According to the Anne of Green Gables treasury, Anne dyed her hair in 1879. She would have been 12 or 13. Anne was a voracious reader and being that Little Women was published in 1868-69 the novel was probably something she would have read. I always thought that the comment Anne made was a direct reference to both Louisa May Alcott and her novel Little Women.

i also think in a way anne’s hair loss is also an independence thing. it just is a messier side of it, where jo gets to do it for something noble, anne does it out of insecurity and that means the results are worse, just like growing up and becoming independent. when you do things for the wrong reasons you get the wrong outcome.

In Anne of Avonlea, Charlotta the 4th makes a comment about having read a book where a man thought he wanted this one girl but it turned out he really wanted her sister. I always took this as a Little Women reference!

Thank you so much for this response! Not familiar with the de Maupassant story but it also reminds me of O. Henry’s “Gift of the Magi” with the hair and watch chain exchange.

We don’t actually need to infer really that she read little women or at least not just from that. Apparently it was well known that she was a fan of Alcott’s work and she actually visited Alcott Home and wrote about it in her journals.

It's so cool that you're connecting stories this way, this is what critical readers do. Historically women sold their hair I wouldn't say frequently, but it wasn't uncommon. It wasnt frequent enough to be everyone you knew, but if you were middle or lower class you'd know at least 1 person who did, especially in urban areas. Hair is a symbol of femininity and when Jo cuts her hair to gain financial independence she looses the socially prescribed femininity for that. It's in books/stories all over the place. From a literature-degree-holding English teacher.

I have naturally red hair and ppl have always had a weird sense of entitlement (for lack of a better word) to it. “You better never dye it!” “You better never cut it!” Etc. When I finally chopped it off all I could think of was Jo March “Oh Jo, your one beauty” That’s how I’ve always felt about it bc I get compliments often and I’m genuinely afraid I’m gonna have an identity crisis when my hair turns white and I’m no longer a “red head”. Hair is so tied to our identity as women, I love this niche for you and never really thought about it this way before

Historic Knox Kreutzer House :
It was a cultural norm for girls to cut thier hair to thier shoulders around age 12. This is still done in some American (mainly small religious communities) cultures. It was so ingrained for centuries, and a girl "choosing" was significant.
