At the end of the movie, Anakin is a padawan but he's clearly the same age as before and the whole scene plays out very shortly after the final battle. And yet Anakin sports the signature padawan braid and it's quite long, much longer in fact than his hair should have been able to grow in the timespan.

So it begs the question: Where does the hair come from? Does becoming a padawan magically reinforce your hair growth capabilities? If yes, why are Qui Gon balding and Sam Jackson bald? Or did the Jedi just glue extensions to his head? Is this not even his own hair? Did they order it in India or from the Philippines like black people do?
