I must admit that I was a bit disappointed to hairstyles. So far, I've liked Episode II and original trilogy hairstyles best- there are some styles that could be made at home yet they would look very creative. In my opinion, there are already thousands of movies portraying more realistic hairstyles- no need for SW to start following that trend.

The only style in Ep III that I really liked was the one that looked like double low buns combined into a braid. That's something I will try right when my hair grows a little. 

Maybe Padmé likes wigs? Or maybe her hair is so curly that it looks shorter when worn loose 

unless she has incredibly curly hair ...
to be honest i've been trying since childhood to stay awake throughout a whole SW movie and failed until now. they were showing on french tv all episodes to prepare people for the new episode i suppose. i noticed some great hair, seemed to awake at the good hair moments, crashed during the endlessly boring fight scenes 

but i keep having serious problems with princess leia do's ... i think i dislike in general styles that divide the hair vertically in two.  and i wonder how you even pin a bun onto your ears!!??

The trick to this ear thingy is to have rather prominent ears  .   This was actually a common style when I was growing up in Germany called "Schnecken" i.e., snails.  the pinning is all in back and on top  ...g

mkay, i saw the third episode just today (ok, technically the sixth), and her hair is loose when they're with those teddy bears, i'd call it tailbone to the max!

Natalie Portman had naturally curly hair. i woudl sya if she blowe dit out, it wqould be midback length. And I do remember the braid she wore when she went to look for Anakin towards teh end of the movie. That was defintaely extentions. Lol. Seeing as how this is a futuristic movie and another galaxy...they may have found easy ways of adding false hair easily and quickly.
