It can be played for comedy or drama, depending on the situation. Hair pulling is almost obligatory in a CatFight, but may be less common in a DesignatedGirlFight as {{Action Girl}}s tend to rise above such cheap tactics. If it's happening to a mean girl, then it might cause a HairstyleMalfunction if she's [[FakeHairDrama wearing extensions.]] [[NobodyTouchesTheHair Vain characters]] will react strongly to having delicate or elaborate hairstyle ruined in this way. If the girl happens to be badass, then expect her to sometimes overcome this problem by cutting the hair off at the point where it's being held. See also LifeOrLimbDecision and GivingThemTheStrip. Truly dark examples can combine this trope with others like SlashedThroat and OffWithHisHead where the vulnerable head and neck becomes easier to exploit when it is restricted in this fashion -- the grip also lends itself perfectly to making a DecapitationPresentation. This trope can fail as an attack if attempted on someone whose long hair is actually [[DodgyToupee a removable wig or toupee]], although emotional effects like distress or [[BerserkButton rage]] might be inflicted if the said target was seriously attempting to maintain a facade of having a good head of hair and end up being exposed by this trope.
