I think for her it's a combination of feeling trapped by how everyone expects her to look, and sensory issues from her hair/dress. Since this is causing so much inner turmoil, she doesn't feel she befits the triforce of wisdom- surely she should have all the answers? And just to make matters worse she can tell that her feelings towards other woman aren't just platonic, doesn't she need to marry so there's a king too?

She sees Link as having so much courage for being true to himself, and wishes she could do the same

No one expects that the legendary swordsman is actually the trans sheikah that's always by the princesses side, not even him

Trying out a different fringe for him too

She would feel nervous after first changing up her style, but doesn't let this show to anyone but Link

Link is mute because that's one of my favourite headcanons for him

Some sketches here of a possible design, he would be assigned to work with Zelda directly. I've already got some fun ideas for her

And yes braids would Not be very practical in a fight, but god I love them too much
