So something I have learned since making Sabine’s armor: mandalorian helmets don’t play nice with long hair. If your hair is longer than chin length, it sticks out awkwardly below the helmet. Sure you can put it up, but that’ll mess with how the helmet sits unless you do it exactly right.
That being said…I wonder if short hair was a practical choice as well as an aesthetic one for Sabine. If she’s going to be regularly wearing a helmet, it would have just made sense to keep her hair short enough to not interfere with it.
So therefore if she let her hair get as long as it did…maybe it’s because she wasn’t wearing her armor at all. Maybe when she pulls it out at the end of Ahsoka episode…it’s the first time she’s pulled it out since her parents died. Maybe she didn’t feel worthy of her armor after she wasn’t able to save her family or her planet. Maybe her haircut is a new beginning in more sense that one: it’s an acknowledgment that she’s ready to put on her armor again, and accept her place as a warrior and a mandalorian and maybe even as a Jedi.

Mandalorian Armour Colours
Armour Colour meanings and Classifications
Perhaps it's a little ridiculous, but with more and more fans wanting a full comprehensive guide to colours, and my own frustration at not being able to find the fanon colour charts of old, here we are. For both your sake, and mine, please don't be upset if anyone doesn't utilise this guide, it is after all a guide, and only a fanmade compilation. If anyone has any criticisms, that's what edit is for, and if you want further definition, do not hesitate to let me know in the comments.
The Classicly Accepted;
[This section is the clolours accepted by Canon Media, both Disney and Legends. I will include a colour swatch and the Taubman's pallet code for ease of use. If there are colours you wish to see evaluated, or meanings you wish to infer, let me know.]
[The tiles above are literally the closest I could find to Jaster's colour, and to Boba's visor colours. The left is Red Alert, T12 26.H5, and the right is Crossfire, T15 196.6.]
Red - Ge'tal
'Honouring a parent.' This colour has been seen on the edge of Boba Fett's visor for years, and has been a staple Mandalorian colour for a long time. Honouring a parent is considered acceptable in most forms of Mandalorian Society, hence its widespread use. Honouring does not have to mean morning, and when some Mandalorians move past the grief of a lost loved one, or parent, they move to change the greys to reds, or oranges, in remembrance not of their death, but the life that family member - usually a provider in this case - had lived.
White - Cin
'A new start/Clean slate.' The literal translation for the phrase describing white on armour (Cin Vhetin) is 'White field,' or 'Snow Covoured Field.' It creates the notion that you are starting over, as winter has come, and it covers all that you used to be, allowing you to completely restructure yourself before spring arrives to thaw it, as a totally new person, with new honour and oaths to fulfil. Often associated with adult adoptions, or redemption vows completed, signifying new life.
[The image above features Jaster as he was in the first issue of Jango Fett - Open Seasons. It is accessible (the pic) on wiki, and I'm pretty sure the comic is available on most comic archives. Jaster's colour are, famously, dark grey, black, red and the yellow Haat Mando'ade Crest.]
Black - Ne'tra
Justice - the colour of Mandalorians whose moral code is unshakable. A notable wearer of this colour is Jaster Mereel himself. Most kute are often this colour, or dark blue (navy) and in most cases that is for cost reasons, and to prevent staining. However, black is the colour of night, and of Death - an important concept to all Mandalorian Sects - and creates a sense of uniformity amongst even the most visually different individuals. Justice, Death, and all that this might entail is a corner stone of Mandalorian culture and perception. One cannot live if they do not accept that Death is a possibility. Black can denote serving of justice, seeking justice, or preserving it.
Grey - Genet
'Honouring lost love, or mourning a lost loved one'. The separate shades of Grey have meaning in some Clans and Houses, but across most of Mandalorian Space, Grey is to signify the passing of a loved one. It can even be worn if either a Clan has been lost, or if a member has been excommunicated. There are also occasions of possible ven'riduur wearing the colour when another warrior gets there before them.
[The above image is the reverse of the New Zealand Free State of Niue's reverse coin. Gold does not promote prestige in Mandalorian culture, but danger. If dressed in gold, one is to be weary.]
Gold - Ve'vut
Vengeance, a common place, and important part of Mandalorian Culture and Law. Methods of vengeance are protected and controlled by Mandalorian Law. Acts that go from vengeance to Revenge can face serious consequence. Outsiders that meet warriors in this colour are warned to practice caution. A Mandalorian's wealth is not decided by the colour of their armour, but of their actions, and gold denotes a thirst for vengeance, in a control, personal manner.
[The image to the left is Nocturne Shade, T15 139.6, and the image to the right is Bright Cerulean, T15 138.7. I included a vivid and deep blue to show the scope of what is considered baseline, before entering Light Blue, Sky Blue, or Navy. I chose as close as I could to Jango Fett's armour, and both Paz Vizsla, and Vizsla House.]
Blue - Kebiin
Reliability, a warrior and Mandalorian who is secure in who they are, what they are capable of, and what they have to offer the galaxy. Warriors in their prime often wear this colour. It is often taken as a show of subtle faith and loyalty to whichever leader these particular Mandalorians serve. Blue is also often worn by mercenaries and Journeyman to create a sense of calm and trust between them and their charges. Blue is often seen as a solid, and dependable colour, and associated with leadership, and their support. Blue is the colour of the Mandalorian Protectors Universal Sigil. Parents who are raising children alone also wear this colour, as a way of reinforcing the belief that they can care for their child alone - a rare occurrence in Mandalorian Space.
Orange -
lust for life, shereshoy
[The colour to the right is literally as close as I could get to Boba Fett's armour. The image on the left is Irish Stone, T15 164.7, and the right is Deep Veridian, T10 54F-2.]
Green - Vorpan
Duty - often considered the workers' colour, green represents hard work, and deep commitment to a cause, a task, an ideal, or an action. Many members of the Fett House predominantly wear this colour as a nod to their humble beginnings, and many farmers and tradespeople wear some small segment of green to denote their occupation. The kind of green, and the way it is worn can also denote different trades and employment types, although like with most colours, each mandalorian is ultimately able to make decisions for themself on what their colours mean to them.
The Observed and Official Greater House uses;
[This section is for Fanon, or non-official colours. The Mandalorian Mercs and other cosplay groups have commonly accepted colour codes, as do some sections of the Fanfic writing community. If anyone has any colour ideas, do let me know, and feel free to leave a link to other colour charts in the notes! It's my ambition to make sourcing knowledge on Mandalorian culture easier and easier for newer fans.]
[Image for Beskar Silver was taken from the Etsy Adds for Beskar Ingots. There are multiple companies and craftspeople that make these - vey cool! I can not let myself buy any. I can not!!!]
Silver - Beskar
The Colour of unpainted beskar, the associated meanings are either that you have not had the chance to paint it, or if you are in full, evidently in use armour, that you have no right to wear paint. It is the assumed non-colours of the Silver Children (An Elite Group of Mandalorian Ori'ramikade) and the Naasaade (the Nameless Society, a group of Mandalorians who have either been put towards the path of redemption by order, or by choice) and of many bounty hunters of the Outer Rim who seek to keep their clan affiliations a secret. It is widely believed that if any Mandalorian is to have honour, it is one in silver, as it infers that this particular Mandalorian will do all that is possible to be seen as honourable once more by themselves, others, their clan, and the Ka'ra.
[The image on the left is Blue Booties (I know right?), T15 142.1, and the image on the right is Reflection, T15 142.2. I included an eggshell blue, and a powder, almost greenish pale blue. I even checked the definition of Cyan for you. Essentially, really light teal, like, really light.]
Cyan, or Sky Blue -
'New Love', often used as the symbol of engagement. Most Mandalorians cannot afford to exchange and modify pieces of their armour from one partner to another, and so instead of this practice from the eras of battlefield weddings, most unmarried warriors are encouraged to carry a small vial of this colour paint instead. This is a practice seen more amongst the traditionalists, who believe in earning armour on your own merit, and not upon the backs of others. Other methods of using this colour is in Cyan Beads upon your kute, or the addition of decorative cord upon a warrior's shoulder to denote engagement, or new marriage.
The Two Shades of Purple
[Purple is a difficult colour. Caught between red and blue, and having so many varied shades and meanings across both Mandalore, and the fandom, I've done my best to create the general feel of what purple means to a culture obsessed with living life to the fullest, and honouring your oaths.]
[Image on the left has Imperial Violet, T15 211.4, and the image on the right has Purple Statice, T15 210.5. I grabbed both a warm and cool variety for those of you with colour schemes to match. Purple is a colour often associated in fandom with chance, hope, and luck.]
a) Lavender, or Violet
The colour of luck and chance, Violet and Lavender are supposed to be a sign of recognition and faith to the old Mandalorian God and Spirit of Luck, and although belief in the Gods has long since faded, folklore still holds most shades of lighter purple as the colour of chance, change, and good futures. It is a common colour for new parents wishing to do right by their children.
[Image on the left is Imperial Purple, T15 213.7, and the image on the right is Royal Indigo, T15 130.7. Again, I have used both warm and cool shades to allow as much versatility as possible with colour palletes.]
b) Indigo
Often considered the colour of hope, Indigo and its shades are often used to mean the same things as other shades of purple, and when paired with colours such as Cyan, and Teal, or even most forms of blue, is meant to inspire a sense of gratitude, or gratefulness for victory, present peace, currently good fortune and such, whilst lighter shades are meant to bring said fortune.
[Image on the left is Tapestry Teal, T15 153.6, and the image on the right is Lagoon Teal, T15 153.5. Both Teals are on the lighter side, but you can absolutely go darker in this colour and have the same meaning.]
Teal -
Considered the unofficial colours of the New Mandalorians, the colour was originally worn only by medics, emergency workers, and those who had retired from active combat. It was supposed to be the colour of those who had seen violence, and stood up to atrocities in the name of peace. It is now considered a cowards colour amoungst Kyrtsaade circles, and New Mandalorians forbade its application in armour as a falsehood and a breaking of the Healers Code. However, Traditionalists and Way Followers still view it as the colour of choice for more reserved, shrewd verde who fight as a last resort.
[images above are to the left, Minty Green, T15 165.3, and to the right, Sherbet Lime, T15 167.3. Once again, included a warm and cool option.]
Light Green -
'Lust for peace', 'The Guardian', or 'Peace Keeper's Colours'. Often used by warriors who practice non-lethal forms of combat - guards that utilise stun batons and blanks instead of live ammunition. Under the New Mandalorians, it became indistinguishable from Teal and its meanings, but in all other forms of Mandalorian culture, Light Green is used for warriors and guards of sacred r special places, such as schools, hospitals, or the water ways. Light Green is a deeply respected, and widely used colour, even if its meaning has been watered down and misinterpreted by the galaxy at large.
Yellow - Shi'yayc
Dark Green
Dark Blue
Tan
Brown
Cream/Beige
Maroon and Burgundy
[I couldn't pick one... Image above contains Baby Girl, Pigtail Pink, River Rouge, Spring Pink, Jaguar Rose, After the Dance, Flamenco Fire, Turkish Delight, Pink Flambe, Pink Clay Pot, Bold Flame and Strawberry Splash. The codes are found on Taubmans website.]
Pink -
Respect, Knowledge, and Respected. Interestingly, pink in Mandalorian Space is a colour of status, as a unification of white and red, it combines the ideas of horouring those that raised you, and your new beginnings, and the outcome became the colour pink. Different shades mean different things in the more secular coverts, but it is important to note that field archivists, officers, and journalists have a tendency to wear at least some pink.
Additional Colours and Varieties;
Metallics
Mattes and Gloss
Patterning
Symbols of the Mandalorians;
The symbols used in Mandalore are vast, and complicated, and often the colour can change the meaning of the symbol. Colour is, as always, up to the discretion and particular tastes of the Mandalorian in question, but there are common associations, and symbols mandated for use by specific beings.
[Extrapolation will be added]
--------------
[Wrote this for my own use, and as a guide on mainstream Mandalore and the subsects we might actually see in Disney media (can you see me distancing their bizarre writing from myself? can you??) after all, the official website lists Din's armour as grey? What?? Bro, no.]
Resources;
The only copy of the old Fan Canon List I could find:
[Fanon List in image is as follows; Purple - Luck, Pink - Respected or Respecting Someone, White - Purity, Brown - Valor, Maroon - Power, Light Green - Lust for Peace, Scarlet - Defiance, Silver - Seeking Redemption, Yellow - Remembrance, Teal - Healing.]
Found on Pinterest. It used to part of one of the cosplay forums, but I can no longer find it. It runs off old canon. There are some issues with the list, but ah well.
Mandalorian Mercs Forum; [here]
They're rather official, and a great deal of their stuff is incredibly helpful, but I find their website hard to navigate. Probably just me though.
Mandalorian Wikipedia Colours; [here]
It doesn't have any of the extended fanon colours, but it dos have an in depth expose on what colour canon and EU Legends has provided us with.
Mando'a Translator; [here]
Not entirely sure how well it works, but it does simple words fine. Its sentence structure is terrible, just like all translate apps, so be warned.
Mando'a Dictionary and Forum; [here]
This Mando'a dictionary has got to be the most comprehensive I have found, however there are still mistakes. The only reason I know that is I printed the whole thing and read it like some kind of nerd.
Mandalorian Colour Definition found on Tumblr;[here]
This one is made by another user, I am unsure of their sources, but it matches closely with a great deal that I have found, so it’s pretty accurate so far.
Another Handy Mando'a forum; here
If there are any other helpful websites and links you can think of, let me know. The Codex will have reference to this chart at some stage, but I'll get to that later. I'm just religiously ignoring the Mandalorian Cookbook I started whilst sick last year. You never hear of it, it never existed.
[I will update this as I make further research.]

Known C A N O N facts about the Mandalorians:
A) Overall, they do not view/value "gender" in the same way other cultures in SW (or those in our own world) do.
B) Color symbolism, paint design and the amount of beskar you have on your armor is viewed as a main/sole identifier of a Mandalorian.
C) Mando'a, the language of the Mandalorians, does not have gender signifiers. Mando'a is a gender neutral language.
D) Your gender, your sexuality, your race, your previous life, etc does NOT matter after you have sworn the Mandalorian Creed. You are a Mandalorian and will always be Mandalorian, unless you violate your Creed.
-Cin vhetin: a fresh start/clean slate. Literally means "white field."
-Gar taldin ni jaonyc; gar sa buir, ori'wadaas'la: "Nobody cares who your father/parent was, only the father/parent you will be."
-Aliit ori'shya tal'din: "Family is more than blood."
In conclusion, the only thing Mandalorians really care about is how skilled of a warrior you are and how loyal you keep yourself to your creed. They do not give a fuck what your gender identity is or who you choose to fuck.
To put it more simply: Can you hit real good? Do you have honor? Okay then.
Verd ori'shya beskar'gam: "A warrior is more than their armor"
Tldr; I'm getting really tired of people trying to act like the Mandalorians as a whole would have a problem with a trans/nonbinary person being a fellow Mando. The answer is no. No, they would not.
(Update: Meant to also say the same fucking goes for your sexuality, but I feel like I'm just beating a dead horse at this moment. You guys get the fucking point)

The Planet Ordo
(95% of this is fanon)
A terrestrial planet with a breathable atmosphere, Ordo consists mainly of rocky deserts, most of the water is in underground rivers and a few lakes, Ordo has a decent amount of vegetation around the equator, the cassius tree* is native to ordo, the largest settlement is Morutorchoruk*, more commonly referred to as Morutor, an imposing fortress carved into the cliffside that serves as the ancestral home of Clan Ordo, Another notable region is the darklands, a region in ordos northeast characterized by its large amount of volcanoes and black sand, the volcanoes in this region produce a mineral known as Ciridium, which is used in the forging of superalloys such as phrik, cortosis and beskar, the people native to ordo tend to be rather tall*** with fair skin, round or square faces, high cheekbones, brown or black hair, and gray eyes, they have grim, stoic personalities and an unbreakable will, as well as a love of alcohol and history. People from ordo also use the classical mando'a dialect,
* (the florets of which are used to make cassius tea)
**(roughly translates to “castle in stone”),
***(6 foot 3 inches is the average)
Edit : I intend to remake this post at some point, so keep an eye out

i just had an epiphany: Mandalorians use a base 5 number system.
The most obvious evidence is that rayshe’a is five, t’ad is two, and ta’raysh (literally two’five) is ten, but there’s also the other numbers. Resol (six, like the Resol’nare) derives its prefix, re but likely pronounced as ray, from rayshe’a, and its suffix sol from solus. E’tad (seven), the e coming from rayshe’a, translating to five’two. She’ehn (five’three) and she’cu (five’four) deriving from rayshe’a. From that, I’d extrapolate that eleven would be ta’resol, twelve would be ta’raysh’tad, thirteen would be ta’raysh’ehn, fourteen would be ta’raysh’cu, and fifteen would be ehn’raysh, and the later numbers would follow that pattern.
Does this have any, like, cultural implications? Fuck if I know, I’m not a scientist or mathematician. It could come from the idea that if you have a weapon in one hand you only have five fingers to count on, but that seems almost like stereotyping Mandalorians? And I guess it might have relevance to armor measurements and the chemistry of smithing, or other Mandalorian practices, and it would be interesting to see how foundlings adapted to an entirely new mathematical system.

Baby Yoda & Bounty Hunters:
Why The Mandalorian is the Best Show Ever.
It would be an understatement to say that "The Mandalorian" has revolutionized television, especially for "Star Wars" fans. Since its launch on Disney+, the show has garnered an enormous global following, becoming a beacon of hope for viewers who were yearning for a fresh perspective on the cherished "Star Wars" universe. But what exactly makes "The Mandalorian" the best show ever? Let's delve deeper into this.
The Embodiment of the Original Star Wars Spirit
The heart of "The Mandalorian" lies in its ability to encapsulate the original spirit of the "Star Wars" saga. It delivers a perfect blend of new-age storytelling while paying homage to the vintage spaghetti-western & Kurosawa feel of the original trilogy. This serves as a powerful nostalgia trigger for the original fans while simultaneously appealing to new generations. From cantina brawls to high-speed spaceship chases, "The Mandalorian" is a fitting tribute to George Lucas’s vision that started it all.
Storytelling and Character Development
At its core, "The Mandalorian" is a character-driven series. The protagonist, Din Djarin, more commonly known as the Mandalorian or Mando, evolves brilliantly through the episodes. His character development is complex and compelling, with the story masterfully intertwining his enigmatic past, his hardened bounty hunter persona, and his unexpected paternal bond with Grogu (popularly known as Baby Yoda). These narrative layers provide depth and emotion that resonate with audiences, leaving them hungry for more.
Revitalizing Star Wars Lore
"The Mandalorian" also rejuvenates "Star Wars" lore by exploring uncharted territories and delving deeper into the culture of the enigmatic Mandalorians. The series' narrative weaves into the crevices left untouched by the mainline "Star Wars" films, filling gaps in the universe's history and mythos. This expansion of the lore not only attracts avid fans but also enhances the richness of the "Star Wars" universe.
Innovative Filmmaking Techniques
One cannot deny the impact of the revolutionary filmmaking techniques used in "The Mandalorian." The use of a real-time rendering system, known as StageCraft technology, takes visual effects to a new level. This technology offers a 360-degree LED video wall that can simulate realistic backgrounds and environments, providing a more immersive viewing experience and showcasing Disney's commitment to pushing the boundaries of entertainment technology.
youtube
Compelling Performances and Guest Appearances
Pedro Pascal's performance as the Mandalorian is remarkable. He manages to express a wide range of emotions despite his face being hidden behind a helmet for most of the series. Additionally, the series benefits from an impressive roster of guest stars, including Hollywood Legends like Carl Weathers and Rosario Dawson, to name a few. Their performances, combined with the show's outstanding writing, make every episode a cinematic event.
Standout Music Score
The score of "The Mandalorian," crafted by Ludwig Göransson, is nothing short of spectacular. It perfectly blends the classic "Star Wars" style with a unique, fresh sound that echoes the show's premise. The soundtrack is an auditory delight that evokes the right emotions at the right moments, further enhancing the show's appeal.
youtube
To conclude, "The Mandalorian" is not just a television series; it is a testament to the evolution of storytelling, a blend of the old and the new, and a love letter to fans of "Star Wars." Through its exceptional storytelling, character development, expansion of lore, groundbreaking technology, stellar performances, and captivating score, it has established itself as the best show ever. Whether you are a die-hard "Star Wars" fan or a newcomer to this universe, "The Mandalorian" offers an unforgettable journey that you won't regret embarking on.

Do you want to know when the battles of the Mandalorian Wars happened? What the worlds were like, and what the nearest hyperlane was? Check this out!
Starting at the end of the Great Sith War, and ending at Malachor (with a little summary of what comes immediately after), and from the more Mandalorian point of view - so the Revanchists are in it, but not many details of internal Jedi politics.

Am I turning my whole schtick into "the guy who knows too much about Tarre Vizsla?"
Cause I feel like for a character with little to no screen presence, I've been having to bat harder for him in the past 3 days than I have for literally any other SW character ever.
Even more so than Anakin.
I mean, I know why I personally care about Tarre so much. But like ... I wasn't expecting people to just keep forgetting the most obvious, in your face fact about him: he's a motherfucking Jedi and never stopped being one, even after he became Manda'lor.
I feel like I have to set up a Tarre Vizsla shrine and a basic information pamphlet for whoever stumbles across my Mandalorian-Monty Python shitpost now wtf

Mandalorian Proverb: Fortune Cookie Edition
“Adversity reveals genius, prosperity conceals it.”
In the old Mandalorian religion there was the destroyer war god Kad Ha’rangir was the god who represented universal growth and change while Arasuum was the sloth god that represented sloth and idleness. These two gods were the most important of Mandalorian beliefs, adversity was the progression of the culture, clan and oneself while being peaceful was falling behind, never growing or developing and was viewed as a disgrace.
Adversity reveals genius, prosperity conceals it.
Growth and change is found after the destruction of something both metaphorically and realistically, fighting always challenges one’s views and beliefs without growth we would never learn even in horrific events it’s challenges us to learn how to keep it from happening again. Adversity is the essence of life progressing us but when we grow to fat in our riches we become complacent and no longer pay attention to the battles in front of us and we move backwards, to at ease with the security to stop seeing.

I read somewhere once while looking up Mandalorian lore that instead of jewelry Mandos get tattoos because it's less of a risk in combat. Which has now led to:
True Mandalorians and Deathwatch get old school tap tattoos that decorate their scars and make those scars stand out more since they're badges of honor and deserve to be recognized. A lot of them also get marriage tattoos.
All of my Mandalorian OCs have them, but Teva esp has a tattoo behind both ears from their hearing implants being put in. Even as a kid receiving those implants they were very adamant about wanting to keep whatever scars came from them and to have those decorated.
