When the movie "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" was released, the head shape of Narcissa Malfoy immediately attracted everyone's attention.
For a while, Narcissa's head shape has become a popular trend. Many girls deliberately dyed their hair into a two-tone color of upper black and lower gold like hers.
But in the original novel, Narcissa’s hair is depicted as blonde, which means she is a standard blonde beauty.
Most people in the Black family have black or dark hair, such as Narcissa’s two sisters, Bella Cretus and Andromeda, but Narcissa has rare light-colored hair.
In addition, Narcissa’s name did not follow the naming convention of the Black family, that is, instead of using the names of stars or celestial bodies, they were named after flowers (narcissus).
It can be seen that from the very beginning, the author Rowling has hinted that Narcissa will be a "different" character.
So, in the movie, why is Narcissa’s head shape different from the original novel?
1. Different from my sister
"Harry Potter" movie hair styling Lisa Tomblin said in an interview, "We tried many different blonde hair styles. With different accessories. This head shape was finally determined."
And the reason for choosing two hair colors, that is, partly black,Partly golden, just to distinguish it from her sister Bella Cretus.
is like Tonks in the novel, his hair is bubble gum-like pink, but in order to avoid collision with "Pink Toad" Umbridge in the movie, Tonks often uses purple hair in the movie Show people.
2. The combination of the two families
Narcissa's two-color hair design, as well as a small meaning, I believe everyone can easily see.
Black represents the Black family, and gold represents the Malfoy family. Narcissa is a symbol of the special relationship between these two families.
In addition, Narcissa's hair color is not static. With the development of the story, the original black began to become dark brown, and the gold became pale gold. This not only meant that Narcissa was under great pressure, but also seemed to imply that the influence of the pure-blood family was declining.
In fact, in the movie, the producer really likes this "gradient color" design. For example, Voldemort's robe, as each Horcrux was destroyed, the color of his robe became lighter and lighter.
Third, the status of “honorable”
Finally, Narcissa’s hairstyle fits her status as a “ladies”. In the novel, Narcissa is a person who likes to enjoy and cares about her own image. She has to go to luxury stores in the wizarding world to buy clothes.
She is equivalent to a lady among the witches, and her ordinary hairstyle is naturally inconsistent with her "noble" status. The facts have proved that even Muggles think her hair style is "fashionable," and they have followed suit. So in the wizarding world, Narcissus must also lead the fashion trend.
I have to say,The filmmakers are really interested in Narcissa Malfoy's hair styling.
