Even if her initial idea was that of isolation, later on she wants to break the curse (as well as Howl's), and thanks to the mysterious help of a scarecrow, she met Howl and started to live in his Moving Castle as his servant, it seemed conforming to Sophie to be able to assume this form to paradoxically show her true colors to the world without being undertaken by the fears or insecurities that used to torment and hinder her actions in life before.
There is nothing wrong with starting over and looking for fresh air. However, it is wrong to try and escape from who we are, from what we have learned, and from the ones who love us. And at first, Sophie uses her curse as a shield. Dealing with our feelings and the view we have on who we are will always be a hard task, even more so when we depreciate ourselves a lot. It is only through accepting who we are and offering ourselves the opportunity to change that we shall be able to get free from this imaginary prison, just like Sophie.

After Sophie is cursed, she retains her same hat and continues wearing her hair in the same fashion. Although her dress remains the same style, it is now pastel blue in color. However, she gains a significant amount of weight, and obtains both a wrinkled appearance and silver hair from age.
When the curse is lifted, Sophie retains the silver hair that she acquired from the curse and it is now styled in a short bob after being cut off during previous events. She returns back to her former, younger self.
Although Sophie is initially reserved and lacking confidence, she demonstrates herself to be a strong-willed individual after she is cursed into becoming an old woman, becoming less afraid of what others think of her. Dutiful, kind, and considerate, Sophie also has a tendency to be impulsive in her actions and often feels guilty when she does something wrong, though her attempts to rectify matters are usually disastrous. She is a very compassionate individual and often tries to help others, no matter who they are, going so far as taking the Witch of the Waste under her protection. It is eventually revealed that Sophie possesses magical abilities of her own - she is capable of talking life into objects, though she initially is unaware of her powers and uses them unwittingly. When developed, they become very powerful.
Sophie's magical talents attract the attention of the Witch of the Waste. Mistaking Sophie for her sister, Lettie Hatter, and believing that Sophie was withholding some information she needed regarding Howl, the Witch of the Waste curses Sophie into becoming an old woman. With a desire to lift the curse, Sophie travels to the moving castle owned by the Wizard Howl, despite the rumors that Howl is renowned for stealing the souls of beautiful girls.
While in the castle, Sophie meets Calcifer, a fire demon, and learns of the contract that keeps him locked inside Howl's Castle. The fire demon promises to break Sophie's curse if she agrees to free him from the contract with Howl. Calcifer often tries to drop hints to Sophie of how to break their contract, but she typically misses the hints, being so nosey with Howl.
Howl tries to avoid falling in love with Sophie because, if he falls in love, then he must return to the Witch of the Waste. However, Howl cannot help but follow his heart, falls in love with Sophie, and activates his curse. One the day the curse is said to come true, the Witch of the Waste informs Sophie that she has kidnapped Miss Angorian, a schoolteacher whom Howl has been courting. Believing that it is Miss Angorian who Howl truly loves, Sophie returns to the Waste and attempts to save her before Howl finds out.
When Sophie gets to the Waste, the Witch reveals that the scheme was all a trick to lure Sophie to the Waste. Proven successful, the Witch of the Waste captures Sophie, prompting Howl to return to the Waste to save her. Howl fights the Witch of the Waste, overcoming his own reluctance to do so out of his love for Sophie. However, the Witch of the Waste's own fire demon, Miss Angorian, attempts to steal Howl's heart as the Witch's heart was too old and weak. Sophie manages to break the contract between Calcifer and Howl, and returns Howl's heart to him. Sophie defeats Miss Angorian, breaking her own curse, and freeing both Wizard Suliman and Prince Justin, who have been merged together by the Witch.
Later that evening, the Witch of the Waste breaks into Sophie's hat shop after hours. Unbeknownst to the Witch's identity, Sophie informs her that the shop is closed for the day. The Witch replies with an insult, stating both Sophie and the hat shop are 'tacky', to which Sophie again asks her to leave. The Witch, jealous of the attention Sophie had received from Howl, curses her to become old.
The morning after being cursed by the Witch of the Waste, Sophie leaves behind her life in search of a cure. On her journey, she meets a mysterious creature that she dubs Turnip-Head, who, unlike in the book, is actually helpful to her. Providing her with a walking stick, Turnip-Head leads Sophie to Howl's Castle.
With Turnip-Head's assistance, Sophie manages to get inside the castle where she meets a fire demon named Calcifer. Together, they agree to break each other's curses. Sophie falls asleep only to be awakened by a knock on the door where she meets Markl, an apprentice of Howl. Markl is a very young boy, opposed to his book counterpart Michael Fisher, who is much older. Sophie cooks them all breakfast, and once again meets Howl. Sophie, in an attempt to tell Howl about her curse, realizes that she is unable to speak about it and decides instead to say she is their new cleaning lady that Calcifer hired.
While they are climbing the steps to the palace, the Witch visibly grows older. When they make it inside, Sophie is led by a dog into a room where Madame Sulliman is. She tells Sophie that Howl has been taken over by a demon, and soon it will completely consume him. The Witch of the Waste loses her powers, and Howl arrives disguised as the King to save Sophie. Before they can get away, Madame Suliman shows Sophie what Howl really is. He transforms into a fierce bird, but before he loses himself, Sophie yells that it's a trap, and he flies Sophie out of the palace, along with the Witch of the Waste, and Sulliman's dog, Heen. Sophie flees the Royal City on a plane that Howl stole. Howl stays behind as a decoy so Sophie can safely get away. Sophie crashes into the castle, and she dreams that Howl is consumed by his demon. She admits that she loves him in her dream, where he roars that it's too late. Howl arrives the next morning, and moves the castle again. The castle transforms into Sophie's hat shop, along with a new portal, that leads to a beautiful field of flowers. Sophie becomes young again, and she asks Howl if he's leaving her. He doesn't answer, to which she responds, "Please, Howl, I know I can be of help to you. Even though I'm not pretty, and all I'm good at is cleaning." Howl responds, "Sophie... Sophie you're beautiful!" At that moment, Sophie grows old again, and an enemy warship approaches the field. Howl destroys the engine, and saves Sophie. Sophie turns the Hat Shop into a flower shop, and her mother visits her. Her mother secretly leaves a little spy blob behind, and the Witch throws it in Calcifer's mouth. He weakens, and is unable to defend the castle when the country is thrust into war. Sophie runs outside, fully young as she has unknowingly broke her own curse, and watches as Howl saves the shop from a falling bomb. He emerges from the wreckage unscathed, and the two embrace. Howl heals Calcifer, and Sophie begs him not to go out into the war again. He responds, "Sorry, I've had enough of running away, Sophie. Now I've got something to protect. It's you." He leaves and Sophie moves Calcifer from his hearth, breaking the connection the castle had to Market Chipping. The castle curmbles, and Sophie places him back in the ruined grate. Despite Sophie's curse being lifted, her hair remains silver, much unlike the book, where Sophie's hair turns red. She gives Calcifer her hair, and he grows strong enough to move the castle to find Howl and tell him that they are safe. Meanwhile, the Witch of the Waste realizes that Calcifer holds Howl's heart, and she plucks him from the hearth. She begins to burn, and Sophie throws a bucket of water on her. Calcifer goes out, causing the castle to fall apart. Sophie falls over a cliff, along with Heen. The ring that Howl gave her glows blue, and leads to the portal from the castle. She opens it up, and enters the black void that only Howl has been in. She ends up in the past, and witnesses Howl as a child. Stars are falling from the sky, and she runs out to stop him from making a pact with Calcifer. However, Howl swallows the star before Sophie can reach him, and Calcifer is born, with Howl's small heart beating within. Sophie calls out to him, telling him to find her in the future. She is then thrust back through the door, where Howl is waiting for her. He is unresponsive, but he brings her to the remains of the castle.
Some people argue that the power of love was what broke the curse however that theory does not explain why Sophie's age changes frequently throughout the movie. One theory is that the curse is heavily affected by Sophie's own confidence and emotions. In the beginning, she sounds like a 90-year-old grandmother as her mother put it and she acts as if she gave up on her own life. But as she finds some purpose cleaning the castle, she becomes slightly younger. When she pointed out Howl's good qualities to Sulliman, she was assertive and forward with her own thoughts. This caused her to go back to her own age. Later when she is introduced to Howl's secret flower field she is full of joy and youth but when doubt began to cloud her mind and she denied herself from being pretty, she went back to being an old woman.
There are other cases where what she did affected her age in the movie. When she slept, however, she was back to her normal self. At the end of the movie, Sophie was ready to be assertive and move forward with her life instead of giving up, which was probably what broke the curse.
