hem hem Tonks is obviously not an auror of the Right Sort since she sides with Dumbledore in alarming people with fibs about reborn dark wizards. The Dark Lord and I will permanently scar her and after forcing her to survey her wrecked visage, subject her to the Cruciatus curse so that she cracks!

I also pictured her with shorter hair, but oh well, I like it alot though

I like the color but I wish it was shorter.I pictured it cut short like a boy's and spikey.Not long.But it's still cool.

ok everyone i think we covered the fact that her hair should be shorter and pink...cant you all think of anythinggggg else to say?!

Me 2. I also thought it would be sorta spiked.

I'm Definitly Dissapointed

Wicked!! I love the way she looks! I hope they do make it shorter later on.. at least... I always imagined her with a really short pixie cut.

Hmm what happened to short spiky hair?...ah well Tonks is gonna be my fave charrie and I gotta get used to it

I imagined her hair would be a lot shorter. But it looks good ;)

I expected a brighter purple, it's seems too dull and too long... I always pictured Tonks to have bright pink, short spikey hair.

I figured it was something other than the first scene they were filming since it wasn't short and pink. She's a metamorphmagi, afterall which I think most of the commenters seem to have forgotten. Just because it's short and pink at one point in the story, doesn't mean it stays that way and JK made sure to remind us of this.

These are the only sensible comments that've been posted ^^^ [Along with the ever graceful Kris]. Tonks is a METAMORPHAMAGI, her hair changes constantly. Just because the US artist chose to depict her with short pink hair doesn't mean it's always like that. JKR goes to great lengths to describe how Tonks CONSTANTLY changes her apparance.

I'm beginning to wonder whether any of you read OotP. Maybe a re-read is in order...[no pun intended]...

Yeah, it should be a tiny bit shorter...but that ish an AWESOME shade of purple!!!!! :woot:

I agree with everyone, I imagined the hair to be shorter and although it's a tiny pic she looks a bit older than what I imagine Tonks to be. But I like the purple hair.

I'd really like to know where it states that her hair is short because I could've sworn that she changes it multiple times throughout the novel.

*sigh*

Natalia is only 22. If auror training takes a few years, then she's spot on for Tonk's age.

I like the hair! Though that shade of purple isn't my fav. :P But I'd like to see her go from short hair to really long hair and back. It would totally confused all the peeps who haven't read teh books.

I realize that she changes hairstyles throughout the novel, it's just that the trademark short pink hair is the first image that comes to mind when I think of Tonks. I wonder though how many hair changes she'd get for the film...I want to see the 'old lady' disguise she changes into when she escorts Harry and Co. back to school.

I remember Natalia from "About a Boy"...haven't seen any recent films/pics of her so I guess I'm still thinking about how young she looked in that film.

teehee. i like it, altho ya it needs to be shorter. i can't wait to see her with short, spikey pink hair.

Thing is, that trademark is established partly by the illustrations (which aren't the same globally) and partly by fanon. I'd understand the fuss, except it's prefectly acceptable for her to have varying styles. Whereas, in contrast, Harry looks vastly different in the films, from canon, and yet no-one causes a stink about that. It's funny in the ironic sense.

Tonks doesn't have a set hairstyle, period.

Yeah, I imagined it to be a lot like Madam Hooch's haircut, but pink. Still it's nice to see Natalie Tena dressed up as Tonks and she looks pretty.

I like the color, but I, like so many here, pictured it shorter than it is. But, I LOVE the look! She looks perfect young, like she's a new Auror. I think her outfit is absolutely on the dot. I think she has the perfect look for Tonks, and I can't wait!

And I actually agree with Emma. I'm actually more annoyed with Harry's hairstyle rather than Tonks's simply because though Dan has gone for the long hairstyle, they've never given him the trademark, uncontrollable, messy hair that Harry's had in the books since day 1. I think though we all have had it set in our minds, I think it's a great look, and it's suitable since she's a Metamorphagus anyway. Plus, you never know: She may end up having a short, pink hairdo somewhere in the film!

Thanks Lissy!

Shannon :hello:

I AM SOOO HAPPY WE KEEP ON GETTING PICS!anywhoo yeah i thought her hair would be shorter and spiky but i still think she looks good:yes:
