Disney+ 2025
I was brought on briefly back in 2021 to do some very very early explorations of Ariel 🧜🏿♀️. It was a privilege to be able to revisit a childhood favorite even for a brief moment in time! 2025 Ariel had a large inspiration on Halle Bailey. Reference below on how I approached various looks for her. Enjoy!
We wanted to bring in the charming intricate hairstyles that Halle has had throughout the years while maintaining the charm of a little girl that will be loved by many! A key thing I had to keep in mind was how the hair would work in water and the movement it would bring into the CG show.
