I have also grown a real Padawan braid. It took me an entire year to grow it. I started in March 2016, and by the end of the summer you could see it, but it was still small.

I’ve also met people with their own Padawan braid. MCGREGOR: You also had the [hair] on the back as well. CHRISTENSEN: You had to grow your hair so they could attach, and the rest was very short.

Natalie Portman kept an unusual souvenir from her time in the Star Wars galaxy: Anakin Skywalker's Padawan braid from Attack of the Clones.
