->''There's beauty, stranger...in thy soft form;\\
Thy fine bright hair, not coarse like the hard athlete's,\\
Is mantling o'er thy cheek warm with desire...\\
Wooing Aphrodite with thy loveliness.''
-->-- '''Pentheus describes Dionysus''', ''Theatre/{{Bacchae}}''
How do you make a PrettyBoy even prettier? Give him long (shoulder-length or longer), flowing tresses of glossy hair. Bonus points for wearing it loose, no matter how impractical this may be.
If he's not the type for just sitting around looking pretty he might also be a BadassLonghair. Villainous versions are likely to also be a WhiteHairBlackHeart.
A lot of these fall under ViewerGenderConfusion, because LongHairIsFeminine (if the confusion occurs in-universe, it's an example of DudeLooksLikeALady). Related to RapunzelHair.

* Griffith from {{Berserk}} has waist-length white waves that the fandom has affectionately dubbed "cloud hair".
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Comics]]
* Not that there's anything "PrettyBoy" about him, since he's a big muscular dude, but TheMightyThor deserves a mention for his long blonde hair. He ain't called Goldilocks for nothin', true believers!
%%* Ditto for [[TheIncredibleHulk Doc Samson.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Film]]
* ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'': Legolas in the film adaptation is a live-action example of this trope.
** Most (if not all) elves are this.
*** And in new pictures, so's AidanTurner as a DWARF. [[http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-CZrNXhvdsCQ/Th9FfiuKZLI/AAAAAAAAJrk/lBtb3pmEMFQ/s400/kili-aidan.jpg&imgrefurl=http://allthingsrarmitage.blogspot.com/2011/07/in-anticipation-of-thorin-friday-will.html&usg=__R68wafwmhZniXxIw8V2WcLxIz5I=&h=224&w=196&sz=50&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=w3RgYpheWh5gVM:&tbnh=104&tbnw=90&ei=8v0mTuntGZCqrAe_rPi-CQ&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dkili%2Baiden%2Bturner%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26rlz%3D1R2TSEE_enGB374%26biw%3D1280%26bih%3D547%26tbm%3Disch&um=1&itbs=1&iact=rc&page=1&ndsp=25&ved=1t:429,r:12,s:0&tx=71&ty=42&biw=1280&bih=547 Seriously]].
*** Actually, the hobbits seem to be the only people in Middle-Earth who ''don't'' go in for this trope. (The orcs and similar tend not to have much hair). The human men have ''shorter'' styles, but it's still fairly long.
%%* ''TheManInTheIronMask'': [[LeonardoDicaprio Philippe/Louis]].
%%* ''[[DonJuanDeMarco Don Juan DeMarco]]'': The eponymous character, played by JohnnyDepp.
%%* Yoshi in ''Film/{{Bunraku}}'' fits this trope to a T. Not surprising, since he's played by {{Gackt}}.
* In ''MadMax 2: The Road Warrior'', the character Golden Boy might count, being the (boy?)friend of Wez and having, by comparison, a rather handsome face and long, flowing, blonde hair.
%%* Warren Peace from ''sky high''
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Literature]]
%%* ''Literature/LostSouls'': Has Zillah and Christian
* Pretty much all of Laurell K. Hamilton has male characters from the ''Literature/AnitaBlake'' and the ''Literature/MerryGentry'' series have ridiculously long hair and are ridiculously good-looking.
%%* Roiben from the ''Tithe'' novels by HollyBlack. Another elf...
* Literature/PrinceRoger [=McClintock=] takes on this partly in rebellion to the rest of his family, who compare him to his traitorous father without him knowing why (no one tells him, out of fear of the wrath of the Empress when the subject of the father comes up). His bodyguards realize, as the series continues, that their dismissal of him as a useless fop due to the appearance was a mistake.
%%* [[TheElricSaga Elric of Melnibone]].
%%* Possibly teenage Mowgli in ''The Second Jungle Book''.
* ''Literature/{{Fablehaven}}'' has Bracken, who is tall, willowy, youthful, and has long, soft silver-white hair.
%%* Vanyel Ashkevron from Mercedes Lackey's ''[[HeraldsOfValdemar Velgarth]]'' universe. Also Firesong.
%%* Pick a male Creator/JRRTolkien's elf. Any male Tolkien's elf. Except Cirdan and Mahtan (who are long-haired, but don't look like pretty boys).
%%* Numair from the ''TortallUniverse''. There is ''definitely'' overlap with BadassLonghair, especially in the second book in which he turns a man into a tree.
* Irrylath of Meredith Ann Pierce’s ''[[Literature/TheDarkangelTrilogy Darkangel Trilogy]]'', as both an (adult) human and as [[spoiler:a darkangel]].
* Plenty of men in ''Literature/ABrothersPrice''. Women keep their hair short and practical; men grow theirs out very long and usually keep it braided. Since men are so rare most women see very few, any man with all of his teeth and both eyes is going to be considered attractive... even so, Jerin is thought of as amazingly handsome.
%%* The titular ''Literature/{{Id}}''.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
* The Groosalugg from ''Series/{{Angel}}'' falls under this trope, until he and Cordelia go on vacation, and he cuts it short... [[http://images.wikia.com/buffy/images/f/f6/AngelGroo.jpg And familiarily...]]
%%* Duncan [=MacLeod=] from ''Series/{{Highlander}}'', until season 6 when the actor got tired of it.
* In ''Series/CriminalMinds'', Reid[[hottip:*: BonusPoints for his in-series nickname being PrettyBoy.]] had longish hair in the earlier seasons but it was shoulder-length in season five. Later on in the season, Reid got a haircut. [[Funny/CriminalMinds Crowning Moment of Funny]] when the team sees Reid's new hair.
-->'''[[TheStoic Hotch]]''': What? Did you join a boy band?
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Music]]
* Anthony Keidis from the Music/RedHotChiliPeppers, although he's recently cut it short.
* Every HairMetal band had to have at least one to be marketable. [[DudeLooksLikeaLady Some bands were entirely composed of them]]. Some examples are:
** Sebastian Bach of SkidRow
** Axl Rose and Steven Adler of Music/GunsNRoses
** Bret Micheals of Poison
** John Bon Jovi of Music/BonJovi until the ImportantHaircut
** Nikki Sixx and Vince Neil of MotleyCrue
* {{Vocaloid}}2: [[http://momo222.unblog.fr/files/2009/04/gakupo124.jpg Kamui Gakupo]], whose voice is sampled from {{Gackt}}. Also, Kaito is sometimes depicted in fanart with a long mullet tied into a ponytail, especially when he's drawn in the same samurai-style as Gakupo.
** Len can also count, seeing as its long enough to put in a short ponytail, and there's plenty of fanart depicting him as a PrettyBoy.
* In the early [[TheSeventies '70s]], Queen were all these. Brian has kept his SeventiesHair forever.
* In TheEighties, there was [[http://hairbangersradio.ning.com/group/nelson Nelson]].
* Another 80s example is Michael Hutchence of INXS. As his hair grew longer over the course of the decade, his [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrZZfaDp02o prettiness]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jujG5X9iZs grew]] as well.
* Music/TheBeatles
** Particularly John when he had shoulder length hair and cleanshaven. As seen in ''LetItBe''.
* Michael Kiske during his time in Music/{{Helloween}}, as seen [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aPaKsUfUEs here]].
* Music/LedZeppelin: [[http://www.popmusicology.com/images/led-zeppelin-in-1968-robert-plant1.jpg All of them.]] That is all.
* Eddie Vedder of Music/PearlJam in the early years. Oh so much.
* Kurt Cobain of Music/{{Nirvana}}, too.
* David Gilmour of Music/PinkFloyd in the earlier stages of their career.
* Music/{{Hanson}} in TheNineties.
* Every post-Aramary SoundHorizon album includes at least one LongHairedPrettyBoy. It makes one wonder if it's all just an elaborate excuse for Revo to wear [[http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/8173/elef.png a]] [[http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/565/marchenr.png bunch]] [[http://img804.imageshack.us/img804/512/shaytanandlayla.png of]] [[http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/161/thanatosu.png silly]] [[http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/5505/hiverlaurant.png wigs]] [[http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/4688/elefried.jpg on]] [[http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/9936/marchetan.jpg stage.]]
* Antonio Pontarelli, a sadly underrated rock violinist and singer.
* Music/PeterGabriel in the early years of Music/{{Genesis}}.
* All the guys of Music/BlackVeilBrides
* [[Music/BurZum Varg Vikernes]] in his late teens.
[[/folder]]

* [[HinduMythology Shiva]] is known for his long hair and his beauty.
* Several gods of GreekMythology, notably Apollo, and also Dionysus (see page quote).
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Theater]]
%%* ''TanzDerVampire'': Herbert
%%* ''Theatre/TheLionInWinter'': King Philippe
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Video Games]]
* ''VideoGame/GoldenSun'': Felix, Piers, and [[BigBad Alex]]. [[spoiler:Alex returns in ''[[VideoGame/GoldenSunDarkDawn Dark Dawn]]'' under a [[PaperThinDisguise Paper Thin Alias]], flowing tresses intact.]]
* The ''FinalFantasy'' series' general [[{{Bishonen}} design philosophy]] for male characters makes this trope present in abundance:
** Even since the beginning--[[VideoGame/FinalFantasyI Red Mage's]] and White Wizard's original sprites were [[LongHairedPrettyBoy long haired pretty boys]] (okay, we can't tell if they're pretty, precisely - or guys, for that matter - but it's ''FinalFantasy'' in the Creator/YoshitakaAmano era. Odds are good that they are).
*** Warrior of Light becomes one in ''{{Dissidia}}'', which was based on Amano's art for the Warrior class.
** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyII'' has TheEmperor and his RapunzelHair. Firion counts as well, [[DependingOnTheArtist when he's given longer hair]].
** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIV'' has the [[{{Bishonen}} ever]]-[[WhiteHairBlackHeart so]]-[[HairDecorations pretty]] [[TheHero Cecil]] (who is [[DependingOnTheArtist sometimes drawn with short hair, but rarely]]). In the sequel, his hair's yet longer...but still not as long as [[TheLancer Kain]], with his long, straight, lovely blond hair.
** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'' has [[TheGambler Setzer]], and ChivalrousPervert Edgar.
** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'': [[OminousLatinChanting Veni, veni, venias! Ne me mori facias!]] Sephiroth! Let's not forget Vincent Valentine, though.
*** Kadaj and Yazoo from ''AdventChildren'' take after Sephiroth.
** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII'' has Irvine. Save a horse, ride a cowboy, ''indeed''. Laguna too, when he was younger.
** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIX'' has Kuja, bishiest of all.
** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyX'' has Seymour Guado (although how pretty he is may be subject to debate).
** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII'' has Larsa and Vayne Solidor, and Al-Cid Margrace.
** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII'' ''nearly'' avoids the trope, but Cid and Rygdea keep the tradition alive.
* ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger'': The boss Flea. The chest padding in the game art doesn't help.
* ''SuperPunchOut'': Kabuki dancing boxer Heike Kagero (long ''purple'' hair, even).
* ''KingdomHearts'': Xehanort, Xemnas, "Ansem", Saix, Marluxia, Riku (until he cut it off in 3D), Vexen... Yeah, ''KingdomHearts'' is the master of Long Haired [[{{Bishonen}} hotties]].
* ''StreetFighter'': Vega.
** Ken too, especially in the [[VideoGame/StreetFighterAlpha Alpha]] series.
** Alex, also. 'Dat ponytail.
* ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'': Zelos Wilder and [[spoiler:Mithos]] Yggdrasill.
* ''SamuraiShodown'': [[IncurableCoughOfDeath Ukyo Tachibana]].
* ''DynastyWarriors'': Several examples, most notably Zhang He and Zhou Yu.
** There's also Zhao Yun, Zhuge Liang, Ling Tong and Jiang Wei.
* ''SamuraiWarriors'': we have Ishida Mitsunari, Akechi Mitsuhide and Sasaki Kojiro.
* ''WarriorsOrochi'': Taigong Wang, if he wore it loose that is.
* ''VideoGame/{{Okami}}'': [[spoiler:Waka]] [[spoiler:How does he keep it under that hat?]]
* ''VideoGame/SengokuBasara'': Akechi Mitsuhide and Maeda Keiji. Sanada Yukimura is of the rat-tail variety, but qualifies when he lets it down.
* ''InfiniteSpace'': A few male characters (including the main character), most notably Lord Roth, who has waist-length hair.
* ''[[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedII Assassin's Creed II]]'': Ezio. His hair is usually in a ponytail, but does reach his shoulders. And ''damn'', is he a [[EvenTheGuysWantHim pretty boy]].
* ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'': Kafei.
* ''WorldOfWarcraft'': Lots, most notably Arthas Menethil and Kael'thas Sunstrider.
* ''VideoGame/TalesOfVesperia'': [[BadassLonghair Yuri Lowell]], plus Duke.
* ''StarOcean'': Ioshua Jerand from the first game, and Dias Flac from ''The Second Story''/''Second Evolution''. Meanwhile, Albel Nox from ''Till the End of Time'' has twin rattails that reach past his waist.
* ''[[DotHackGUGames .hack//G.U.]]'' games: Endrance, crossing into DudeLooksLikeALady territory. Also, Kuhn.
* ''VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss'': Luke, before [[ImportantHaircut his haircut]], [[spoiler:[[CloningBlues his original]]]] Asch, and Jade. Also Van and Peony.
* ''HarvestMoon'' has been fond of this lately. Julius and Jin come to mind.
* ''KingOfFighters'': Duo Lon.
** Benimaru Nikaido has the long hair and the good looks, but his ShockAndAwe powers make his hair *literally* stand up. He lets his hair down once or twice, though.
* ''FatalFury'': Terry and Andy Bogard, very much so. Andy is more notorious since he lets his long hair loose while Terry ties it up in a ponytail instead.
* ''MortalKombat'': Raiden doesn't initially come off as this, but take away his hat and cloak, and you're left with a rather [[http://mortalkombat.wikia.com/wiki/File:Raiden_Traje_alter.jpg pretty man with a glorious mane of white hair]].
** Partially lampshaded in ''VideoGame/MortalKombat9'' where, upon learning they are fighting for the safety of Earth, Johnny Cage asks Raiden, "What should we do, besides standing around looking pretty?"
* The ''VideoGame/FireEmblem'' series has had plenty of these, dating as far back as Navarre from the very first game. Perhaps the most famous examples are [[DudeLooksLikeALady Lucius]] from ''[[FireEmblemElibe Blazing Sword]]'' and Soren from ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemTellius Path of Radiance]]''.
* ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'' has quite a few, with Testament standing out in particular.
* ''SoulSeries'': Siegfried Schtauffen. He used to have short hair in ''Soul Blade'', but it's grown out a lot in later games.
* ''VideoGame/BrainDead13'': Computer technician and [[RedHeadedHero Red-Headed]] IdiotHero Lance Galahad, oh so much.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Webcomics]]
* ''Webcomic/{{Annyseed}}'' The sinister Mr Coldsteem.
* ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'': [[http://www.egscomics.com/sketchbook/?date=2006-01-29 Noah.]]
* ''{{Monsterful}}'': Jacob Bottom Button, the Rag doll boy.
* ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'': Maxim, who was originally meant to be nothing more than a joke sketch of a PrettyBoy [[FrankensteinsMonster Jagermonster]].
