* ''ComicBook/CuoriGrassi'': Rocco's appearance during The90s was that of an apparently bald teenager with three blond {{Idiot Hair}}s protruding from his head. Later issues portray him as having normal blond hair, so it's kinda implied he's always had it like that and his baldness was merely a stylistic choice.

* Charlie Brown from ''{{ComicStrip/Peanuts}}'', pictured above. [[WordOfGod According to Charles Schulz]], he's blond, but since his father is the local barber, he maintains Charlie with a perpetual buzz cut.

* Chaozu in ''Manga/DragonBall'' rarely appears without his hat, but he removes it in his first encounter with Krillin to show that he has one (and only one) strand of hair on his scalp. Krillin, a former Buddhist monk who keeps his head shaved until the Buu arc, is infuriated.

* Mochu, a minor character in ''Manga/GakuenAlice''. A few [[FanNickname fans nicknamed]] him "Baldy".
* Somewhat averted in ''Manga/OsomatsuKun'' with Chibita, who’s known to have a clean bald head save for his thick wavy strand on the back of his head.

* ''WesternAnimation/Codename:KidsNextDoor'': Subverted by Numbuh 1 as he ''is'' bald. The show [[RiddleForTheAges never disclosed what happened]] other than saying it was Delightful Children's doing and that Numbuh 5 blames herself for it.

* In ''Comicbook/ArthurKingOfTimeAndSpace'', Arthur's own webcomic ''The Thing of Shapes to Come'' initally portrays him with three strands of hair, as part of its exremely stylised nature. This is probably intended to represent that he has a very high forehead, somewhat resembling a receding hairline even as a teenager. In-universe ArtEvolution eventually fixes this.

** The Simpson kids have hair the same color as their skin. One episode has Lisa being mistaken for a DumbBlonde, and another has Bart's hair reverting to its natural red from lack of sun exposure. In a third episode, they start obsessing over where their head ends and the hair begins, with Lisa hastily drawing a hairline with marker.

*Lily Loud in ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'' only has a tuft of blonde hair on her head for the same reason as Tommy Pickles--she's only a baby. That said, come Season 5 of ''The Loud House'' and she still retains this trait at the age of two.

* Wayne from ''WesternAnimation/TheCrampTwins'' has a few strands of hair on his head, but he's still treated as having normal hair: in "Haircut Horrors" he he needs a haircut, while in "Lice-ence to Kill" he gets lice, and becomes completely bald at the end of the latter.
