My mother, when she was younger.

Up until I think her sophomore year of college, my mother had hip-to-tailbone length hair, in this georgous shade of red. My hair isn't as red as hers, but our hair styles pretty similarly, so I can look at old pictures of her and know what my hair will look like. (Okay, so there are old pictures of me at almost the same length, but I just love the color of hers)

Mine was Peggy Lipton, Julie, in the Modsquad TV series growing up. Now i'd say it's between singer Sophie B. Hawkins and Yoga instructor: Seane Corn. Love the dark blonde natural curls & waves!

Click the links for droolworthy vids/pics!

My long hair idols are:

- Jane Seymour: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0Gl5aca2gY
Her hair was the only reason I watched Bond. The shine, the colour and the thickness...
- Paulina Porizkova http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pz47-2z9ouI
Her hair in the movie "Her Alibi" is just beautiful! Like herself, obviously :D
- Ruslana Korshunova: http://blog.anitaeldjarn.com/2010/02/ruslana-korshunova.html
She was known as Rapunzel in the fashion industry

Amy Lee, back in the day when she had long hair. Even though she used to straighten the hell out of it. I remember I used to put the "Anywhere but home" DVD on and just stare at her hair :p

Angel Porrino from e! channel show Hollysworld, I can't post pics yet but her hair is amazing to me. NOT sure if its real though...:hmm:

I know it's a wig but the hair is almost exactly the same color as mine. Galadriel from Lord of the Rings.

I think that her hair was probably a wig but I liked Isolde (Sophia Myles) hair in Tristan & Isolde.

*Le sigh* Do we have to pick just one?...

If I had to pick just one that encompasses most of the things my hair wants to be when it grows up all on one head my first pick would be this lady right here. Her hair is just so lush and thick it's insane, (insanely awesome that is) . One day Helix...one day...:

This hair idol's texture is different from my own but what I wouldn't give for my rollersets to turn out like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQ2vSLr7Vvc

So bouncy and her length is nothing to joke about either. You should see her flatiron videos.

My little fro wants to grow up to be like this (except bigger. I'm greedy): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEZ9oA_UfJ4&feature=related

My hair idol is actually on this forum. I've always admired Carolyn's beautiful hair, I only wish mine could look like that some day. I also think Anje's long red hair is amazing. :)

Yes, this thread has been done many many times, but I never tire of naming my idol: Sarah Brightman. I know in her later years she wears extensions and wigs, but I just love her natural hair, dark and curly. I have wavy hair myself but maybe, just maybe I'll have the guts to dye my hair dark. But I love her music, too, not just her music. But I remember when I was 10 I was just stunned by her hair.

I love her music and I am ashamed to admit, I had no idea she had that hair! I love the look of it on her album Harem.

I don't know who my long hair idol would be anymore. My old one cut her hair off some years ago.:mad: I really should find one, though. But they have to have at least tailbone or beyond.

June 20th, 2011, 10:42 PM
duh! Rapunzel! I've told this story many times, but only here, NEVER IRL. I was watching Tangled and was amazed at her hair. So shiny,and strong, and looong. It was right then I decided I wanted long hair. (seriously) because I was curious what it would be like to swing from my own hair. Now, I know I can't do that, but still, she's my idol. Love you Rapunzel!

Aw, you're welcome. I have several more on my subscription list (I'm not obsessed. Honest. Just trying to learn as much as I can) but decided to narrow it down to a few for this thread. If you'd like to see more let me know, (unfortunately I can't pm yet).

I decided I really wanted my hair longer when I saw Metallic Kitty. I don't necessarily want hair like hers, but it inspired me nonetheless. And I really like Jenn Curbstomps hair:p I know it's straightened, but I still like it a lot. I still think it would look nice even if it was a little wavy.

Roxanne, because she uses her hair in her magic tricks!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRFcIlrL1sA - watch for her using her hairsticks to prove the glass is solid.

Her hair looks shorter than it used to be, you can really see the length in this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HeulYdqa090

These were the two major hair influences that made me say no to the scissors at a young age. I didn't really want their hair per say, just my hair, as long.

Jane Seymour in Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger.
I found out years later she flat-ironed it. Ouch! I also was NOT supposed to see this movie, (with good reason) but someone we didn't usually spend time with had some sort of in home movie theater and showed it, when my parents were not aware. I stopped thinking I should leave the room as soon as I saw her. I didn't care from then on if I got in trouble...
The visual imagery I got while reading the Laura Ingles Wilder series, when she wrote about hair.

Princess Leia had her moment in my head, but by then it was more of oh, there are more ways to wear your hair up other than 1800 style? Must try... Small child trying to put her hair up...well that didn't really work out until I was much older. Hehe.

Daria Halprin as seen in one of my favourite films ever, Zabriskie Point by Michaelangelo Antonioni. She was the one who made me grow my long hair even longer.

I also agree that Ruslana Korshunova's hair was wonderful, many Russian women seem to have long hair, at least the ones I now.From all of the lovely hair in this forum, Ysmalan is my long haired idol!

My long haired idol has been the same girl since I was in 6th grade. We grew up in school together and occasionally still see each other though usually through facebook. she has always had waist length white blonde hair with gorgeous natural wave. I would give anything to have her hair.
