Princesses, of course, get fabulous hairstyles:
But a heroine in a story needs something practical. I always felt sorry for Rapunzel and figured she’d shave her head the first chance she got. Notice how in the latest Disney fairytale, the heroines get simple hair: one braid or two for Elsa and Anna. Easy to manage.
And in the latest reality/fantasy TV show The Quest, the heroines look practically perfect even though they battle the forces of darkness. They don’t let their fashion suffer!
When I went to the renaissance fair with my lover this summer, I found an awesome tool for hairstyles that I love to use even in reality.
It has dozens of ways to form the metal rings, and it keeps your hair back in a bun or a ponytail so you can fight the villian without hair blowing in your face.
Of course, since I was at the fair, I also needed to get my hair done in braids with flowers and glitter sprinkled all over:
What would your ideal hairstyle be if you were a romance fantasy heroine?
