Letting Her Hair Down | comment |
Often, when a female character is particularly serious or uptight, her hair will be serious and uptight too — pulled back in a tight bun, or something of that sort. When a woman gets a love interest and starts to loosen up a little (as such characters almost inevitably do), she will start wearing her hair down, or at least in a looser style. Unlike the hair-letting-down that is part of Beautiful All Along, this is never part of a makeover and is not necessarily commented upon by the other characters. The hairstyle in this case is more of a quick visual indicator of the character's relaxation. If the new style is noticed, there will be comments along the lines of "you should wear your hair like that more often." This is a subconscious appreciation of the heroine's new state of relaxation. A variation of this can be seen in shows for younger girls. If the girl has low self esteem, she will wear her hair down and over her face. At the end of the show, when she has gained some confidence, she will pull her hair back to signify the change, opening her face and no longer hiding. Sometimes the letting down is actually done expressly to make the character look more attractive, with existing admirers having their desires heightened while those who hadn't noticed them before suddenly find them to have been Beautiful All Along. This is likely related to the medieval notion that long hair was an indication of the owner's sexual prowess and concupiscence, and in fact incited others to arousal if it were not hidden, concealed, or worn up in some fashion. A Sister Trope to Important Haircut, The Glasses Gotta Go. Compare Slipknot Ponytail (one's hair goes au naturale because they are being badass), Wild Hair (where it is normally worn loose), Shaking Her Hair Loose (a more aggressive way of undoing hair), or Glasses And Ponytail Cover Up (which this action oftentimes follows). |

Adventure Time: One of the Rule 63 episodes features Fionna removing her hat and revealing her very long hair while singing with "bad little boy" Marshall Lee. The first time Finn the Human took off his hat (season 2 episode "To Cut a Woman's Hair"), it was played as a gender-swapped version of this trope, with a specific focus on the majestic beauty and length of his golden locks. |

Played very unusually in Puella Magi Madoka Magica. Originally, Homura has her hair done up in twin braids, but eventually lets it down. This doesn't signify her becoming more relaxed in the slightest, though; in fact, it marks her transition into being serious. So you could say it's inverted, only it's also played straight, because the character was previously shy, so it signals a growth in confidence. On the other hand, it also seems to represent the loss of her innocence. So it's hard to classify where this one lands. Kyoko also later does this in the fight with Oktavia von Seckendorff to show that she finally became a better person. In Puella Magi Oriko Magica, Oriko has her hair in a side ponytail normally. When transformed, she lets it down. |

Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny has Meyrin Hawke, who keeps her hair in Girlish Pigtails. After helping Athrun defect from ZAFT and joining the Archangel, she ditches the pigtails and wears her hair loose. At the very end of the series she puts it back up again, to the disappointment of some fans who thought she looked a lot more mature with it down. | |

Rocketship Voyager. As the eponymous Retro Rocket doesn't have Artificial Gravity, the female crewmembers prefer updoes or bobcuts, but this changes once they're underway and the thrust of the rocketship creates pseudo-gravity. Captain Janeway decides to let her hair down from the Bun of Steel, but this happens just before a dinner she's having with Space Commander Chakotay to try and mend some bridges with him, so this trope is implied. | |

Star Trek: Enterprise. Science officer T'Pol has the standard Vulcan Sci-Fi Bob Haircut, but in "In A Mirror, Darkly" she's got long flowing hair down past her shoulders, in accordance with the Sexy Villains, Chaste Heroes look of the Mirror Universe.

Parodied in an episode of That '70s Show. At the start of an episode, Kelso gets a ticket from a beautiful female cop who wore her hair down. Later that same episode, he meets the same female cop, this time with her hair in a tight bun, and does not recognize her at all. (Averted somewhat however, as he attributes her previous sexiness to the uniform instead of her hair). | |

Lee the masochistic heroine of Secretary mostly wears her hair braided across her head to begin with. As she enters a, well, unconventional romance with her boss, she starts to wear it down, especially at moments when she clearly feels most confident. She reverts to updos somewhat as the relationship founders, but her reunion with her lover culminates in a scene in which he tenderly and sensually washes her hair, which is of course down for the purpose. | |

Zigzagged in RWBY. Weiss ties up her hair with a tiara that resembles her family's symbol, which she only takes off in the evenings. The first time this happens, she starts a fight with Ruby and Yang- and the second, she meekly reconciles with Ruby. | |

The Hunger Games: Katniss is only shown with her hair down when she is at her most vulnerable. There's some justification to this, since her iconic braid is just how she wears it when she's hunting or in the games. | |

At the end of Metroid: Other M, Samus is seen out of her Power Suit and Zero Suit, and into what looks to be a uniform, long hair let down. Though she ties it back into a ponytail after a while, the dialogue and her expression easily convey her feeling of peace and coming to terms with Adam's death and the resolution of the Bottle Ship incident. | |

In How to Rob a Bank, Jessica removes her black wig once she knows her cover is thoroughly blown. Under it, her naturally brown hair is pinned up to allow her to wear the wig over it. When the power to the vault is turned off, she lets her hair down, showing how at ease with Jason she now is. | |

This coincides with a plot where she wants Ami to transfer schools because her grades are slipping.note She misses cram school because of her duties as a Sailor Soldier. At the end of the episode when the two have worked things out, we see Mama with her hair down and she looks like a different person. | |

In A Brother's Price, Jerin usually keeps his hair in a practical braid. He gets to "let it down" at a royal ball, where it is decorated with flowers and jewelry, and arranged so that it cascades down over his shoulders. There's also the incident when Princess Lylia talks him into kissing her. She undoes his braid, a physical symbol of the unchaste act she got him to commit. Princess Ren re-braids it later, after scolding Lylia. | |

Avatar: Avatar: The Last Airbender: For the first two Books in the series, Katara was known for her "hair loopies", though they often came undone during fight scenes. Come "Book 3: Fire", she finally decided to simply wear her hair long as part of her disguise, while they were in Fire Nation territory. Interestingly enough, this was a conscious decision on the part of the writers, who, during commentary for "The Waterbending Master" episode, admitted they preferred Katara's look with her hair down. Which they cited as the reason for usually having her hair unravel during her fight scenes. The Legend of Korra: Korra gets her ponytail knocked loose a few times. The first is in "Harmonic Convergence", where she's flung from Oogi's back. She spends the rest of the finale with her hair down. The second is in the Book 3 season finale, where she loses the ponytail along with her shoes, skirt, and armband when the Red Lotus chain her up in preparation to poison her. |

Variation after the events of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS, which has Teana losing her Tsundere twin-tails after she had matured into a highly competent and reliable leader. Inverted with Nanoha. She loses her tight little pigtails as she grows up, and is shown wearing her hair out, but her personality doesn't change at all, since she was already very mature. She's back to wearing it tied up in the third season, albit looser and in a single side ponytail. |

Sunshine Cleaning: Norah only has her hair down when she's around Lynn, which is when she also starts opening up and connecting with another human being. Rose also only wears her hair down while meeting Mac in the motel for their rendezvous. She also wears it down for the baby shower - which is when she realizes that she is finally happy with her life. |

Rapunzel has the titular character's evil stepmother Gothel and the prince repeatedly asking her to do this so they can climb up to her tower. As Freud would point out, this releasing of her hair was not just for utilitarian purposes, considering that Rapunzel eventually gets pregnant from all this, um, "relaxation" with her prince. | |

Degrassi character Holly J starts out with her hair in a tight ponytail at all times, letting her hair down once in a failed seduction technique on resident hottie Blue. As she becomes more comfortable with people, and stops being the Alpha Bitch, she slowly moves to less uptight hairstyles. Season 9 she wears a series of cute functional hairbands, finally in Season 10 she moved to her hair being unadorned unless for practical reasons for whatever activity is going on. Other characters have done the switch to hair down for Beautiful All Along reasons. | |

In Frozen, Elsa first wore her hair in a tight braid which she put into a bun (symbolic of her tightly wound, suppressed nature). After letting go of her anxiety and deciding to no longer hide what she is, she tousles her hair and lets her braid hang over her shoulder. Then in Frozen II, she begins with it braided just as it was in the latter half of the first film, and she's still not entirely happy, feeling restless and somewhat unfulfilled, which is twisted together with her fear of changing her already-happier-than-it-used-to-be life. The braid continues to hang until the scene where she finds herself standing alone ready to challenge the ocean, at which point she unbraids it and puts it into a loose ponytail. And as she reaches Ahtohollan, she undoes the ponytail and now her hair is completely unbound for the first time ever, symbolizing how she's finally completely and truly free from all fear and self-doubt. |

Star Trek: Star Trek: The Next Generation: Inverted in the episodes "Booby Trap" and "Galaxy's Child". In "Booby Trap", the warm and flirty holographic incarnation of Dr. Leah Brahms wears her hair up, while in "Galaxy's Child", the real, cold Brahms wears long and flowing locks. Captain Janeway wore a bun in the first few seasons of Star Trek: Voyager. It disappeared when the writers decided to drop her "This is a Starfleet vessel" persona and let the poor girl loosen up a bit (or when they started stuffing up her character). Likewise Kes ditched her bobbed wig for long flowing locks, but that was because Jennifer Lien was getting a reaction to the adhesive used to stick her pointy ears on. Seven of Nine also wore her hair down in later episodes when she was doing social experiments in the holodeck. She'd immediately pin it back up when reporting for duty. Star Trek: Enterprise. Science officer T'Pol has the standard Vulcan Sci-Fi Bob Haircut, but in "In A Mirror, Darkly" she's got long flowing hair down past her shoulders, in accordance with the Sexy Villains, Chaste Heroes look of the Mirror Universe. Ensign Hoshi likewise has loosened her hairbun into a ponytail. Both are portrayed as Femme Fatale-types in contrast to their restrained normal personas. Star Trek: Picard. As a sign of her more casual personality, Seven of Nine has Wild Hair in contrast to the French pleat she wore as an Ice Queen on Voyager. |

Gundam X's Tiffa Addil has a ponytail but when Barrier Maiden Lucille Lilliant "borrows" her body to ask for help from Jamil, Tiffa's adoptive father as well as her former pupil, she lets it loose. Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny has Meyrin Hawke, who keeps her hair in Girlish Pigtails. After helping Athrun defect from ZAFT and joining the Archangel, she ditches the pigtails and wears her hair loose. At the very end of the series she puts it back up again, to the disappointment of some fans who thought she looked a lot more mature with it down. |

In Glee, head cheerleader and the Alpha Bitch Quinn wears her hair in a tight ponytail for most of season 1, until her teen pregnancy is revealed and she is forced to quit the cheerleading team. She starts wearing her hair loose and becomes a more compassionate person. At the start of season 2, having given up her baby for adoption, she goes back to her original tight ponytail hairstyle. (Her more relaxed personality is also reflected in a change in wardrobe— from the sharp cheerleader uniform to more casual clothes.) | |

As the story progresses and she mellows out (befitting her introspection after losing her sister), she begins letting her hair fall naturally. This also helps to separate her from her canon self when they begin interacting, and carries over to her appearance in the finale of PONY.MOV. | |

Crimson and Noire: Played for Drama when Lila convinces Marinette that she looks much prettier and more mature when her hair is out of its usual pigtails, and that she should wear it that way for the upcoming school dance. Marinette is unaware that Lila is a Clingy Jealous Girl who's been sabotaging others' efforts to romance her, and the scene has undertones of a Control Freak convincing their lover to dress in ways that cater to their personal preferences. | |

In My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, a brief variation of this shows up in the episode "Sisterhooves Social". Rarity normally has her mane curled, but near the end of the episode, she goes out in the rain to play with Sweetie Belle, and her mane gets straightened by water. While it's unintentional on her part, it still fits, as it's an indicator that she's been willing to relax her desire to keep up appearances in favor of spending time with her sister. Rarity's mane gets straightened by the rain again in "Magical Mystery Cure" and "Rarity Takes Manehattan". | |

At the end of Dead or Alive 5, Kasumi, who has been wearing her hair in an action ponytail for the entire game up until this point dramatically undoes her ribbon and lets her hair loose. This is done to give a sense of finality to her story now that she has killed her clone and made some sort of amends with the other members of her tribe. Also a gratuitous show of the game's new hair physics. | |

Pokémon: The Series: Pokémon: The Original Series: Misty normally has her hair tied into a small pigtail. While she is indeed a cute girl, her appearance changes dramatically every time she puts this trope to practice. In Pokémon Adventures, following the rather traumatic incident with N at the Nimbasa Ferris Wheel, White keeps her hair out of its usual ponytail, signifying her depression. She ties it back up when she somewhat comes in terms with herself. Incidentally, fans agree she looks much prettier with her hair down. |

Third Watch. As a paramedic waits for a doctor to leave the hospital (he's planning to ask her out), she emerges with her hair loose, in line with the Defrosting Ice Queen turn she's taken lately. (There's also the Fridge Logic of her wearing her hair up while at work, as most female medical professionals do, and taking it down once work is over). | |

Spyro: Year of the Dragon: In the anthropomorphic setting, Bianca lets her rabbit ears down when she joins the side of the heroes. Before, she hid them with a shadowy, imposing hood. | |

Inverted in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. At the beginning of the film, Dr. Elsa Schneider lets her long, blonde hair flow while she explores Venice with Indy. However, once she's revealed as a Nazi collaborator, her hair is shown in tight buns. Her hairstyle remains this way for the remainder of the film, except in the grail temple, when her hair comes somewhat undone and messy when she desperately reaches for the artifact, but we never see the flowing locks again. | |

Captain Janeway wore a bun in the first few seasons of Star Trek: Voyager. It disappeared when the writers decided to drop her "This is a Starfleet vessel" persona and let the poor girl loosen up a bit (or when they started stuffing up her character). Likewise Kes ditched her bobbed wig for long flowing locks, but that was because Jennifer Lien was getting a reaction to the adhesive used to stick her pointy ears on. Seven of Nine also wore her hair down in later episodes when she was doing social experiments in the holodeck. She'd immediately pin it back up when reporting for duty. | |

Metroid: If you finish Super Metroid fast enough, Samus will remove her Power Suit at the end. She's shown with her hair tied, but then lets it loose, perhaps in a symbolic way to say that the mission is over for now. At the end of Metroid: Other M, Samus is seen out of her Power Suit and Zero Suit, and into what looks to be a uniform, long hair let down. Though she ties it back into a ponytail after a while, the dialogue and her expression easily convey her feeling of peace and coming to terms with Adam's death and the resolution of the Bottle Ship incident. |

Discussed about Aunt Polly in Pollyanna. Her old lover Edmund Chilton remarks that she used to wear her hair down when they were in love. Nowadays as a cold and detached Proper Lady she only wears it up. She does let it down for a moment after an argument with Edmund, but actually doesn't do this in the film. Her hair remains up after her Character Development. | |

Nightfall from ElfQuest can't be described as uptight by any stretch, but she does keep her long brown hair under a headscarf except in her most intimate moments. | |

Then in Frozen II, she begins with it braided just as it was in the latter half of the first film, and she's still not entirely happy, feeling restless and somewhat unfulfilled, which is twisted together with her fear of changing her already-happier-than-it-used-to-be life. The braid continues to hang until the scene where she finds herself standing alone ready to challenge the ocean, at which point she unbraids it and puts it into a loose ponytail. And as she reaches Ahtohollan, she undoes the ponytail and now her hair is completely unbound for the first time ever, symbolizing how she's finally completely and truly free from all fear and self-doubt. | |

A Bridge to the Starry Skies: In the OVA adaptation, Koyori does this as a way to disguise herself while spying on Kazuma and Madoka's date. She also does this in the visual novel as part of her efforts to explore her feminine side as she starts crushing on Kazuma. | |
