Duchess RavenWaves reigns over Tangleland, but that is not enough for her, so she is always scheming to take over the kingdom of LovelyLocks. She hopes to achieve this by trying to cut off some of Lady LovelyLocks' magical hair and so gain the princess' powers. Sometimes the duchess gets close to succeeding, but she never quite does.

Official info
Through sheer arrogance and supreme vanity, the evil Duchess RavenWaves has decided that she more than anyone else deserves to be called the most beautiful girl in the world. However, her striking good looks are on the surface only, and her very long, raven-black hair reflects light from the outside rather than shimmering with a shine of its own. Jealousy is never pretty, but Duchess RavenWaves doesn’t understand that the real beauty of Lady LovelyLocks comes from within, and no magic potion, hair color, or frizzy perm will ever be able to match that.
This prideful girl has confused beauty with extravagance and royal majesty with tacky luxury. Her competition with Lady LovelyLocks has caused her to overdo and exaggerate everything. Tangleland, her home, is a very dry and unsightly place because she spends more time on herself than taking care of her land. The resulting static electricity fills her hair whenever she gets angry, causing little sparks to fly every time she touches something. This of course does nothing to improve her conceited personality.
Duchess RavenWaves has retained the loyalties of the small, bad-tempered Comb Gnomes. In return for their help in conquering the Kingdom of LovelyLocks, she has promised them beautiful hair. They do whatever she tells them, for they see her as their only chance to become lovelier than their rivals, the PixieTails. But as long as there is no inner beauty in any of their hearts, try as they might, they will never become truly beautiful.

Scissors!
Duchess Ravenwaves has the coolest hair!!!! Although, it may just be me, but wouldn't you have to be a little bit crazy to go around chasing someone around with a pair of scissors trying to cut someone's hair off?
Just a thought.........
But I still reckon the Duchess is the best!!!
poor raven waves. her
poor raven waves. her mother was never there to teach her not to play with scissors. I wonder if she does her own laundry... O_O
Another issue..
What happend to Ravenwaves's Father? You never hear of him in the story.
Hmmm...makes you wonder
Hmmm...makes you wonder doesn't it? I wonder if she has any friends? I mean apart from Hairball and the Comb Gnomes......
Our Duchess...
I love Duchess Ravenwaves, I actually found her more lovely than Lady. I mean hello! Not only is she evil, but she's drop dead beautiful! Her long hair, that dress and her voice are really staples that should not be viewed as evil, but just another side of beauty.
Anyway, I support the Duchess!!!

Re: The spanish name of duchess
Cool! Thanks for the info!
My favorite!
For some reason, I always loved Duchess RavenWaves much more than Lady Lovelylocks - I think it's because her dress was purple - my favorite color when I was a child! I wish she could have won at least once!
Me too
I always wished she could have won once, too. SO PRETTY! My best friend and I actually started coming up with a story in which she actually managed to kill Lady, a long long time ago... We were messed up children.
Looks like Snow White!!
Ithink she looks like a different version of Snow White!! What do you think?
