Another Merchandise-Driven animated series from the 1980s.

The show told the tale of pretty blonde-haired Princess Lady Lovely Locks and her Fairy Companions the Pixietails. Most of what they have to worry about comes from the evil Duchess Ravenwaves who wants to take over the land Lovely Locks rules.

As an aside, if you can't guess from just this setup, the whole franchise was very hard going if you happened to be a Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette and/or potential Goth.

The show also concerned a family of friendly dragons and something about a prince who turns into a dog. Yeah.

Tropes used in Lady Lovely Locks include:

All Trolls Are Different - This one can change size!
Alliterative Name - Lady Lovely Locks
Animesque - Production duties were shared by Japan and France, while animation was done in Japan exclusively, like many american cartoons of this time.
Animorphism - The aforementioned dog/prince's "cruel curse".
Blonde, Brunette, Redhead - Lady Lovely Locks, Maiden Fair Hair, and Maiden Curly Crown.
Ermine Cape Effect - by way of Limited Wardrobe.
Everything's Better with Princesses
Hair of Gold
Our Dragons Are Different - For one thing, baby dragons look more like furry pigs. For another, they grow from a magical tree.
Pimped-Out Dress
Pretty in Mink - Fur trimmed coats worn when they go someplace cold.
Princess Classic
Princesses Prefer Pink
Purple Is Powerful - Duchess Ravenwaves
Small Annoying Creature - Both the aforementioned Pixietails and the baby dragons
Verbal Tic: The Pixietails added "ix" to the end of every sentence. (Or was it every word?)
Villain Ball - A bad guy has the princess in his grasp, and spends too much time menacing her rather than getting her hair.
