite characters. I know none of the long hair was real, but the wigs were certainly very realistic.

I was most disappointed the first time I saw Viggo Mortensen out of costume; he suits long hair much better than short! Then again, I feel most long hair suits most people better than short anyway. I could be considered a little biased though. ;)

[Cindi Eponabri]

Lord of the Rings and Mists of Avalon. I even bought a Legalos doll because of his hair....

[peachrose]

Mine is not a movie but a TV serial. It's Northern Exposure. There's lots of long natural hair, loose and braided. The character of Marilyn Whirlwind has gorgeous hair. I love her hairstyles especially in the epizode Learning Curve, it's the one when she goes to Seattle on vacation.

My husband went through a phase of being very into Northern Exposure and naturally I watched some too. He watched over 100 episodes in a month or so, I noticed the hair was lovely!

[redneckprincess]

The young girl (Astrid) from White Oleander....now I dont know if they used wigs or made the movie over a 5 year period or what, but I love the cut she gives herself (very tempting, lol) and watching it grow long again

[Shiva]

My husband went through a phase of being very into Northern Exposure and naturally I watched some too. He watched over 100 episodes in a month or so, I noticed the hair was lovely!
That is my favorite TV series ever. I totally forgot about all the Native Long Hairs in that.

:)

[Zindell]

Lord of the Rings!

[zombi]

More votes for Practical Magic & Mists of Avalon --

pre-code Hollywood movies like Night Nurse, Three on a Match, Red-headed Woman, & Our Dancing Daughters are TOTAL hair (and clothing, and makeup...) movies for me, too.

[noelgirl]

I just saw Love Happens last night, and Frances Conroy, who plays the mother of Jennifer Aniston's character, has gorgeous long hair. She was only in one scene, so I didn't get a good look, but she had a braid that was at least to her waist! No idea whether it was real, in other pictures I've seen of Frances, she has long hair but not quite that long.

[Ravenwaves 88]

YES!!! My sister and I would always argue which one we got to designate ourselves as in our mental fantasy world. Of course the blue centaur was always the most popular, but that's just because she had a good part of the storyline!:D

http://jjonesmanning.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/centaurs1.jpg

Merewen- Fantasia is an excellent reference.

Queen Anne - I would also pretend to be these gorgeous creatures with my schoolmates. I don't recall which colors we coveted.

My next input would be Mrs. Doubfire. The daughter had tailbone length and I'm pretty sure it was real!

[Gabriel]

Aww the Fantasia movie! I remember seeing that as a child and wondering if they were hurting her head as they combed her hair lol.

Practical Magic
Tomb Raider Movies
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon

[ooo]

for me it must be ariel and sisi

[CaraLynn]

I cast my vote for "The Princess Bride"!!



http://princessbride.8m.com/016.jpg

http://princessbride.8m.com/009.JPG

[sexyjacksparrow]

I'd have to say Ever After and Stardust which have both already been mentioned.

Also A Knight's Tale
http://img5.allocine.fr/acmedia/medias/nmedia/00/02/30/87/ch5.jpg

[amnicare]

I like Practical Magic too, but I was thinking that probably wasn't Sandra Bullock's real hair. The scenes where it was the longest. Especially the scene where she is running on the street towards her husband.
I was thinking the same thing about Ever After. Nice but fake.
Does anyone know?

[myotislucifugus]

I think it actually is her real hair, and possibly Nicole Kidman's too. Sandra Bullock has always kept around BSL length hair, and with contracts signed almost a year in advance, she'd have had plenty of time to get to waistish, which is what she it in the movie. I've noticed her hair is pretty thick anyway, so that would account for length taken up in updos (I think just the twist one...)

[Isa-belle]

Not a movie, but I've really been enjoying the hair in the new English series on the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood - Desperate Romantics. :inlove:

[JamieLeigh]

I love the Lord of the Rings movies. Even though most of the hair is fake, it still looks amazing and inspires me to let my waves show! :crush: And also the lady's maid Christiana in A Knight's Tale has awesome long hair. :D

[florenonite]

I like to think of the hair in LotR as real, because it's wigs made of real hair :p

[Olivia23]

I had to come back to this thread to say Stephen King's "Sleepwalkers"!!! I'm watching it now and completely forgot about the mother in this movie has awesome hair! I know the movie is a little on the freaky side though LOL.

Here is a photo of her in Sleepwalkers.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/wnddyer/perlmanalicekrigesleepwalker175.jpg

[amnicare]

you're probably right :)

[Sister13]

Valley of the Dolls has killer hair!

[Taika]

Mamma mia!! -the movie.... the hair of Amanda Seyfried= sophie....

http://www.thehollywoodnews.com/artman2/uploads/1/amanda-seyfried_1.jpg <- Idont know if her hair is real or not, but it is gorgerous!!!:heartbeat

It definitely is. She plays in Big Love, too. Gorgeous hair indeed.

[Little_Bird]

In practical magic, is that Nicole Kidman?? Beautyfull :D:D :thud:

My fav hair movies have to be disney's too. Specially Pocahontas, Little Mermaid BUT most of all...

Sleeping Beauty :) she's my hair idol :D:D:D:D:D

[Mutinous]

Not quite a movie, but I have always loved Britney Spears' hair in her Oops I Did It Again video. I realise its fake (alas!) but I love the way it was parted at the front.

http://www.zodcaps.com/moviepics/b/britney_spears_(video_oops_i_did_it_again).jpg (http://www.zodcaps.com/moviepics/b/britney_spears_%28video_oops_i_did_it_again%29.jpg )

[QueenAnne'sLace]

A second on that!! I'd add that I enjoyed Ed's hair as well. His character is also very sweet.
Chris the radio guy also has some sweet long hair at some point too. Just had to put a good word in for the guys!

[QueenAnne'sLace]

Oh, and Guinevere's in First Knight. (Well, essentially Guinevere has awesome hair in just about any Camelot/Arthur movie)!

[jasper]

I just went to see Bright Star last night. I just kept thinking that nobody's hair was long enough!

[JCFantasy23]

Not a movie, but I've been rewatching DVDs of Dallas recently and despite all the hair changes some go through, the show seems to focus a lot on hair.

I especially LOVE Charlenes hair:


And Mary Crosby, who played Kristin. I just kept staring at her hair and missing the rest of the scenes. :p

http://therebelprince.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/dallass32_2.jpg

What's really cool, and surprised me, is seeing this picture from just last year, where she has apparently kept her hair a pretty good length ;)

http://www1.pictures.gi.zimbio.com/30th+Anniversary+Reunion+Dallas+TV+Show+WMSo70eppm hl.jpg


For movies, this and long hair always stood out for me:

Braveheart -
http://l.yimg.com/eb/ymv/us/img/hv/photo/movie_pix/paramount_pictures/braveheart/_group_photos/catherine_mccormack2.jpg

[ponyboy]

How about an oldie: Zabriske Point (Daria Halprin), and a little newer: Tuff Turf (Kim Richards).

[Kris Dove]

Fionnula Flanagan in The Others had lovely long white hair!

[merseaone]

Victorian, regency, costume, and period movies..... yep, even Jane Austen movies!

[freecelt]

For a length shot Definitely Braveheart for style Gone with the wind *sighs* I just can't quite get my hair to do that!

[LuXious]

"Pretty Woman" and "Wuthering Heights" (with Juliette Binoche). I like thick, darker, natural 90's long hair. "Mississippi Masala", too.

[ericthegreat]

Definitely Sophia Myles's hair in Tristan & Isolde. Her portrayal of Isolde was brilliant, and I really loved all the intricate braids and updo styles the hairstylists in the movie crafted for her. The styles went well with the clothing and time period, you really could see Sophia as an Irish princess. From what I understand she was wearing a wig, but nonetheless it was a very good looking wig. It was a gorgeous shade of blonde, wonderfully thick, curly, and fell a little past TB length on Sophia.

James Franco's hair also looked awesome in this movie, since it was only shoulder length with lots of shaggy layers I think he really did grow out his own hair for this movie.

[thunderlilies]

How about "Little Women"?

[BringMeThunder]

Practical Magic is so "hairspirational" to me; I can never decide whose hair I love more, and after watching it I feel ridiculously womanly and beautiful in my own hair. :o

The Last Unicorn, Fantasia, and Pocahontas all affected me as a child, furthering my love of long hair. Although it's not a movie, Xena too! And more recently, Stardust.

[LauraAlaina]

How about "Little Women"?

Definetely! I think when I was little I cried when she cut off her hair. haha!

BLUE LAGOON anyone???? brooke sheilds-ultimate hair goals!!

[LauraAlaina]

Has anyone seen the series "The White Queen"? She has some amazing perfectly long wavy hair. It's part of the reason I watch it haha.

[Komao]

I'd have to say Practical Magic (http://img.listal.com/image/107774/500full-practical-)... totally a hair movie

I also loved Practical Magic, & The Last of the Mohicans.

[merseaone]

Gone with the Wind.

[DollyDagger]

When i was little and it came on tv i always love watching James Bond "Live and Let Die". Jane Seymour as "Solitaire"..gorgeous hair! Shes always has great hair to this day.

[LauraAlaina]

The TV series Reign has some amazing hair in it (and clothes!)

[Cinnamonagouti]

The Lord of the Rings trilogy, of course :p

[alexis917]

I love LOTR and Tangled.

[Ania.]

I think Lord of the Rings has one of the most interesting hairstyles and some characters from Tim Burton's movies too, Mad Hatter for example :)

[missc1115]

Are there any other Poldark fans here? Aidan Turner's curly black 'do and Elinor Tomlinson's red unruly 'do are both great. They are not terribly long styles but cool nonetheless.

My favorite hair movie would have to be Smoke Signals.

[DollyDagger]

yes to Poldark! I also love the girls red hair (forgot her name already)

along same line-
any Outlander fans...the heroine has lovely shiny dark long curls

[LauraAlaina]

Who, Claire? She is gorgeous- I am so obsessed with those books and the series! Um, not to mention JAMIE'S RED CURLS. ugh, sigh... haha

[missc1115]

Yay, I'm glad to find some other Poldark fans! The redheaded character is Demelza Carne, as played by Elinor Tomlinson.

[yahirwaO.o]

Probably most '70's movies where the guys & gals all had long, shaggy hair. :cool:

Yeah, I really love watching mid-late 60's and all 70's movies just for the sake of nice pretty long hair. Another vote for 60's Romeo and Juliet, and Valley of Dolls!!!!

This may sound weird but I also love all 70's good or bad horror movies (Those girls with dreamy long hair out of a gothic dream), and somehow Suspiria from Dario Argento (with lots of 70's perms, but still) I like it :p

[DaniJoy]

For movies Lord of the Rings and the one scene in The Labrynth where she is dancing with David Bowie in the bubble.

Tv series some interesting braided updo's on Star Trek the next gen and Game of Thrones has beautiful long hair that makes me swoon.

[DollyDagger]

noone said the movie "hair"...lol
the song has gotta to be on our top 10 for anthems though

"Give me a head with hair, long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen
Give me down to there, hair, shoulder length or longer
Here baby, there, momma, everywhere, daddy, daddy

Hair, flow it, show it
Long as God can grow, my hair

[PalomaSincera]

Braveheart and The Legends of the Fall. Julia Ormonds hair!!!

[Entangled]

It was mentioned earlier, but First Knight. Guinevere's hair was beautiful.

[Jennah]

I love Christine´s hair (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MSmSvGy1OMQ/UVwmYZyX0lI/AAAAAAAAH4s/-sBQAwADFcU/s640/Emmy%20Rossum%20as%20Christine%20Daae%20in%20The%2 0Phantom%20of%20the%20Opera%20(2004).3.jpg), in the Phantom of the Opera. :crush: (pic (http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/slowburnx/default/christine-phantom-opera-emmy-rossum--large-msg-129600355774.jpg)) (pic (http://www.phantomess.com/images/moviechristine/masquerade/masquerade.jpg))

[Fericera]

My SO likes to watch old martial arts movies (Bruce Lee etc.), and many of the women have amazing updos and the occasional long braid worn down. I can't wait to try some of them once my hair gets longer!

I also love the hair in Interview With a Vampire. There's some long haired men for a change, with Lestat and Louis. Then there's Claudia's curls, several bit characters with interesting styles, and its a great movie in general.

As for TV shows, I don't regularly watch many, but I enjoy all the Youtube tutorials inspired by Game of Thrones, and Vikings.

[Arciela]

Ever After :)

[DollyDagger]

i watched "practical magic" thnx for the reminder ..:) it is such a great hair movie..i nearly want to watch it again even!
sidenote-Nicole kidman was on jimmy kimmel just recently and her hair (and she..:P) looked so amazing. It was really long and darker than usual. LIke a dark goldeny-strawberry blonde (close to her natural )kind of..i wonder if it was extension or a wig. I havent seen her with such long hair for a while!

[parkmikii]

Most of the historical Korean dramas. I love their binyeo and the hairstyles.

[Christine_O]

Returning to the cartoons, I've watched Brave a couple of extra times just for the hair.
