Celestia had pink hair?


Quiz Flight

Recommended Posts

 My faithful subjects,

 

It's been shown in the mlp series pictures of princess celestia with pink hair, however in the Equestrian flag she can be shown with green based hair as shown in current episodes. Is it possible that in earlier years of celestia that she had a pink colored mane? I like to believe so, what about you guys?

It's like how Princess Luna had a light blue hair color instead of her starry night mane. It's because of how young she was and she didn't have all of the magic as she does now as an adult. As for the green hair I have no idea what you are talking about

Maybe as a filly, at least in original canon.

 

See, recently I've come up with a theory that originally, Celestia and Luna were supposed to be fillies when the whole Nightmare Moon thing went down - but that S2's redesign of Luna, and S4's flashbacks, retconned that away.

 

The reason I think this is because S1 Luna looks like the Luna in the pilot's "picture book" opening, and Faust once said (pre-S2, I think) that she saw Luna as not being fully grown yet, but that when she was an adult she wouldn't look the same as Nightmare Moon. So maybe the idea was that Luna's aging was frozen during her moon trip (while Celestia kept aging). That would make pink mane Celestia how she looked as a filly.

 

Faust also said she imagined that when the Nightmare Moon thing went down, Celestia and Luna were living together in the Everfree castle, possibly with their parents. Living with their parents... That might maybe mean they weren't adults yet, but it's not really conclusive.

Celstia's hair has a mostly green base. Which can be shown in equestria's flag, however in books and stained glass the show shows celestia's mane with a pink based color.

Wait.

When was Celestia's pink mane made canon? I have never seen a legitimate screenshot from the show showing it.

Never in the actual show artstyle, but it was in the storybook opening of S1E1, at least. You know, with the fairy tale about the two sisters?

Is this the picture that you're thinking of?

Part of it. I think she's shown as pink maned during that whole intro.

 

Looking back at that pic you posted, they look to be the same size, too. Considering S1 Luna was smaller (and like I said, Faust thought of her as not being fully grown yet) this adds to my "they were originally meant to be fillies" idea.

Oh yeah! Pink haired Celestia! I wish we could see that in the show's style. We've seen young Luna, but we need young Celestia too!  :love:

Yeah, retcons are a weird thing.

 

I never know what to think of the sister's ethereal hair.

One fan theory was that they got it from the first time they used the Elements of Harmony, another is that it's just proof of their immortality. And yet another joke theory is that they have that hair just because, as in any pony can have that hair if they want it (and Luna gels her hair with twilight sparkles, lol).

I still think it's cool though.
