The scale on Padme looks good to me. Is it on one of the smaller bodies?

It is also one of the shorter bodies out there, so it should be close to the correct height for Padme. I'm using it for at least one of my Padme figures. It also comes in small or medium bust version which is more appropriate for her. I haven't been able to take a photo of my Padme figure with this body yet, since it's not finished, but here's a link to some:

What advice do you need about the hair? For materials I usually go with tibetan lamb's hair, it is great for the scale. You can purchase it on Etsy or ebay, and there are also some craft supply shops online that sell it. I just glue directly to the scalp, but the scalp probably needs to be prepped a bit first (sanded? painted?).... and you need to find a suitable glue that will stick to resin.
Here's a tutorial for adding lamb's hair to a bald doll head:
