Her Gone Life

If you've seen Disney's Moana then you know one of the amazing effects in the movie is all the hair. It's looks so real blowing in the wind and under water.

The character Maui himself has a full head of awesome hair. But what if things were different and he didn't?!

In this video clip from the Voice of the Islands bonus feature on the Disney Moana Blu-ray, the filmmakers shared the importance of Maui hair and why he's not bald. *gasp*

This is just one behind the scene clips you can enjoy on the Moana Blu-ray 3D™, Blu-ray, DVD and On-Demand on March 7.
