The mirror always functions to refelct people's mind, thought or subconsciousness in the films. Precious sees herself as a blonde in the mirror which shows her eargerness of being a White woman. Precious is lack of confidence when she has oppressed too long by the environment she grows. Precious pursues a common (or even philistine)value of beauty in her contemporary that only blonde stands as beauty. By viewing herself as a blonde Precious gains herself some confidence. However, the blonde in the mirror is wearing a sad face which refelcts Precios' true mental status.
