TV shows and movie Characters as hair inspiration

[sakuraemily]

I saw some people here on LHC mention Sailor moon as a good hair inspiration and so I started watching it.
I love it! Usagi inspired me to keep on.
Which are your favourite characters who inspire you to work on with your hair?

[born_confused90]

For me, as you may be able to tell (<<) it's Tomoyo from CardCaptor Sakura, but it's not that she does anything amazing with her hair, it's just that her hair is always amazing :)

[sakuraemily]

I love Tomoyo too.

[born_confused90]

Yay! I adore her :) So cute

[monsterna]

Anne Boleyn from The Tudors inspired me to finally grow my hair out for good. Also Katherine Howard from the same show.

[Kaya]

Katara from 'Avatar: The Last Airbender.' (The cartoon, not the movie.) She is one of the main reasons I want to grow my hair out. Her hair is absolutely gorgeous. :inlove: Not to mention I can cosplay her better with longer hair!

[ddiana1979]

Nina Dobrev as Elena & Katherine from The Vampire Diaries.

Sandra Bullock as Sally Owens in Practical Magic.

Catherine Zeta Jones in. . . well, pretty much everything.

[abbatabba1137]

For me, growing up watching Princess type movies just fueled my love for long hair, but the two that really sealed the deal for me are Princess Buttercup from the Princess Bride(both book and movie) and Morgaine from TNT's: The Mists of Avalon. Although, my hair will never be that dark, my hair takes well to curls!

[born_confused90]

also, morgana from merlin. I love all the intricate styles she had done, but i can't find a guide or reference to them anywhere so i want to get really good and familiar with techniques that 1 day i'll be able to look back at the series and figure out how they're done instantly!

[Maddy_T]

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< ;)

[honeyblonde]

I remember watching "The Big Valley" reruns when I was a kid!! I was just fascinated with Linda Evens!! I thought she had the most beautiful hair ever!! She was my idol, I wanted to be just like her!!

[Becky Safari]

Growing up with the Disney princesses sure did put a sway on my perception of what hair to crave!

[Maddy_T]

Growing up with the Disney princesses sure did put a sway on my perception of what hair to crave!
^^ TOTALLY..... I always wanted either Ariels hair or Aurora's!

[ladylovecraft]

I've swooned over Sephiroth's classic length silver hair of FFVII for most of my life... hehe. :heartbeat And the Advent Children movie just made it worse tenfold!

[patienceneeded]

Claire Danes in "Stardust." Both Claire and her hair are just beautiful.

[Laur]

Pretty much any good fantasy hair, especially the paintings (http://www.jwwaterhouse.com/paintings/)by John William Waterhouse, which aren't TV or Movies but are pretty inspiring IMO! And, of course, the Lord of the Rings (books, movies, fan art, etc.)

[Silverdragn7385]

I don't have one particular character that's an inspiration...but there are a lot of anime girls that have what I want, but I don't know if it would look right IRL: Having waist length (or longer) straight hair, but have pieces in the front that sit at the chest. Like this:

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/Silverdragon7385/Mio_Akiyama_by_Pas1990.jpg

[Silverdragn7385]

I've swooned over Sephiroth's classic length silver hair of FFVII for most of my life... hehe. :heartbeat And the Advent Children movie just made it worse tenfold!

Sephy hair. Yes. :3

[vanity_acefake]

Lily Munster and Morticia Adams.

[trillcat]

I permed my hair into the depths of hell trying to get Daryl Hanna's hair in "Splash"
It never happened.
I just watched it again a few days ago on TV, still awesome hair, still jealous of it.

[mellie]

So true Trillcat!! I swooned over her hair!!

Of course Lord of the Rings for me...and Legend of the Seeker.

[catiebloo]

Oh Sandra Bullock's hair in pretty much anything she does, particularly Practical Magic though. She has the most perfect head of hair ever.

Also agree with Anne Boleyn from Showtime's The Tudors, it's so beautiful & luscious & shiny!!

Others for me are...

Barbara Streisand's in Funny Girl (long & short)
Clare Dane's in Stardust
Anything from HBO's Rome

[Messyhair]

I don't have one particular character that's an inspiration...but there are a lot of anime girls that have what I want, but I don't know if it would look right IRL: Having waist length (or longer) straight hair, but have pieces in the front that sit at the chest. Like this:

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/Silverdragon7385/Mio_Akiyama_by_Pas1990.jpg

It actually looks nice IRL, or I think so anyway. I had something similar when my hair was long because I wanted to get some shorter hair to better frame my face. Mine were about shoulder length while the rest was at waist, so it's similar to the pic you have, but shorter all around. :) Oh, but I didn't have bangs, and most anime characters do. :p

[eshta]

Kahlan from The sword of truth books. A former co-worker used to call me Kahlan, when I asked what it meant he leant me the first book in the series. I was already growing my hair long but that keeps me motivated.

Funny thing is his name was Richard (and no he wasn't interested in me .... or women at all ;)) Apart from my green eyes I don't see a lot of resemblance, but found it very flattering.

LOL THIS!

I also LOVE the Elfquest comics, the evil elf chick Winnowill(sp?) has uber long hair. Another cartoon that inspired me was Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust. The character Charlotte's hair

[Dreamkitty]

Brooke Shields in Blue Lagoon, I know her hair was a wig but still it looked amazing on her:D.

Drew Barrymore's long fake hair in Cinderalla.

Nina Dobrev has gorgeous silky hair.

Disney Princesses- Pocohuntas, Ariel, Jasmine.

[Jeno86]

Lian Nichang from The Bride With White Hair. I saw this when I was much younger (probably not appropriate but oh well) and fell in love with super long hair. This is probably also the reason I want white hair....and would love to be able to use my hair like a whip.

[sakuraemily]

Nina Dobrev as Elena & Katherine from The Vampire Diaries.

Sandra Bullock as Sally Owens in Practical Magic.

Catherine Zeta Jones in. . . well, pretty much everything.

Yeah, Catherine Zeta-Jones is supposed to have naturally lovely hair.

[varintalonguard]

Elves in general. Lord of The Rings Elves have such awesome hair. Also Zooey Deschanel in the Tin Man.

Mmm....and to cement my place as a true nerd I will leave you with...drum roll please...Nightwing from the animated batman series...:D

[abbatabba1137]

She is not really a character, but on Wheel of Forture tonight, one of the girls that won has hip-ish long hair! It was super shiny and very pretty. She wore it loose and straight...

[Yamainu]

Sailor Moon, of course, but also Morgana from Merlin - I spent most of the scenes with her in them distracted by her hair, clothes or jewelry. So purty!!!

[Endymion's_Star]

it was this one that did it for me! :)

http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://www.opendemocracy.net/content/articles/2864/images/Bird-Howl-and-Sophie.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.opendemocracy.net/arts-Film/miyazaki_2864.jsp&usg=__4KzJzIM-cRFmSQI8GSrfrk4-q7U=&h=414&w=565&sz=43&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=yZvSmPmpSC-rhM:&tbnh=132&tbnw=152&ei=dfNcTfCvLcuUOo3Z7Z0L&prev=/images&#37;3Fq%3Dhowl%2527s%2Bmoving%2Bcastle%2Bsophie %26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dsafari%26sa%3DN%26r ls%3Den%26biw%3D1362%26bih%3D905%26tbs%3Disch:1&um=1&itbs=1&iact=rc&dur=317&oei=PvNcTd71HcKW4AadtcneCg&page=1&ndsp=34&ved=1t:429,r:6,s:0&tx=82&ty=56

[Endymion's_Star]

Pah... Annoying link disappeared!

ANYWAY... it was from Howls Moving Castle. Sophie, as her young self, with the grey braid from near the end of the film :)

I thought it was lovely to see a YOUNG woman with silver hair. I am always a little bit anxious that when I give up my dye, people are going to think me very odd...

[hanne jensen]

Janeway's hair in Star Trek: Voyager, season 1, Message in a Bottle. That scene where she's in her nightie withe her hair down--WOW!

[BabyRay33]

Sailor Moon, and Kate Beckinsale. She has nice thick glossy brown hair. Although I heard she went blond recently?!

[lokiveil]

Jingai Makyo, except a bit darker;)

[kouran]

I was inspired by Kanoe of Clamp's anime/manga X 1999. http://gallery.minitokyo.net/view/12849

[homeschoolmama]

When I was a little girl, I wanted hair just like Mary's from Little House on the Prairie.

As I got older it was Jane Seymour's hair from Dr. Quinn that inspired me to work on improving AND growing mine out.

Now... I look forward to having a big, fat, beautiful silver braid trailing down my back. It'll be decades before my hair changes, but I've seen this on a few people (in real life AND movies) and that's my eventual goal.

[Tutti_Frutti]

Emily Procter's hair from CSI Miami is one of my inspirations!

[IStand4u]

Deffinately Emmy Rossum in Phantom of the Opera, her hair is amazing!!! Her curls are so beautiful as well!

Disney princesses of course, especially Ariel from The Little Mermaid and Kida from Atlantis: The Lost Empire.

There is also Anne of Green Gables, when her hair is longer and she's gone to school to become a teacher... LOVE her hair.

[MoonlightShadow]

Kikyo from Inuyasha :)
i love her long thick hair

[Pyvsi]

Well it's a bit of a moot point now that I'm a lock-head, but I used to crave Rudy Huxtable's hair from the Cosby show- especially when she was about 11 years old. Wow

[tyrant1100]

I also LOVE the Elfquest comics, the evil elf chick Winnowill(sp?) has uber long hair. Another cartoon that inspired me was Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust. The character Charlotte's hair

2nded. I've been reading the Elfquest series since I was a kid. I could never decide if I was more inspired by Winnowill's floor length (and then some) black hair or Clearbrook's slightly more reasonable (knee) length silvers. Honestly, pretty much the entire character population of that series could serve as inspiration. I don't think Wendy Pini knows how to draw ugly hair.

On topic, I always adored Olivia de Havilland's hair in The Heirress. No clue if it's all real, but it's lovely. Especially the style she starts wearing regularily after her character visits France. Also, who doesn't love Princess Leia and Amadala's hairstyles in the Star Wars franchise?

[Mírien]

My first inspiration was Arwen from LOTR. I know that was just a wig but those waves looked so romantic - especially in comparison to all those straight-haired elvish folks... :p

[catiebloo]

Oh Michelle Pfeiffer's hair in Stardust, when it's long, blonde & wavy with twinkly gold strands threaded through it. Lovely!

[pennyroyal]

Kate Winslet always has gorgeous hair but my favorite is the way it was in Titanic. So lovely. That red was amazing! I would love to have that hair but down to my knees. :p Her hair in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was also one of my very favorites. Those colors were just gorgeous! Especially the blue. I would also love that hair but down to my knees.

[sakuraemily]

Again a sailor moon, but, Rei's hair is also amazing.
This is a bit out of topic but has anyone noticed how amazing Selena Gomez's hair used to be in the beginning of Wizards at Waverly? Of course it was all treated but it had a little extra something to it, if you can get what I'm trying to say. But, nowadays its gone.

[justgreen]

Emily Procter (http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z274/Caudill52779/Women/Emily%2520Procter/85847_Emily_Procter_03_122_734lo.jpg&imgrefurl=http://fishingnetwork.net/forum4/showthread.php%3F48579-Horatio-says-No-Fishing&usg=__p9fc912jdzc438E2OGa--iOMwII=&h=1024&w=805&sz=119&hl=en&start=33&zoom=1&tbnid=C2LzcjxHuuF_tM:&tbnh=134&tbnw=91&ei=o7ZjTbriG4i2sAP0loHTCA&prev=/images%3Fq%3Demily%2Bprocter%2Bdue%2Bdate%26um%3D1 %26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1280%26bih%3D709%26tbs %3Disch:10,600&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=398&vpy=343&dur=132&hovh=253&hovw=199&tx=116&ty=128&oei=ArZjTa2lA4HCsAOutb26CA&page=2&ndsp=33&ved=1t:429,r:19,s:33&biw=1280&bih=709), from CSI Miami.

[Kherome]

Don't laugh at me...

I was (years ago) persuaded to regrow my shortyshortshort hair by the show "Xena" :o

I love Hudson Leick, AKA Callisto. I wanted hair like that. My hair, though I don't FEEL like it is, is actually longer than hers now.:D

ETA: here is a youtube link that shows her beautiful hair! Um, turn the volume off. LOL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Sca8A_6MNw

ETA2: You know I haven't seen the show in years, and going back to look at some screen shots online now, I'm surprised to see that they really only had BSL to MAYBE WL hair. I guess back in the day, when I had very little hair that seemed SOOO long.

[Zefyra]

Queen Serenity, Galaxia! Heheh. Sailor Moon owns. Basically anytime I see long blond hair its an inspiration...

[HuggyBear]

She-Ra, Princess of Power has awesome hair. I love how her hair grows instantly when Princess Adora turns into She-Ra. Now, that's some great powers, right there. :D

[sneakybea]

Two Helena Bonham-Carter characters: Lucy Honeychurch in Room with a View, and Ophelia in Hamlet.
Actually, once I was wearing my hair in a Gibson Girl bun while watching the former, and my mom came in and said "She has your hair!" So I'm a little biased.
Also, if anyone remembers the '80s sitcom "Head of the Class," the character Simone had beautiful long red curls.

[Prettychild]

Padme from Star Wars. Look at my avatar, pretty dead giveaway. Also Alicia Witt in Dark Kingdom. I am trying to get a pic from the movie but can't find one.

On a funny note: I love Sephyroth's hair (Final Fantasy). I know Sephy is a male character, but...

[terpentyna]

also, morgana from merlin. I love all the intricate styles she had done, but i can't find a guide or reference to them anywhere so i want to get really good and familiar with techniques that 1 day i'll be able to look back at the series and figure out how they're done instantly!

same here!

[SwordWomanRiona]

Lord of the Rings!!!!! Everyone has such beautiful hair, especially the Elves and the Rohirrim. I love Gandalf's hair too :D
And Orlando. It's possible many of you don't know about this film, it's not very popular, but Tilda Swinton has such gorgeous red hair in there!!

[Vanilla Mint]

I am guilty of drawing eternal inspiration from shoujo manga characters. I especially love blunt bangs with long hair (as evident from my default!)

[kanzer]

Alicia Silverstone in Clueless! I used to watch it over and over and over in my teens :) I think I may have reached that length now, finally! My colour used to be on the warmer side of hers but it's darkened quite a bit now.

And more recently Spencer Hastings (Troian Bellisario) in Pretty Little Liars. She always has such cool updos!

[sweetiepie]

My inspiration for a while were the girls from Pretty Little Liars. That show's hairstylist is gold.

[Ais]

A lot of anime and manga girls have the most beautiful hair evar :D Probably had a massive influence on my love of super long hair. Also growing up with the Disney Princesses.. I always wanted Jasmines! So thick..

[pennyroyal]

I also always loved Winona Ryder's hair (Mina) in Bram Stoker's Dracula. Sooooo beautiful!

[aurorabridge]

Nynaeve from the Wheel of Time book series inspired me to start growing.

[lillyofthecelts]

I was originally inspired to grow my hair out by some "gothy" characters and people. Some examples are Lily Munster from "The Munsters", Morticia Adams from the original "Adams Family" TV show, and a lovely Swedish goth model named Adora Batbrat who has wildly colored hair that I love, but somehow managed to keep good length too ( here is her blog to see her picture http://adorabatbrat.blogspot.com/ ).

[Vanessa Arthur]

I saw some people here on LHC mention Sailor moon as a good hair inspiration and so I started watching it.
I love it! Usagi inspired me to keep on.
Which are your favourite characters who inspire you to work on with your hair?


Haha, Sailor moon was on of my insperations too! Hey that masked man w/the rose is Hot huh?!

[NouvelleNymphe2]

i've never really thought about it. i just saw a really great movie "Les femmes du sixième étage" and the main character had lovely hair!

[Vintagecoilylocks]

The Lady who was "Light" in The Blue Bird. Shirley Temple movie. When I was little.
Lady Marion in The 1930's Robinhood. and again 2010.
The Lady Guinivere, in "First Knight" with Richard Gere
Taryn Powell in Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger also with a very young Jane Seymour .
Lilian Gish in Way down East
Eowyn in Lord of the Rings the Two Towers.

[Taur5684]

oh wow, so many....
As I've said before in another thread, my original inspiration was Pocahontas from Disney's movie (oh how it flowed in the wind!).
Since then, I've seen lots of art that featured beautiful long hair. Particularly in anime related art, as many of those pieces tend to really use the lines and movement that hair can provide to its fullest extent. I can name many anime women that have hair I would kill for lol
One character I'll mention because even though she's supposed to be more normal (ie: her hair actually obeys the laws of gravity, and that's saying a lot for an anime character lol Her hair is pink but it doesn't go flying every time she turns her head a little), I just love the shape of her hair - it's long and thick with a little curl at the end...so pretty :-) This isn't the greatest picture, but you get the idea
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/TheIceQueen/lucky_star_main_characters2.png
Miyuki from "Lucky Star"

[Yamainu]

Haha, last night I was at my local Cherokee meeting, and one of the topics of our speaker was Native American portrayal in media, at one point showing a picture of Disney's Pocahontas. Leading to a long discussion amongst the women about how we wanted her hair. :D

[Luna12345]

The girl name Chelsea Daniels from THAT'S SO RAVEN.
She has very beautiful and healthy looking hair.

[monsterna]

I also always liked the mother's hair in La Gloire de Mon Pere (My Father's Glory).

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y98/meganownsyou/gloire-de-mon-pere-la-145721.jpg

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y98/meganownsyou/gloire_de_mon_pere_1989_reference.jpg

[jlw9222]

There are a few characters that inspire my hair goals. :) I think it's safe to say the majority of characters from Lord of the Rings and Princess Tamina from Prince of Persia (the movie).

[sakuraemily]

Haha, Sailor moon was on of my insperations too! Hey that masked man w/the rose is Hot huh?!

Totally!!! He is drool-worthy!

[Taur5684]

I think it's safe to say the majority of characters from Lord of the Rings

Ha! LOtR was the movie (well, specifically Legolas :eyebrows:) that showed me that some real live men (as opposed to animated characters) can in fact pull off long hair. Yes, I'm aware that Orlando Bloom was wearing a wig or something...but it looked great, and that's more then I think I would have expected before that (I'm sorry to say that the only men I've ever seen in real life with long hair did not take care of it - often very dirty and looking as though most of it has broken or fallen out. I'm glad to see the men on this forum who take care of their hair! Go you! :cheese: )

[pennyroyal]

Drew Barrymore's hair in 50 First Dates is sooooooo pretty & somewhat long for an actress-past BSL i think. I adore her hair in that movie!

Galadriel's hair in LOtR is beyond amazing.

[Fingolphin]

LOTR, Anne of Green Gables, and Rurouni Kenshin (Kenshin's thick red hair!).

[Angeldances]

Brook sheilds in Blue Lagoon and Laura Croft's braid!

[Scarlet_Heart]

I was (years ago) persuaded to regrow my shortyshortshort hair by the show "Xena" :o

I love Hudson Leick, AKA Callisto.


Omigosh, I loved Callisto! I thought she was so cool.

But I wanted to post for my hairspiration:

Winnie Cooper from The Wonder Years:

http://www.heartlessdoll.com/winniecooper.bmp
http://i55.tinypic.com/4rc685.jpg

[ouseljay]

Isabella of Angoulême from the 2010 Robin Hood with Russell Crowe. Her hair is just gorgeous and I would love it if my hair looked like that. It's somewhere past waist length, and I love the color and texture. (I wish there were better pictures, but these are the only ones I can find, gah! At least they pretty much show what I mean about her hair.)

[jesis]

Eclair from Kiddy Grade, and although I'll never have green hair, C2 from Code Geass. :)

[annsue83]

most of my inspiration comes from my favourite youtube gurus such as ilovegerardo....i simply adore her hair!!

[jesis]

LOTR, Anne of Green Gables, and Rurouni Kenshin (Kenshin's thick red hair!).

Yay Kenshin! I love his hair as well. :)

ETA: And Kaoru and Misao!

[Fingolphin]

Yay Kenshin! I love his hair as well. :)

ETA: And Kaoru and Misao!

Yeah, they ALL have great hair! ;)

[long&blonde]

Darryl Hannah in the movie Splash. Seane Corn (Yoga Instructor) and Sophie B. Hawkins; in the dynamite video of "Damn, Wish I was your lover", she does with Melissa Etheridge.

[Annie Fulton]

1. Buttercup from the Princess Bride
2. Topanga from Boy Meets World (I LOVE her hair! I saw a thread about her around here somewhere...)
3. Alex Munday from Charlie's Angels
4. Tarja Turunen from Nightwish (never a hair out of place!)

[Madora]

Morticia Addams w/o a doubt! Carolyn Jones wore a wig, of course, but it looked so natural. You believed it was her gorgeous, sleek black hair (with just a touch of curl). I loved that show!

Also loved the inscrutable Cousin Itt! What head of hair..and how good it looked. Nice and THICK and healthy..down to the ground!

[Valdeon]

The first time I thought that having long hair might be cool is when I saw Emma from H20 Just Add Water. Her hair wasn't even that long (somewhere belong BSL and waist) but I admired it anyway. For now I would say Boy Meets World and the incredible Topanga.

Yes, I know I am a big kid at heart :o

[Scarlet_Heart]

Oh yea! I forgot about Topanga but she is one for sure!

So ok, Winny from The Wonder Years and Topanga.

[KahlanAmnell]

LOL I see a few people already mentioned some of my favorite character hair already. Kahlan from the Sword of Truth books, Buttercup from the Princess Bride, Julia Ormond from First Knight, Piper from Charmed, and any of the ladies from Lord of the Rings.

[SnowWhite]

Julia Ormond - First Knight
Catherine Zeta Jones - Mask of Zorro!
Keira Knightley - Pride & Prejudice (although it was a wig)
Charity Wakefield (Marianne) - Sense & Sensibility 2008 series.

[Amethyste]

The first time I really WANTED to have long hair was because of Sarah Brightman. Her hair on the cover release "La Luna" is do die for... wow. I know they are extensions, and she still has extensions to this day, nonetheless, it triggered the desire to grow my hair longer. Oh... I wish I had her voice! :)

[Dragon Faery]

When I was little, no TV allowed. So: Rapunzel from a coloring book, Sleeping Beauty from a fairy tale collection with awesome pictures, Laura Ingalls' grown-up hair (her daughter wrote of it as being about ankle or heel length and worn in one thick braid down her back).
From the occasional movies we watched: Ariel (Little Mermaid), Princess Leia (probably my main subconscious inspiration).
From more recent years: Mother Gothel in Tangled (I can only dream of such amazing curls), the leading lady in John Carter (I forget her name and half the plot because I spent the entire movie drooling over her amazing hair jewelry).

[Bagginslover]

Arwen in Lord of the Rings, and Lara Croft in Tomb Raider.

Both beautiful longhairs, even if they are both sporting wigs/hair pieces.

[shutterpillar]

Janeway's hair in Star Trek: Voyager, season 1, Message in a Bottle. That scene where she's in her nightie withe her hair down--WOW!

Ditto this. I always loved Janeway's hair and was SO bummed when she cut it.

Add me to the fans of Buttercup in Princess Bride. :)

When I was a little girl I always wanted hair like Pocahontas. She was just the ultimate package for me. I loved her.

OH! and let's not forget about Topanga from Boy Meets World. I have ALWAYS envied her hair! Especially in the earlier seasons.

[AdaClare]

For me it's Eowyn (LOTR) and Rapunzel (Tangled). My hair's actually pretty similar to to Eowyn's when I have braid waves, except mine's a shade or two darker. ^.^

[writer_mom]

Oh totally! I see a lot of hairstyles on the TV that I like, many of them in anime :D . I love a lot of them but know I am far from ever getting those looks. I still like to look at them though.
As for doing any of them (if I could) I probably won't because I am a shy girl most of the time.

[Springgrl]

Definitely Galadriel for me.

I have always been told I look like her, so naturally, I try on a daily basis haha!!! I have had long hair my whole life, but when I get a strong urge to cut it I think of Galadriel. This always makes me change my mind!

Oh... and of course the Disney princesses :)

[Kinkycurlygurl]

I love all the fancy braids in A Game of Thrones. I can't wait until my hair is long enough for Red Waste Braids! PS, I'm loving those crazy, red kinks and curls on that little princess in Brave.

[kallarina]

Pocahontas!!!

http://sakura-disney.blogspot.com/2011/11/pocahontas-disney-gp04.html


Not sure if I even managed to post a picture correctly, but... Pocahontas!

[humble_knight]

After watching the trailer for The Hobbit, I feel inspired to grow a beard. I hope the kiddies won't be too afraid of me :mrt:

[Micayla47]

i can't think of any tv actresses, but isabelle adjani in "nosferatu" and "diabolique", and monica bellucci in "dracula" and "passion of the christ". :)

[boudica]

Love 'Game of Thrones'. Their hair is so long, and they do so many creative things with braids!

[sfgirl]

I have a lot of hair inspirations, but anime wise I love boton (sp?) from yu yu hakasho! :)

Ooh do!! Then you can braid it dwarf style too!

Haha! My brother wants to do this with a beard, but his wife won't let him.

[PurplePenguin]

Rose McGowan in Charmed had pretty hair, Drew Barrymore in 50 First Dates, Topanga had great hair, Xena and Gabrielle (even though it isn't that long), and the little chick from the new movie Brave. I don't usually find many characters that I really love hair wise because I tend to love red, curly (and I mean CURLY) hair more than anything else. There is actually a member on here whose hair I adore, it always amazes me that its completely natural, no dye at all.

[solitudinarian]

Haha, I used to loove Maddie's hair on Suite life, when she had that long blonde hair, omg I was soo jealous, hahaha. Now I'm a bit more mellow about it. Don't think I have a "hairspiration" :P

[rainbowslinky]

Guenevere in First Knight. Or really Guenevere in everything ever, but that's the one I remember as being the first time I really wanted long hair. In the beginning when she's playing kickball or whatever they call it, with her hands tied behind her back and her hair is just flowing along behind her, I knew I wanted that kind of hair.

[Hollyfire3]

Holly Marie Combs from Charmed inspires me! I LOVE her hair!

[Hollyfire3]

LOL I see a few people already mentioned some of my favorite character hair already. Kahlan from the Sword of Truth books, Buttercup from the Princess Bride, Julia Ormond from First Knight, Piper from Charmed, and any of the ladies from Lord of the Rings.

Piper from Charmed is my favorite, isn't her hair gorgeous?!

[Hollyfire3]

Totally!!! He is drool-worthy!

Yup, Darien is cool, if only her were blonde and blue-green eyed....Leo from Charmed reference.:D

[Hollyfire3]

My inspiration for a while were the girls from Pretty Little Liars. That show's hairstylist is gold.

But Ella's hair is the best!:D

[MoonlightShadow]

I love kikyo's hair from inuyasha... O.o

[Nedertane]

and the little chick from the new movie Brave.

Ooohhhhh, I LOVE her hair! Hehe, even though I'm very far from being a curly! :p And I have to admit, as laughably terrible as the movie itself was, there's a lot of really nice-looking loose and loosely styled hair in The Wickerman (the new one with Nicolas Cage, I mean lol).

[kidari]

I might have already posted this on this thread or a similar one but mine is Morticia Addams from the Addams Family. Hopefully in the next three or so years I can have hair pretty much exactly like hers but I'm going to have long bangs.

Morticia Addams, love her, love her hair.

[HobbitMopHead]

Sarah from Labyrinth (1986)
Vesper from Casino Royale 2006
Rinoa from Final Fantasy VIII

I also really liked Katniss's loose hair in The Hunger Games. I think I'm just a fan of dark, healthy, shiny brunette hair.

Its funny because when watching The Hunger Games, I realized Katiniss's hair looked pretty much JUST like mine on days its not very wavy, her braid is not nearly as thick as mine but the loose hair looks so similar, it scared me, because I wasn't even expecting it! You think you can hairtype her for me? Thickness/strand/wave pattern. As for beautiful brunnete hair, have you seen Piper from Charmed?

[Psyche]

I want Christina Hendricks' color.

Well, you already know how much I LOVE Piper....but this thread is just going to be full of that whenever somebody posts her picture or about her. Her hair is AMAZING! I don't care if her ponytail is only just over 3, her hair is silky, smooth, healthy looking and full with a slight wave to it. :D My dream....

[Tisiloves]

Aw! I'd love to see a real life braided dwarf beard! :(

Loepsie has a tutorial on how to do your hair Gimli beard style:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Eh-oNhGG4o&list=PLE2FA268ECAF422A3&index=4&feature=plpp_video

Just stick a cut out of the upper part of someone's face on the back of your head!:p

[millyaulait]

Ever since I was a little girl I've always been influenced by Disney & Sailor Moon characters.

Unimaginably thick, flowing, gravity-defying always perfect hair! :crush:

[Elistariel]

After watching the trailer for The Hobbit, I feel inspired to grow a beard. I hope the kiddies won't be too afraid of me :mrt:

This*
Obviously I can't grow a beard (nor would I want to :p) I have used the dwarves as inspiration for hairstyles already. You can see more of them in the hobbit vlogs on youtube. Basically their hairstyles seem to be combinations of English braids in symmetrical styles.

[Madora]

@Hollyfire3...

Thanks for the link to that lovely still of Maureen O'Hara from Lady Godiva!

[ravenheather]

I love Arwen's hair. Wig or not.

I might call Katniss's hair 2b M ii/iii. Then again it could all just be movie magic.
Piper has great hair, it was so smooth!

[Hollyfire3]

Nope, i think Katinss's hair is actually like that (well, the actress's hair) in real life, I studied it the whole movie and tried to find extentions, and we will never know the truth but it looked to be her actual hair. Piper DOES have great hair, the best IMO, its my dream (see avatar) so smooth and beautiful, wanna hair type her for me? (I am obssesed so I ask this to those who like her hair lol):)

[tinfoilsally]

Definitely, definitely agree with the Practical Magic nominations. Both SB and Nicole Kidman have the best hair in that film.
Otherwise- it's only shoulder length but I always loved Claire Danes' hair in My So-Called Life; Eowyn in LOTR; Kate Beckinsale and Liv Tyler's hair in real life... and Priness Aurora's hair in Sleeping Beauty is still my dream hair, even though it's impossible.

[oddelabop]

I agree..rapunzel from tangled...

And i know its no character but once i came across a photo of ex playbunny Debra Jo Fondren. Never seen such beautiful hair!

[MandyBeth]

Type O Negative, not extra long but that was a huge influence for me.

Sally from TNBC but my hair doesn't look good red. Dang.

[jacqueline101]

I like sailor moon.

[ladylowtide]

I am soo obsessed with tangled. I watched for the first time and then looked up stuff about growing your hair long. Ended up on LHC

[Beckstar]

Luna Lovegood.

[RisaMoe]

Cher - waaay back during the Sonny and Cher TV show. She had straight, shiny, gorgeous hair that hung to her hips.

I used to watch that show every week as a kid and think "someday I'll have hair like that".

[amanda_the_tall]

i'm watching alice in wonderland right now (the one with johnny depp in it) and i love her hair length and waves :)

[NaturalVegan]

Woo-hoo! It was very inspiring looking up a lot of these hair role models online using "Google Image" search to find photos. Pretty :)

I'm liking long hair more every day and noticing it out on the street a lot. I live in California so it's especially popular here for women of all ages.

Off to start a thread about photos specifically of long, thin/fine hair worn loose, straight and in great condition... :)

[Sugarjaye]

At the moment, my inspiration is the tv show 'Winx Club' Those girls have beautiful long hair, sigh.

[HintOfMint]

Basically the brunettes of Pretty Little Liars (Aria, Spencer, Emily), but it's mainly for the style, shine and placement of layers when I get them refreshed. Watching the show is enough to make me reach for a bottle of Pantene conditioner.

[lundmir]

Ariel's from the little mermaid, Wynona Ryder's both on Dracula and Little Women. I was very sad when she cut her hair! Also I'm re-watching Sailor Moon and I'm very envious.

Currently, I'm watching Knights of the Zodiac. Nearly everyone has long hair, too. Aghh look at him:
http://i.imgur.com/IQ9t3.jpg

I also very recently enjoyed Catherine, a videogame. One of the characters, Katherine, has gorgeous hair:

I think the best hair on there is Ella (Holly Marie Combs) but i love her to begin with...:D

[patienceneeded]

Claire Danes in Stardust, Robin Wright-Penn in Princess Bride.

[CaranDulin]

I love Arwen's hair. Wig or not.

Oh, yes. I absolutely love all the ladies' hair in Lord of the Rings. They're my inspiration. I suppose Legolas's hair was pretty, as well. :p

[quintanion]

I've been watching Merlin recently and love Morgana's hair in the show. Both the updos and the gorgeous loose curls when down. Game of Thrones is quite inspiring as well, as has been previously mentioned.

[brave]

I just got hooked on this show and am in love with Morgana's hair. Pitch black, perfectly wavey, and so silky.

I'm trying to remind myself that blond eyebrows and black hair do NOT go together.

[firegypsy]

Claire Danes in Stardust, Robin Wright-Penn in Princess Bride.


YES. I even liked Danes' hair in Romeo and Juliet.

[redeyedtreefr0g]

My hair inspirations from childhood must be Lady Amalthea from The Last Unicorn anime movie (I also LOVED the songs).
http://littlefaeriekingdom.tripod.com/images/last-unicorn/amalthea15.jpg http://littlefaeriekingdom.tripod.com/images/last-unicorn/amalthea18.jpg

Marina from Saban's Adventures of The Little Mermaid cartoon- watchable on Youtube HERE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVuExNTccl8)

Any Disney princess. My favorite is Ariel, but Jasmine's loose hair was also gorgeous.

[firegypsy]

The Last Unicorn was a total inspiration for me! I even tried to strip and dye my hair that color. Epic fail, but I wanted her hair!

[LaFlor]

Pocahontas... I got one of the barbies when I was little, which didn't help, lol.

[winteriscoming]

Right now it has to be Game of Thrones. I love Daenerys Targaryen's hair, it's so beautiful! :)

[MirrorOfErised]

So many!

All the girls in Little Women
Morticia and Wednesday Addams
Jasmine in Aladdin
Pochahontas
Old movie stars like Veronica Lake and Vivien Leigh
Jan Brady

And not a movie/tv star, but when I was a little girl I had a paper back copy of 101 Dalmations and I loved the illustrations of Cruella De Vil - she had perfectly straight, glossy hair pulled back in a bun. It was my dream to be her :confused: I just loved the descriptions of how she looked!

Also loved the illustrations of the Flower Fairies, not sure who they were by but they were quite common when I was younger and I loved how natural and unkempt their hair was!

[letibear]

I've always been partial to video game/anime characters, Chun Li (http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y180/cryst4l/ECCC_Chun_Li_Print_2010_by_Omar_Dogan.jpg) being one of my favorites.

I make the bun covers in different colors/fabric ^_^

[ariesfairies]

Good thread! I feel I've been totally inspired from characters as much as real people :) Sailor Moon used to be a kind of inspiration but she was a little too unrealistic for me because of how straight and perfect her hair was so I dropped that... Though, As of last year, I came across the web comic "Homestuck", and a large number of the female characters of this alien race has very long, thick black hair. Sometimes the way they're drawn they have it from TBL to thigh to calf length hair. The character in my icon/avatar is one of the characters - she has the most similar hair to mine (and funnily is representative of the same star sign as me ha :P)
But yeah... Learned to also appreciate the thick and unruly type of extra long hair thanks to them :)

[Charlottie]

Haha Homestuck characters seem to be motivating me as well. Feferi please give me your hair u_u

[NoRush]

My inspiration initially were disney princesses, especially Sleeping Beauty :P then in my teens loved Asuka from Evangelion. :bounce:

[Moloik]

Isolde from Tristan (2006)
I'd get a lot of inspiration from Game of Thrones too.

[FamBam]

I've just recently seen Snow White and the Huntsman and my goodness, Charlize Theron's hair as the Queen is breathtaking, it was quite distracting from the movie itself!

[Tehillim408]

My hair inspirations usually come from Bollywood movies. Aishwarya Rai always has the most gorgeous long thick hair. Really, any Indian movie will usually have women with long, thick, shiny hair.

[Tehillim408]

An example:

[Tehillim408]

The main female character in the movie Vivah (highly, highly recommended, BTW) had beautiful long hair as well:

[Dr. Hank McCoy]

Katara from 'Avatar: The Last Airbender.' (The cartoon, not the movie.) She is one of the main reasons I want to grow my hair out. Her hair is absolutely gorgeous. :inlove: Not to mention I can cosplay her better with longer hair!


Not gonna lie, for a cartoon, ahs does have some pretty amazing hair.:p

And, If I found a woman with hair similar to that, I'd probably propose right there in the spot :p

[Dr. Hank McCoy]

Here's (http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&safe=off&biw=1786&bih=806&tbm=isch&tbnid=G0wACjXYlTm6pM:&imgrefurl=http://www.sidekickcomicsuk.com/blogs/blog4.php/2011/11/07/behind-the-masks-professor-abraham-van-h%3Fpage%3D2&docid=1mg9XGwS6WlvTM&imgurl=http://www.sidekickcomicsuk.com/blogs/media/blogs/sidekick/hugh_jackman_in_van_helsing.jpg&w=315&h=395&ei=6q_gT_DeNuGi2gW8qKmtCg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=536&vpy=125&dur=2735&hovh=251&hovw=200&tx=95&ty=113&sig=114447870116372049443&page=1&tbnh=144&tbnw=126&start=0&ndsp=40&ved=1t:429,r:2,s:0,i:79) Kinda what I'm going for....

[Dragon Faery]

I've just recently seen Snow White and the Huntsman and my goodness, Charlize Theron's hair as the Queen is breathtaking, it was quite distracting from the movie itself!

I second this! Absolutely stunning!

[MintChocChip]

also, morgana from merlin. I love all the intricate styles she had done, but i can't find a guide or reference to them anywhere so i want to get really good and familiar with techniques that 1 day i'll be able to look back at the series and figure out how they're done instantly!

Yep, I am with you there! Seriously love Morgana's hair in Merlin. Katie McGrath has such lovely hair. Definately my hair inpsiration.

Also, Karen Gillan (Amy Pond) in Doctor Who. I love her hair! She's got thickness, shine and such a gorgeous natural colour. So much envy! :D

[jillosity]

All the women on The Borgias have great hair and incredible snoods and Juliet caps, I think that's what they're called, it's a netted and sometimes beaded ornament.

[DarkCurls]

Romy Schneider in the Sissi trilogy. I love those movies... *sigh*
Yeah, the hair isn't real, but she has amazing hairstyles all throughout the movies and it's long and thick and thud-worthy. I was constantly in awe of her hair.

[Metallia]

When I was little, I'm pretty sure it was the Disney princess model that had me wanting "hair I could sit on".
Nowadays, I'm inspired by Princess Buttercup, any one the elves in LoTR, and Deanna Troi from Star Trek: TNG. I know her hair isn't actually crazy long (and Marina Sirtis wore a hairpiece), but it's so lovely, curly, and thick. And we're talking seasons 2-5 and 7 as my favorites. Yes, I looked her hair up by season. Season 1 was not a flattering time for Troi.

[firevegan]

Nyuu from Elfen Lied ^_^

[sakuraemily]

Actually your hair looks very pretty. If that is yours down in your sig.

[10000days]

I love the Cersei Lannister and Daenerys Targaryen's hair from Game of Thrones. The light hair and the length and soft waves are beautiful.

[afu]

I love the hair in period dramas - Downton Abbey <3

[EtherealDoll]

My anime hair inspiratons:
Eve (Black Cat)
Erio (Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko)
Cosette (Le Portrait de petite Cosette)
Shinku (Rozen Maiden)
Misuzu (Air)
Victorica (Gosick)
Mafuyu (Seitokai no Ichizon)
Shiro (Deadman Wonderland)

[Rowan Will-o']

Yes, Emmy Rossum in Phantom of the Opera had really nice hair.
The redhead in The Mentalist has great hair, and I am always impressed by the different ways she wears it. Sometimes she even sports hair toys. I love Ziva's hair in NCIS, but she doesn't change it much, and I don't notice anything special like hair barrettes.

I am watching Enchanted now, and Amy Adams' hair is nice, - not sure if it is all hers or not.
Oh, I almost forgot my all time favorite star and her hair - Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast At Tiffany's, and also Charade, but Breakfast At Tiffany's was my all-time favorite with Audrey, as she was so very glamorous and a quickly created up-do for her was so beautiful.

Rowan Will-o'

[humble_knight]

I've been watching a lot of Spartacus lately. Gannicus has hair that inspires me, not to mention he's really fit and quite pleasant on the eyes :crush:

[oktobergoud]

I love the hair in period dramas - Downton Abbey <3

Yes I love Downton Abbey as well.. not only the hair but the dresses as well! :D

[Kleine Mädchen]

I love the Cersei Lannister and Daenerys Targaryen's hair from Game of Thrones. The light hair and the length and soft waves are beautiful.

I completely agree! I love the soft waves in their hair and how thick and healthy Cersei's hair looks! Great show, even better books!!!

[AngryVikingGirl]

Claire Danes in "Stardust." Both Claire and her hair are just beautiful.
I love Stardust! Not my original inspiration though. Whenever I saw very long hair I just felt...aaah...I want that!

[Demi-Plum]

Haha actually My hair is getting close to Sailor Mars length. About 10 more inches to go! My hair is also so dark brown that people always mistake it for black. In all honesty I think about half the people I know are colorblind (men AND women) because my hair is very obviously not black at all in person. I have a lot of fiery red/gold strands in it and it's just simply not possible that it's black. Maybe when it's soaking wet but not dry! But since my hair color is between to Jupiter and Mars they were always inspiration for me. Especially Mars since her length is my goal!

[Zesty]

I don't watch a lot of TV or movies, but: Catelyn Stark from GoT (she doesn't get enough love), Arwen and Eowyn from LotR, and the handful of Bollywood movies I've seen. I tend to prefer dark hair over light, which is why Cersei and Danaerys don't get mentions from me (I also am not a huge fan of Dany's dark eyebrows paired with that white white hair in the show).
