Analysis (whoo, scientific): This style is practically certainly all fake hair. The hair is twisted into hundreds of tiny, extremely tight spirals? dreadlocks? I'm not quite sure. Many of them have beads strung on them. The headdress hides the top of the head and the beginning of the twist-things, so you can't see how they're started. The twists seem to vary in length somewhat, with some being short and others quite long.
Directions: I debated whether I should even try this one, then I decided to give it a shot. I ended up only twisting a couple dreadlock things before realizing it would take me years. I threaded a few beads on the twists for the fun of it. The headdress is yet another lovely construction paper creation. The twists don't want to stay tightly twisted; I'm not sure how they got the originals to look that way. You could probably get a similar look by braiding your hair into a lots of tiny braids. Either way, it's a hugely time-consuming hairstyle for a style that didn't even make it into the movie!
