{a thread}

I& #39;ve been wanting to write this thread for a long time, about how Anne& #39;s relationship with her hair changes with time.

-"What color would you call this?
- It& #39;s red, isn& #39;t it?
- Yes, it& #39;s red... Now you see why I can& #39;t be perfectly happy. Nobody could who has red hair... It& #39;s... My lifelong sorrow."

{season 1 - episode 1}

#renewannewithane

"Do you want to know what my big concern is ? My overriding concern ? […] It& #39;s this awful red hair. This horrible hideous horrible red hair ! It& #39;s the bane of my existence. […] And my freckles. I hate my freckles."

{season 1 - episode 3}

#renewannewithane

-"What wonderful red hair. You& #39;re the Cuthbert& #39;s new charge, aren& #39;t you ?
- Yes...
- I& #39;ve heard nice things about you."

{season 1 - episode 5}

#renewannewithane

-"Of course you must be Elaine, Anne.
- Oh, it would be ridiculous to have a redheaded Elaine. It ought to be Ruby. She has lovely, golden hair and Elaine had « all her bright hair streaming down »."

{season 2 - episode 4}

#renewannewithane

-"It& #39;s decorative. For beauty& #39;s sake. Even birds have pretty plumage, Marilla.
- Plumage, fiddlesticks.
- I know you don& #39;t understand, or even imagine, but if you had red hair you would want to cover it too !"

{season 2 - episode 5}

#renewannewithane

"I wish I were a tree. Then I would have different hair for every season. I would have pretty spring buds and a full head of blossoms in summer... vibrant autumn colors, and then.... Never mind."

{season 2 - episode 5}

#renewannewithane

"I know it& #39;s foolish to want to be anything other than what I am, but I cant& #39; help it. I love pretty things."

{season 2 - episode 5}

#renewannewithane

"I wonder if the other foxes ever twit you about your hair. You& #39;re always alone. Don& #39;t you have a sweetheart ? Maybe we& #39;re just meant to be solitary creatures, you and I. Just so you know, you& #39;re very beautiful !"

{season 2 - episode 5}

#renewannewithane

"Do you think this will turn my hair a beautiful raven black ? My red hair is the bane of my existence. And raven hair is my life-long dream."

{season 2 - episode 5}

#renewannewithane

"Dearest Snow Queen, how you must miss your blossoms in the winter. Now I know just how you feel."

{season 2 - episode 6}

#renewannewithane

-"I made a promise... never to forsake thee. Besides... it& #39;s only hair. It& #39;ll grow back soon.
- Not nearly soon enough."

{season 2 - episode 6}

#renewannewithane

-"I& #39;d like us to agree that any conversation about my hair is off-limits.
- I already saw your haircut.
- And I& #39;m saying I don& #39;t wish to discuss it.
- You& #39;re the one talking about it, not me.
- Fine. So then drop it.
- I never picked it up."

{season 2 - ep 6}

#renewannewithane

-"She says your hair looks like the earth. I think It looks like... fire !
- I appreciate your elemental compliments. I like my hair better now because of them."

{season 3 - episode 1}

#renewannewithane

"Princess Cordelia, with raven hair that had once been the colour of carrots, laughed as she escaped through the haunted woods."

{season 3 - episode 2}

#renewannewithane

-"There is one face who follows you with curiosity. When he looks at you, his eyes overflow. Like two cups filled above the brim.
- His eyes ? Can you see his face ? Am I there ? Am I older ? Does my hair look more auburn ? Who is he ?"

{season 3 - episode 6}

#renewannewithane

"Red hair... this book is the missing piece of the puzzle."

{season 3 - episode 10}

"Dear Gilbert,
I look like my mother..."
