The only magic powers she has, that we know of, is her hair and her tears. We cannot infer from the movie that her hair is super strong. In fact human hair is already very strong. It's so strong, that given long enough locks from the average human head, which contains about 100,000 stands, it can hold the weight of two elephants, so holding one human is nothing in comparison. We also cannot infer that she had super human strength just because she's lifting people with her hair up the tower. She's using her hair like a pulley system, which makes lifting weights require much less force.
