Do you ever think about Maria's hair? For example (in the movie verse), do you think that Maria has always had short hair? Or at one point, did she have long hair?
I have a theory that may or may not be far-fetched. When she was younger, Maria had longer hair. After she was able to escape her uncle, she chopped it off in a fit of rebellion. I also think that it would be an interesting concept for a story on why Maria's hair is so short.
Also, what do you think it'd be like if Maria had long hair in the movie?

Oh God, I love the short hair. Maria/Julie and anyone like her, especially when they have short hair like her, just drive me crazy. I love the short hair for a lot of reasons. Not sure why I like it for me, but for them it's easier to maintain. It just looks... idk? I can't describe it. |

I think that JA had an accident with her hair when the hairdresser bleached her hair and that is why she was obliged to cut it so short. The other explanation is that she was a postulant, so she was obliged to have her hair cut short and very simple, without ornaments or curls. If we compare the Baroness's exquisite hairstyle and Maria's simplest and almost male hairstyle, we see the difference between the absolutely feminine woman and the wanna-be-nun girl. I believe that before entering the abbey, her hair was longer, but she was a natural blonde. |

When Julie was filming Mary Poppins, she had to wear a wig, so she cut her hair short. When JA was about to film TSOM, her hair was a natural dirty blonde, and Robert Wise wanted to give her more highlights. They came out orange, so Julie cut her hair even shorter, and then they dyed all of her hair pure blonde. I like Julie's (and Maria's) hair short, because I really can't picture it any other way.
My theory about why Maria's hair is so short is either because she cut it when she was young and liked it, so she kept it that way, or because she had to cut it all off when she entered the abbey. Or because her hair was long when she entered the abbey, and then she put curlers in her hair ("and underneath her wimple, she has curlers in her hair!"). Then maybe one of the sisters found out about the curlers, so then they cut her hair as a consequence.

It says a lot about Georg that he could have the baroness (or any number of eligible glamorous women presumably) and chose such a simple looking lady. Though, Maria is quite strikingly beautiful in her own way. Do you think she ever grows her hair out as their lives go on, or does she keep the short hair because it suits her? |

what do you think it'd be like if Maria had long hair in the movie? Initially, I was thinking it would be pulled back because she is so active. Though, it seems like all of the adult women have kind of complicated pulled back styled hair. I can't see her taking time to do anything complicated or fancy. So, I think it would just be down. Actually, I'm struggling trying to picture her with long hair. Would it be shorter like Liesl's? Or longer like the other girls? How long do you think Elsa's hair actually is? |

I feel like Elsa's hair could've been just below her shoulders. At it's longest, it could possibly be down to her waist. Either way, it had to be rather long considering how she had it pinned up.

I could see that if she had curlers in her (long) hair at the abbey, she might be told to have it cut short to end her source of vanity.
People tend to grow into roles over time, and I think in the same way that Maria's clothes gradually morphed into a more mature woman's clothes when she got married, as the years pass, she might grow her hair into some sort of simple shape, almost as a mark of her passage to becoming a lady of status and the mother of seven children!

What do you think about the dresses Maria could have worn to balls and parties? I have a few ideas from Pinterest (I have a board with fancy dresses), anyone want the link?

I was wondering this same thing over in the Maria's Hair thread today (I know, not the logical place for it). Great minds think alike though Silver-White-Winters! |

reverendcaptain @crispapplestrudels, here's the link: pin.it/20N9hgD (might have to copy and paste, my phone won't let me attach a link, like I can on my computer). I can see if I can add contributors if you wanted to add in things. The link is for "Fancy Dresses"b but Maria's dresses is the sub board. If that made sense?

Julie could wear a garbage bag and make it look good.

I may have a case of "The Georg's" because I don't really find Elsa all that attractive, but Maria/Julie??? *dies* |

I was watching parts of the movie today (for my fanfic research), and I noticed that after she comes back from the honeymoon, her hair appears to be more styled and put together. If you compare the opening scene hair to the post-honeymoon hair, you might notice that her hair looks more wavy in the post-honeymoon pic.   You might have to click on the pictures to see the hair more clearly. Thoughts? |

In the 2nd picture, it looks like it's grown out a bit and styled differently than before the honeymoon. Maria's hair in the 2nd picture looks like the picture I posted in either this thread or the "her hair" thread, but a little shorter. |

I often imagine Maria with slightly longer hair after she’s married, but it’s never long. It’s like a strawberry blonde version of Rosemary Clooney’s hair in White Christmas. Short, but long enough to have that bit of style.

It looks as though her hair has been blow-dried after her honeymoon, and also it is darker and has that auburn tint to it.
No doubt Maria has spent some of her honeymoon getting to know the coiffeuses of Paris...

I just dyed my hair again, and it got me thinking. If Maria was to dye her hair, what color do you think she'd pick?
Personally, if she was going for a natural color, she would dye it a brown color. The color brown that Julie's hair was in "Darling Lili" (one of my all-time favorites). However, if she was going for an unnatural, bold color, she would probably go with a deep purple. Royal purple, perhaps? Or maybe pastel pink?
Anyway, what do you guys think?

I think she'd go with something shocking, and not care at all that she gets strange looks over it. I'm going to go with pink - her favorite color. Though I don't think it would go over that well with Sister Berthe.  |

As for Sister Berthe, I'm not sure dying your hair any color would go over well with her. Even if it were a natural colour. |
