In one of many final episodes of Star Wars: Rebels, Jedi Kanan Jarrus units off to rescue the Insurgent chief (and his lover) Hera Syndulla, who has been captured by Grand Admiral Thrawn. Involved that this affection for her is clouding his judgment, he performs a ritualistic hair-cutting not not like when padawans chop off their braids when turning into masters.
Many consider Kanan giving himself a Bushwick mullet is supposed to suggest his readiness to progress to the following a part of his life, maybe prepared to sacrifice himself to avoid wasting the lady he loves. Which, spoiler alert, he does, dying later that very episode whereas holding again a large explosion from a ship carrying Hera, Ezra, and Sabine.
Sabine’s haircut ritual follows Kanan’s nearly precisely—when you watch the video above, you’ll be able to see that Kanan kneels down earlier than a desk, locations the masks he wears on it (like Sabine does together with her helm), grabs a knife, holds it out in entrance of him, after which chops his ponytail off. Sabine’s haircut signifies her willingness to rejoin Ahsoka as her padawan, and return down the trail of the Jedi.
