Edward's hair color: Let's crack the mystery once and for all
I know, I know, it's a small detail, but it bugs me because I want to try to paint him: What EXACTLY is Edward's hair color? What does it look like?
Let's sum up the evidence:
- In the books, it's most often called bronze
- But in several instances, it's also referred to as copper
- But Bree Tanner calls Edward the redhead (because she doesn't know his name)
- In the movie, Robert Pattinson has auburn(ish) hair in the first movie and brown in the rest - which, obviously, doesn't fit the books
The books emphasize that Edward's hair color is unique. The only thing I think we can safely establish that it isn't light ginger, but more on a darker side of red.
If there are any hairstylists/hairdressers among you, I'd love to hear your thoughts on what Edward's hair color could look like. And if anybody else wants to chime in, please, do! Also, if you have any pictures that you think look like Edward's hair, feel free to add them.
