Here's what Luna said in her Tumblr post:

"I don’t know…I like them both."

I ws thinking the same thing, but I think we've seen Celestia at night already. Would be cool, though.

I would love it so much if they show more Luna later in season 2, and if some how her appearance could change between day and night.

Maybe she's just changing her appearance on a whim because I mean it's sort of established that that's a thing she can do.

Well, think about this: When we saw Luna for the first (and only) time in season one, she'd just be blasted by the Elements of Harmony, shattering her magical evil exterior.

What was left behind was a frightened, magic-drained version of Luna who was so shaken that she didn't think or care to use the "Traditional" speaking voice and also didn't have the current magical power to appear in the royal, sparkly-maned fashion.

Canonically, that's how I rationalize the changes. In reality, based on the half-and-half hair pictures, I realize that the creators simply changed their mind as to what they wanted her to look like (More like Celestia) before they aired the episode and went back in and fixed her hair.

Personally, I would have loved an in-show explanation for both "transformations" and that it could have been well done. We're Bronies, though, and where the show fails our fandom shall make whole.

I think the reason Luna wasn't using the Canterlot voice was because she only said her two lines to her sister. She only uses the voice when addressing her subjects, which Celly is obviously not.

Celestia was seen at night as recently as Lesson Zero with her usual hair, so I don't think Luna should be any different. The decision to change Luna's mane was likely just a simple retcon, though I'd take Faust's explanation as an official explanation until the show proves otherwise.

In my head, Nightmare Night is the anniversary of Luna's transformation into Nightmare Moon. When NMM was eradicated, Luna retains a small bit of its power, which becomes its strongest on Nightmare Night, manifesting as an energy mane.

My theory is the wavy cosmic hair is just part of the royal regalia, like the pony version of makeup, a fancy hairdo, or a wig. Just instead of putting on the wig/makeup, they use special magic to change their hair into psuedo-cosmic energy. Which would mean it would be possible for us to see Luna with her old hair style (and see Celestia with her pink mane) though such would require very special circumstances, as it's generally bad form for a ruler to appear in public without wearing their regalia.

This is a sensible explanation for why her mane is different, than again she seems to be polymorphic so she can look however she wants, I'm sure.
*hugs her*

New Luna is old Luna but with all her powers at max when she came back from being Nightmare Moon she was severely weekend and couldn’t accesses her celestial mane form like Princess Celess if you remember Celestials mane is pink and she was changed in to a filly I think

Celestia showed up at night in Lesson Zero, so her mane doesn't change.

My theory is that Luna made her mane look more like her sister's, since she wanted to be respected as a Princess and saw that as part of the image ponies would look up to.
