I have recently learned that the red hair is a recessive gene and will eventually die out in centuries to come. To think of it, it is very sad as I absolutely love the fiery reds. So this article is inspired from this recent learning and to dedicate to my favourite hairstyle among all princesses.

13. Cinderella:
I hated putting her so down, especially she being my 3rd favourite princess. I hate the length of her hair, its like neither here nor there. I'd say, being a house maid, the pony with simple tie-band suited her purpose. I actually liked her cute little braids in the morning. But when she was given a grand makeover by fairy godmother, I truly expected a lot from her hairstyle. The headband looks like headphones to me, absolutely contradicting the elegant choker as her neckpiece. The hair looks stuck up high, the front fringes are almost as thick as the back, eating up her lovely face. Equally bad was the hairstyle with her pink dress. With a big bow already there, why did she had to have another bow on her head?



12.Tiana:
Having so many of the hairstyles, I thought at least few would actually flatter her. But no. Again, i detest this length of hair. And honestly, that squiggly strand of hair more looks like a worm to me and doesn't flatter her at all. And in most all of the hairstyles she had adorned, i hate this worm-like strand of hair trying to escape from everywhere. At least when she's hosting the beautiful ice blue gown with a nice tiara, why can't she have a neat n clean high bun. The only hairstyle that really caught my attention was the jazz style. It actually compliments her feature and her gorgeous eyes. The headgear thing was also kind of okayish, not really that beautiful.



11. Belle
ok...so, what exactly is the color of her hair? Sometimes it looks reddish, sometimes it was dark brown and sometimes golden brown. Personally, i'd have preferred golden brown. Her ponytail was very simple yet endearing with some loose strands of hair actually teasing her face, looked pretty. Especially in that pink coat and gown of hers where she so elegantly tuck it back. Open hair did not suit her at all. And the hairstyle with her stunning golden gown was also beautiful, half up-do and half loose, completely suited the mood and her grand dress. But it failed to bring the wow factor, eventually.



10. Jasmine
She's got gorgeous hair! Black, silky, voluminous. But i really didn't like her signature hairstyle, seemed so frivolous with head jewel and bands, layering it in 3 part design was bad idea. Looks like badly tiered 3 piece cake to me. I think her long flowing open hair with a simple, one jewel band on top, suited her much better. She looked absolute stunner in open hair. Her sultry look was also good in high ponytail.



9. Mulan
Again, beautiful hair. Most hairstyles suited her purpose and situation. They were not meant to flatter her - when she obediently goes to matchmaker and when she joined the Shang's army unit. I liked her open hair as well as a single knot at the end of her hair. The only one time when she looked so serenely beautiful though was, where her hair is tucked behind from one side with a single cherry blossom, so amazing!



8. Anna:
I simply adore her two braids with cute fringes on the forehead. So like her! cheerful and cute. Love the color of her hair too, hues of red with chestnut brown. I think her coronation look didn't suit her style much except for the ribbons in her hair but wasn't bad either.



7. Snow:
Coming from her classic era, it was really surprising to see such an edgy hairstyle, short bob. It so fits her face and her fun dress. Its modest as well as smart. I really love the style edge to her hair. I'd have preferred a bit of depth though, but would leave it to animation limitation of that era.



6. Elsa
Though i don't much like the color of the hair, I really do like her both hairstyles. The coronation one was regal and so prim and proper, fit for a Queen-to-be and her messy braid is one of my personal favourite. Very stylish and contemporary.



5. Ariel
Oh such gorgeous color! And she simply played with it with wind and water. It looked stunning with simple flower, or just waving in high winds on the shore or a wet crumpled look. I also quite liked the cute little pin-up with a larger-than-her-face blue bow. I thought it was the cutest hairstyles of all. The only 2 looks i don't like on her are the mother-look. The bun and a ponytail - too serious for her spunky and feisty personality. It doesn't suit her cute childish facial features.



4. Rapunzel:
Personally, don't know who can manage with 100ft of hair, but story's a story, so no arguments on that. So discounting her open hair and the fact they were blessed to be healthy and beautiful forever. I really loved her flower-studded braided look. She looked so sweet and charming. And just completely loved the pixie look. I think both suited her so equally well, balancing her sweet and kind with spunky/outdoorsy persona. I think the pixie look finally completed her.



3.Pocahontas
I love the wave of her hair, flowing in the wind freely. I loved the fact that no hair accessory was used on her hair. She looked so raw, so natural with just simple straight black hair.



2. Aurora
her hair is just like herself. So graceful and royal! Her hair looked like the color of sun rays at the dawn, palest of gold, tumbling down in softest of curls, teasing her waistline. Adorned with simplest of black band, they look absolutely gorgeous.




1. Merida
My absolute favorite and a stunner. Fiery red, curly, wild, open, long hair. The best combination ever! So dramatic and full of energy and vibrance, it takes my breath away everytime. The way she flicked her head to sway the wild strand on her face and how it roared behind her on Angus. I remember when i fist saw the poster, the first thing i said to myself, look at her hair! so stunningly gorgeous!




Having myself curly hair, I do have predisposition towards curly hair and tend to favor them above all. Would love to hear your views on same.
