History Main / BadAssLongHair

* ''EscapeFromNewYork'''s Snake Plissken.

* ''EscapeFromNewYork''s Snake Plissken.

Often combined with the BadassLongcoat or the BadassCape for extra {{Badass}} points. {{Action Girl}}s and {{Dark Action Girl}}s vary on this a lot - they might have short hair practical for fighting, or they might take this UpToEleven with RapunzelHair. Coupled with WildHair, this is very common among WildChild characters, if only because they've never had anything to cut their hair with, or any reason to do so for that matter.

* In AxisPowersHetalia, ''Germania'' has long, flowing hair (occasionally with a braid or two thrown in). This is the guy who took down the Roman Empire. It doesn't get much more badass than that.

* Duo Maxwell from GundamWing.

** And later would be ''MegaManZx's'' Girouette (Zero's {{expy}}) and Vent (as of ''ZX Advent'').

* Duncan [=MacLeod=] in ''Highlander.'' He always kept his tied back in a ponytail, at least in modern day. During flashbacks he occasionally had short hair, and occasionally wore his long hair flowing loose, depending on the time period.

** Supes pulled off the longhair look very well. The problem was that this meant ''Clark'' had to have long hair too, which just looked silly.

* Superman played with this trope. Right after he came back from his "death", he wore a mullet that he often tied back into a pony tail. He cut it just prior to his marriage to [[SecretKeeper Lois Lane]].

* The entire fucking cast of ElfQuest

* [[EscapeFromNewYork Snake Plissken]].

* [[TheMummyTrilogy Ardeth Bey]].
* Gabriel VanHelsing

* Vincent in PulpFiction.

* Anyone as badass as [[SnowCrash Raven]] has earned the right to wear hair like this.
* Joscelin of KushielsLegacy. In fact, most of the D'Angeline warriors.

* [[{{Lost}} Sawyer]].
** I think you mean Sayid.

* [[MetalGearSolid Solid Snake]]. In ''Metal Gear Solid'', he had short hair, but grew a mullet for subsequent games in the series. His brother, Liquid also had long hair, (and was MadeOfIron), as did Vamp and Revolver Ocelot.
** The briefing files on the MGS disc show that Solid Snake wore his hair long immediately before the events of the game, too; he only cut it to distinguish himself from his twin.
* In ''TalesofTheAbyss'' had Jade, Asch and Van. Subverted with Luke.

* Nephi from BlackSigil, already a BadassLongcoat, has long flowing green locks.

* Maxim of GirlGenius.

* Basically 90% of HeavyMetal bands, especially during TheEighties, and [[strike 99% of]] ''all'' Hair Metal bands.
