I think my personal character development is liking Rapunzel's short hair more and more as I age. As a kid I used to be sad Flynn cut her hair because I liked the longer hair so much more (and the fact her hair was cut short bothered me unreasonably lot :'D) but now I absolutely love the short hair and think it looks way better :')Oct 21, 2023

It's her symbol of freedom, she can now discover who she is aside from having magical hair which is what she was used and abused for

•I never understood ppls outragious reactions to her short hair. It looks much better and is so easier to handle.
Maybe its cuz we spend like 98 % of the movie with her long golden hair, so when Eugene cuts it, the change is rather jarring.
I really prefer her short hair, even more after cutting my own long hair short. Its like a burden being lifted off your shoulder. Which makes sense since the long hair on Rapunzel is a symbol of her being tied down by Mother Gothel. Eugene cutting it is like setting her free from her capturer.

•Yeah fr, and I like the symbolism that her only bond with Gothel was cut so with shorter hair she was finally able to have a healthier life
