History Main / MemeticHair

* The Harfoots' Unkept WildHair on ''Series/TheLordOfTheRingsTheRingsOfPower'' gained a lot of notoriety for being compared with their trimmed and illustrious descendants.

* Captain Christopher Pike from ''Series/StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds'' has become known for his pompadour, referred to as "Pike's Peak".

* ComicBook/{{SpiderMan}}'s most infamous detractor and the [[DaEditor chief editor]] of the Daily Bugle, ''J. Jonah Jameson (Jr.)''. Has his infamous flattop (with white or gray streaks) and mustache. Expect anyone who rocks that look in ''any'' medium to be referred to as good old J. Jonah as a reference or joke.

** Princess Leia's iconic cinnamon bun hair from ''Film/ANewHope''. Throughout the rest of the series she tends to wear her hair in various different styles of braids, but the twin buns are the style most associated with her.

* ''Franchise/JohnWick's'' shoulder-length dark hair is fairly iconic on its own despite being relatively generic - but much more-so when coupled with the trimmed dark beard that makes his face resemble a [[SkullForAHead skull]].

* Shepherd Book’s hair on ''{{Series/Firefly}}'' is a variation in that it’s not the style that became a meme, but a scene with the hair. Specifically when he had it loose rather than up in a ponytail and River was afraid of it. Fans love meme’ing the scene.

* ''Videogame/TheNewOrderLastDaysOfEurope:'' Coming from the Reich's holdings in South Africa, showing this trope can be applied to bad haircuts too, comes [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tno_huttig.png Hans Huttig]], whose wavy, overly-parted and positively gross-looking hair is yet another atrocity on his list to the players. And it's based on a real picture, too; [[https://i.redd.it/vx26ys3cvfv51.jpg it's even uglier in HD]].

** And of course there's Goku's omnidirectional spikes along with his Super Saiyan 1 hair and Vegeta's VillainousWidowsPeak.

** The manga/''Brotherhood'' version of Solf J. Kimblee is often compared to cockroach because of his HairAntennae (and him being sleazy and unnerving.) Meanwhile his 2003 anime counterpart has a mullet ponytail instead, so he's often called Mullet Kimblee.

** The series has some of the most extreme cases of AnimeHair the world has ever seen. In the abridged series particularly amazing hair grants the owners special powers.

** As well as Seto Kaiba's original hair in the 1998 anime: "[[WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries Screw the rules,]] I have green hair!"

* ComicBook/{{SpiderMan}}'s most infamous detractor and the chief editor of the Daily Bugle, ''J. Jonah Jameson (Jr.)''. Has his infamous flattop (with white or gray streaks) and mustache. Expect anyone who rocks that look in ''any'' medium to be referred to as good old J. Jonah as a reference or joke.

* The TV ads for L'Oréal's brands of shampoos with beautiful women waving their long hair are so ingrained in popular culture that memes have been made with any human (or non-human) having long hair, such as Creator/ChrisHemsworth ([[https://i.pinimg.com/originals/04/dd/ba/04ddbaefd61466241b84130f7a7ec232.jpg here]]) or even ''[[Franchise/StarWars Chewbacca]]'' ([[https://www.memesmonkey.com/images/memesmonkey/e5/e57d5a8aa7a0ea330835e49d29a7cc21.jpeg here]]).

** Zelda's short-cut hair in the upcoming sequel to ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild'' quickly caught on to memetic levels once it was first shown off.
