Moved a bunch of examples that amounted to \\\"[Character] has decent hygiene by modern standards.\\\" over here. The page was getting swamped in them.

Comics:

* \\\"Ordeal\\\", an issue of \\\'\\\'{{Hellblazer}}\\\'\\\', showed Eve (as in \\\"Adam and...\\\") having clean-shaven legs at the dawn of time. (Then again, seeing as how she literally began her life as an adult, this could have been {{Hand Wave}}d as [[AuthorAppeal God\\\'s doing]].)
** Possibly leg hair, like [[ScreamingBirth painful childbirth]], is another punishment for the original sin.

Film:

* Notice how everyone in \\\'\\\'RobinHood: Prince of Thieves\\\'\\\' was well-scrubbed and had shampooed hair? Mmm-hmm.
* In \\\'\\\'PiratesOfTheCaribbean: At World\\\'s End\\\'\\\', KeiraKnightley\\\'s legs are perfectly smooth.
* In \\\'\\\'{{Braveheart}}\\\'\\\', William\\\'s wife has perfect hair.

TV:

* In medieval England, lice and other horrible parasites were common to the point of being inescapable. Despite this, the sexy, smooth-legged Maid Marian in TheBBC\\\'s recent \\\'\\\'Series/RobinHood\\\'\\\' series looks like she\\\'s just walked out of a shampoo commercial. As do Arthur and Morgana in \\\'\\\'{{Merlin}}\\\'\\\'.
** [[AWizardDidIt They\\\'re wizards, what did you expect?]]
* \\\'\\\'LittleHouseOnThePrairie\\\'\\\' was infamous for its 1970s male hairstyles in the 1870s/1880s, especially Michael Landon\\\'s perm. The real Pa had a thick beard, yet Landon is smartly clean-shaven.
