He looks great with his hair down/loose.


Explanation:
Ambas as traduções são possíveis: loose ou down, mas tenho visto mais down. Creio que aí dependerá do seu gosto pessoal.

Não tinha visto que era ela e não ele. Concordo com a outra tradução proposta, mas gosto mais de: She looks really pretty with her hair down.

agree  jack_speak: Esta resposta tb e' boa, Concordei primeiro con zaicaner pq e' o que eu iria colocar, mas "really nice" e' igualmente legitimo. O problema com "really pretty" e' que parece linguagem de crianca - se for o caso, entao tudo bem.

She looks really well with her hair down


Explanation:
( Pedantic I admit, but I see no reason to divert from 'well', which is not only most literal, but also gramatically correct and commonly used....)
