Recognizable Character Hairstyles To Try At Disney



Everyone has a favorite Disney character. Some people adore the Princesses, while others love their furry sidekicks. Some people go the evil route and admire the Disney villains. There are many characters you can copy style-wise, when visiting the parks.

However, there are ways to have fun with your appearance without wasting money on clothes. In this article, I will provide some recognizable character hairstyles to try at different Disney parks and which land fits the character’s aesthetic. Let’s get started!

REY: Galaxy’s Edge

Rey, a new character to the Star Wars universe, has a distinctive hairstyle that separates her from the iconic Princess of Alderaan, Leia Skywalker. Rey’s hairstyle is cool to try for those with long, luscious locks or thick hair. Her unique hairdo is perfect for those wanting to visit Galaxy’s Edge in Disney World or Disneyland.

JESSIE: Toy Story Land

This rootin’ & tootin’ cowgirl is a fan favorite. Her simple braid, yellow bow, along with her cowgirl hat, makes her recognizable anywhere. Jessie’s hairstyle would be great to show off in Walt Disney Studios Park (Paris), Hong Kong Disneyland, Shanghai Disneyland, or Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

RAPUNZEL: Fantasyland

Outgoing and spirited, Rapunzel has the most beautiful hairstyle of the Disney Princesses, in my opinion. Full of fresh and colorful flowers, her braid looks majestic in Tangled. Her hairstyle would be great to wear in Walt Disney World’s Fantasyland located in Magic Kingdom Park, since there is a section dedicated to Rapunzel’s paintings and her tower (ignore the fact that it’s mainly a rest area).

CINDERELLA: Cinderella Castle

A classic tale and Disney movie, Cinderella is beloved by many. Her simple Princess bun and blue bow is a great look to wear while posing in front of her infamous castle. The castle can be found in Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom Park or in Tokyo Disneyland, after passing through Main Street.

Visiting Disney World or Disneyland is very exciting and emotional for people who grew up with the characters found in the parks. A great way to immerse yourself in the magic is by mirroring a character’s style or hairdo. That is why I hope these hairstyle tips inspire you, dear reader, to try something new on your next trip. See ya real soon!
