Someone even made a video where the Pyro reveals themselves to be Half Life 3.
** Soldier looks kind of weird without his helmet. This is probably due to his sloping forehead and [[LanternJawOfJustice enormous chin]], which gives him a vaguely simian or Neanderthal appearance.
* Early in ''VideoGame/{{XCOM 2}}'s'' campaign, we get a good look at why the ADVENT soldiers and officers wear big, face-concealing helmets. It turns out that they only vaguely look human underneath their helmets, with enlarged eyes, catlike noses, and tiny ears, which would naturally undermine ADVENT's attempt to present their soldiers as human-like peacekeepers.
* Razputin, the hero of ''VideoGame/{{Psychonauts}}'', wears an aviator's cap and goggles throughout the entire game, until the denouement, where he is made an official Psychonaut. He gains a sweater and loses the aviator cap - and the hair revealed by this fashion change looks like it's in desperate need of combing.
** Dogen Boole wears a special tinfoil hat to prevent him from accidentally exploding people's heads. "Please keep your hat on" indeed.
* The Engineer in ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' is bald underneath his helmet.

* A bit of a RunningGag for Rick O'Shay in ''Webcomic/BobAndGeorge'', along with his chronic ScheduleSlip. It's been proposed that he has, among other things, a demonic soul-stealing abomination, a bad case of helmet hair, or shiny pink {{Bishonen}} hair. [[FunSize Mini-Rick]] appears to keep several Met helmets under his Met helmet in a sort of infinite loop of Met helmets--he's seen pulling one off yet having another one under it...yet is also able to manifest the aforementioned shiny pink hair by taking off his helmet. RuleOfFunny is to blame, most likely. Amusingly enough, it's the pink Bishonen hair that's freaked out the most people in the comics.

* ''WesternAnimation/Ben10Omniverse'' has an in-universe example in the form of Toepick, an alien form who's constantly wearing a caged helmet. Once the gates of the cage slide open, Toepick's true face is revealed. We never actually see it, but it's apparently so horrifyingly ugly, every villain who has looked at it so far turned into screaming, shivering wrecks.
