Being already very pretty in and out-of-universe helps greatly too.

* In ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'', flashbacks of the titular character's dad Greg in his youth showed [[IWasQuiteALooker he was a rather attractive rock "star"]] and that his pompadour-like hair went past his knees like it does in the present, although he now has a bald spot.

** As an adult in an alternate future, Robin is shown to have long hair. This is different from in the comics, where ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} has had long hair but it was a mullet instead of standard long hair. Robin is a ChickMagnet as a teenager so it's certain he'd be one as an adult as well.

[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
%%* ''Manga/ZeroSevenGhost'': Hakuren Oak.
%%* ''100% Perfect Girl'': Jarte's secretary Benjamin.
* Anri and Shiro of ''Manga/{{Adekan}}'' used to have much longer hair when they were younger and were mistaken as girls because of their hair, feminine facial features and lithe forms typically dressed in female clothing. Shiro has since cut his hair to be free of a guy who held him captive as a slave due to his beauty and it remains past shoulder length. Anri once gained his long curly hair back after he degenerated to his child form.
%%* ''Manga/AhMyGoddess'' (movie version): Celestine.
* ''Manga/{{Amatsuki}}'':
** Being set in the Edo Period, all men have long hair, but the longest belongs to Ginshu, who wears it loose and is pretty enough to have masqueraded as a woman for years.
** Bonten, a suave, vain demon who WordOfGod calls the best looking guy in the series, is unique for his long blond hair which he ties in a ponytail, but sometimes lets down for alluring effect.
%%* ''Manga/AngelCrush'' : Michael Finch AKA Michael the Archangel has long flowing golden blond locks of hair that [[BishieSparkle sparkle.]] All the time. Even at night.
%%* ''Manga/AngelSanctuary'': Rosiel.
* In ''Manga/{{Aruosumente}}'', Moeran stands out even among a CastFullOfPrettyBoys thanks to his long hair and loose robes.
* Nagisa from ''Manga/AssassinationClassroom'' has long hair tied into pigtails, which makes him look like a girl. [[spoiler:Turns out his mother won't allow him to cut his hair, because his mother, who wanted a daughter instead of a son, wants him to look like a girl.]]
* By the time Eren is 16 in ''Manga/AttackOnTitan'' he has grown his hair out in contrast to his short hairstyle he had when younger. This, coupled with his handsome looks, makes him a definite long haired pretty boy.
* A non-human example comes from Long-haired Bananya in ''Anime/{{Bananya}}'', as seen [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/bananya/images/d/d5/Long_haired_bananya.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20180411150146 here]].
* ''Manga/{{Beelzebub}}'': When Himekawa loses the pompadour and sunglasses, his hair is revealed to be very long and beautiful, and he's so handsome his classmates are left speechless. From then on whenever he appears in this state he's nicknamed "Sexykawa".
* Griffith, the resident {{Bishonen}} from ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'' who hordes of male and female characters have a fallen for and obsessed over during the course of the series, has waist-length white waves that the fandom has affectionately dubbed "cloud hair".
%%* ''Manga/BetrayalKnowsMyName'': Takashiro Giou, Kanata "Reiga Giou" Wakamiya, and Isuzu Fujiwara. Also [[spoiler:Luze, Luka's younger twin brother.]]
%%* ''Manga/BladeOfTheImmortal'': Anotsu (practically the token bishonen in this manga).
%%* ''Manga/BlackButler'': Aleister "Viscount Druitt" Chamber, Prince Soma, and the Undertaker.[[note]] Grell Sutcliff doesn't actually count because WordOfGod has "confirmed" her to be a trans woman.[[/note]]
%%** Chapter 67 gives us Edgar Redmond.
* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'':
** Byakuya has long black hair that falls just past his shoulders. As a stoic nobleman with raven black hair and pale skin, he tends to be very popular with the women. The Shinigami Women's Institute keeps voting him the sexiest male shinigami in their annual polls.
** Ukitake has waist length white hair and is considered gentle, kind, and attractive. His HeterosexualLifePartner, Kyoraku, keeps referring to him as a ladykiller because female shinigami can be reduced to blushing jelly if he so much as smiles at them. His female third seat, Kiyone, is hopelessly in love with him.
** Yumichika, notorious for his beauty and his obsession with beauty, used to have long hair that was fashionably styled until he joined the shinigami, whereupon he cut his hair to chin-length.
** Jugram Haschwalth of the Wandereich is a long haired, slender and pretty Bishonen. He's also TheDragon to BigBad Yhwach.
* ''Manga/BokuraNoHentai'':
** Ryousuke wears his hair long and has [[DudeLooksLikeALady androgynous]] qualities. When he was younger he was noted for looking like a short haired version of [[StrongFamilyResemblance his sister]]. When she died he grew his hair out and began [[MySiblingWillLiveThroughMe dressing as her]] in private for his mother, who [[TheUnfavorite preferred her]] and has [[SanitySlippage mental health issues]] due to her death. [[spoiler:Ryousuke [[ExpositoryHairstyleChange cuts his hair]] when he enters high school due to no longer needing to crossdress.]]
** Satoshi is introduced as a boy with long hair who usually [[WholesomeCrossdresser wears girls clothes]]. A few appearances later and he cut his hair short and ditched the sailor fuku because he was hitting a growth spurt. In later chapters he grows his hair out long which makes him stand out as the most {{bishonen}} male character. He often wears his hair in a ponytail.
* ''Manga/CardcaptorSakura'': Yue's braid of silver hair trails 2 feet behind him on the floor (or more, if it's a CLAMP illustration). Makes sense since he represents Yin and, through that, the Feminine aspect.
%%* Several characters by Creator/{{CLAMP}}, especially in their shoujo series:
%%** ''Manga/MagicKnightRayearth'': Zagato.
%%** ''Manga/RGVeda'': Yasha.
%%** ''Manga/{{X 1999}}'': Kakyou Kuzuki.
%%** ''Manga/CardcaptorSakura'': Yue and Clow.
* ''Manga/Classi9'' has two of them: There is Beethoven, who's long violet hair and delicate features had him [[DudeLooksLikeALady mistaken for a girl]] InUniverse. There's also Liszt, who despite thinking he isn't that good looking, has numerous fangirls for his looks and musical talent. As for the long-haired part, his hair goes below his knees.
* ''Manga/{{Claudine}}'': Claude and Louis are both stunningly pretty men with long blond hair.
%%* ''Anime/CodeGeass'': Xingke and Clovis. There's also V.V., though he's more of a cute boy than a {{Bishounen}}.
* ''Literature/{{Corsair}}'': The brothers Jean-Hughes D'Aubigne and Canale Delacroix both have long hair and aristocratic good looks, with Canale in particular being seen as extraordinarily beautiful.
%%* ''Manga/CrimsonSpell'': Havi.
* Akoya of ''Anime/CuteHighEarthDefenseClubLove'' whose long pink hair is his defining physical trait.
* Jin Kazama from ''Manga/{{DAYS}}'' has long, blond hair that stands out amongst most the cast (who mostly have black or brown hair). He's the most {{bishonen}} character and is a ChickMagnet. Kazama's hair gets commented on when people on another team say they expect him to get beat up for his looks.
* ''Manga/DeathNote'': Mikami is a SharpDressedMan with shoulder-length hair and some would argue he's even more {{Bishonen}} than Light and (although he wasn't intended to be one) L. At least until the Yellow Box scene in the GrandFinale.
%%* ''Manga/DescendantsOfDarkness'': Dr Watari, Sohryuu and Nagare (Hisoka's father).
%%* ''Manga/DestinyOfTheShrineMaiden'': Tsubasa.
* Yukki of ''Manga/DestroyAndRevolution'' has long hair to spite his father.
%%* ''Manga/DGrayMan'': Yu Kanda, Jasdevi and maybe General Cross (he's not really a ''boy'').
%%** And Tyki Mikk. (Chapter 196)
* Kouji Minamoto of ''Anime/DigimonFrontier'' technically falls under this trope since his hair is long enough to be worn in a near-waist-length ponytail. Amusingly his [[spoiler:long-lost twin]] brother Kouichi is a ''Short''-Haired Pretty Boy due to having similar features but an overall more feminine appearance.
* Hakuoh from ''Anime/DuelMasters'' has very long blue hair, and he's a very pretty boy.
* In ''Anime/{{Endride}}'', the very pretty Eljuia has flowing white long hair which unquestionably contributes to the DudeLooksLikeALady effect that occurs in-universe. He stands out as most men in the series keep their hair shoulder length or higher.
* ''Anime/{{Daimos}}'': Richter, the [[AlienPrincess Alien]] [[EvilPrince Prince]] of the Baam-Seijin, has hair that goes past his chest and nearly reaches the floor. [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/richter_from_daimos.png See here]].
* ''Manga/ExcelSaga'': Il Palazzo has long silver hair and is rather pretty for an older man.
%%* ''Manga/FinderSeries'': Feilong.
* ''Anime/FullmetalAlchemist2003'': Envy's true form is an attractive smooth-skinned male with shoulder-length blonde hair and golden eyes, whilst having a bitter smile across his face.
* ''Manga/HonooNoAlpenRose'':
** [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/leon_01.png Leonhardt Aschenbach]] has long, cymotrichous, purple hair that reaches past his back, long eyelashes and a feminine face. He's so pretty that he can pass as a woman, [[spoiler: and he does so that his fans don't recognize him in public as "the secondcoming of Mozart".]]
** Count Georges crosses this over with FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon, being a pedophile Nazi with long, thin, straight hair that volominously covers his back and a refined face with striking eyes.
* ''Manga/FruitsBasket'':
** Ayame Sohma has very long silver hair and is famous for his beauty, not to mention he's incredibly camp.
** Ritsu Sohma has long brown hair and is pretty enough that he can wear a kimono and pass for a woman. His timid demeanor also helps.
%%* ''Manga/FushigiYuugi'' has Hotohori, Nuriko, Tomo (without the makeup), Tatara, Tenkou, and Renhou's demon form. Its prequel series ''Manga/FushigiYuugiGenbuKaiden'' adds Uruki, Hikitsu, and Hagus to that list.
* ''Manga/GetBackers'': Kazuki has floor length brown hair and is so pretty he's been mistaken as female a number of times.
* ''Manga/GingaTeikokuKouboushi'': ''Volume 1: Foundation'': Anselm haut Rodric is drawn as the tallest character during the "Literature/TheMayors" storyline, with long pale hair that goes down to his shoulder-blades. Narrow eyes and a smirk indicate his arrogant personality before he even says word one.
* ''Manga/{{Gintama}}'':
** Katsura has long black hair that enhances his feminine good looks.
** Kamui wears his long orange hair in a braid. He also happens to look just like his cute sister.
* ''Anime/GuiltyCrown'': Gai Tsutsugami is tall, has a well built physique, has long blonde hair that goes passed his shoulders and has attracted a number of female characters.
* Miyamura from ''Manga/{{Horimiya}}'' had long hair to hide his piercings while at school. He ended up cutting it after him dating Hori was made public knowledge, and it was considered an UnnecessaryMakeover by both the fanbase and Hori. [[spoiler:She leaves a bite mark on the back of his neck the first time they have sex to encourage him to grow it back out.]]
* ''Manga/HoshinEngi'':
** Yozen has the appearance of an elegant young man with long blue hair, and his good looks occasionally get noticed.
** Kouyuuken of the [[EliteFour shisei of Kuryuu islands]] is a lean man with hair long enough to reach his feet and is drawn with the long eyelashes the mangaka usually use for pretty female characters.
%%* ''Manga/ImmortalRain'': Rain.
* ''VideoGame/InazumaEleven'': Terumi "Aphrodi" Afuro is named after the goddess of beauty, so naturally he is drawn with blonde hair that goes down to his hips and a very feminine appearance.
* Guy of ''Manga/InnocentsShounenJuujigun'' has upper back length, immensely floofy black hair. While he's not the [[CastFullOfPrettyBoys prettiest member of the cast,]] he's certainly an attractive young man.
* ''Manga/{{Inuyasha}}'':
** Inuyasha has long white hair reminiscent of the lion-dog figure in kabuki plays. For all his abrasive personality, he's considered rather cute, and the dog ears half hidden in his hair tend to be irresistible for women to try and touch. Even Kagome's ''mother'' gave in to the urge. He's particularly popular with Jakotsu… much to his chagrin.
** Sesshoumaru is a tall, slim, beautiful youkai of very high aristocratic rank with long, flowing white hair that falls to his waist. The anime takes this to extremes, however, by lengthening his hair down to his ''knees''. Kagura, who had commented upon first seeing Inuyasha and Kouga that they weren't her type, fell for Sesshoumaru the moment she laid eyes on him. Jakotsu thought he was very attractive as well, but by then had his heart set on Inuyasha. The anime also gave him his very own StalkerWithACrush who fell for him the moment she saw him.
** Naraku took over the body of a handsome young human lord to create the shell of the half-youkai that he became. As a result, he has long black hair styled as a young lord would wear it. Unusually in the series, his hair is actually wavy rather than dead straight.
* Narciso Anasui from ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure: Stone Ocean''. Upon meeting him, F.F. even [[DudeLooksLikeALady questions his gender.]] To be fair, [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness he was initially depicted as a woman]] before switching to male, leading to {{Fanon}} that he is UsefulNotes/{{Transgender}}.
** Three of the series' main villains are also these.
*** [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureBattleTendency Kars]] is [[AgentPeacock this]] compared to [[MachoCamp the other Pillar Men]], with BarbarianLonghair, finer features, and eye makeup.
*** [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureGoldenWind Diavolo]] is [[ArtEvolution much slimmer]] than most of his predecessors, and has long magenta hair.
*** [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureSteelBallRun Funny Valentine]] was initially depicted as [[FormerlyFat an overweight man]] but after obtaining the rib cage of the saint, he transforms into a slim looking gentleman with long blonde hair that curls into rings at the neck.
** [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureSteelBallRun Gyro Zeppeli]], even with his strange segmented beard.
* ''Anime/{{K}}'':
** Kuroh, with his SamuraiPonytail. In the first episode, when he rescues Shiro, the latter blushes at Kuroh's beauty and tries to flirt with him quite a bit, even when Kuroh is trying to kill him. When Kuroh goes to Shiro's school to find him, passing groups of students notice how hot he is, even though he seems a little strange.
** [[spoiler:Shiro in his original body]] also qualifies - even after [[spoiler:he cuts his hair in the end, it's still shoulder-length]], and the students in the school are shown in a post-series side story to be very into both him and Kuroh for their looks.
%%* Tomoe from ''Manga/KamisamaKiss'' normally has a short pageboy hair cut but we see in flashbacks he used to wear his hair long and twice in the story he reverts to a longer hair style.
* Kaoru from ''Manga/KidsOnTheSlope'' is stated to have [[{{bishonen}} effeminate]] facial features once and certainly looks prettier than the other more 'average' looking boys. As an adult he is shown to have grown his hair out and become a [[HospitalHottie doctor]].
%%* ''Literature/KyoKaraMaoh'': Gunter and Saralegui.
%%* ''Manga/{{Loveless}}'': Soubi, Nisei, and the male Zeroes.
* ''Anime/MacrossFrontier'': Alto Saotome a.k.a. [[InSeriesNickname Hime-sama]] is a beautiful boy with long blue hair tied in a ponytail. Often leads to him getting mistaken for a girl, much to his displeasure.
* Aburatsubo from ''Anime/MagicUsersClub''. He's tall, has long red hair, and is gorgeous enough to have his fanclub.
* Tsubasa Otori of ''Anime/MetalFightBeyblade'' takes this trope and [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tsubasa_41.jpg then inserts]] a healthy dosage of [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tsubasaotori.jpg bishie sparkling]]. If it weren't for his muscles, he could almost certainly be mistaken for a girl. There are even jokes referring to Tsubasa as being a style stealer, specifically of Inuyasha's hair.
* ''Anime/{{Mononoke}}'': Kusuriuri is known for capturing the hearts of all the women he meets just by standing still and letting the DramaticWind blow through his long, wavy ash blond hair.
* ''Manga/MoriartyThePatriot'': During the time-skip after ''The Final Problem'', Sherlock grew his already-past-the-shoulder hair close to halfway down his back, a key member of the CastFullOfPrettyBoys.
* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'':
** Haku's long hair is the main factor in his [[DudeLooksLikeALady androgyny]]. He had long hair even as a child. According to Naruto in Chapter 21, he thought that Haku was even girlier than Sakura.
** Neji, Dan, Deidara, Itachi, and Kabuto all have hair that goes past their shoulders, and are all [[{{Bishonen}} quite pretty]].
** Inoichi Yamanaka is an older example.
** Sasuke in Curse Seal Level 2 form.
** Shikamaru when we get to see his hair down while bathing.
%%* ''Anime/NightRaid1931'': Natsume.
* ''Anime/NightWalker'': The protagonist Shido and his foe/stalker Cain both have chin-length hair in the first set of character designs, and Cain isn't even a pretty boy. But both are firmly within the scope of this trope in the second set of character designs. Shido's new 'do is waist length at least, and Cain has new blond ''tresses'', to say nothing of his new ([[HoYay seme-appropriate]]) face.
* Ryuunosuke of ''Literature/ThePetGirlOfSakurasou'', being a genius {{hikikomori}}, barely has time cutting his hair, which has now grown to feminine lengths. He's also so pretty that he's once forced to wear a maid outfit.
* ''Anime/PokemonTheSeriesDiamondAndPearl'': Nando has long, glossy hair that fits well with his minstrel garb and [[HarpOfFemininity harp]], and he is one of the rare [[ThatOneGuy male]] Pokémon Coordinators in the series, with his main Pokémon parter being the feminine Roserade.
%%* ''Anime/PrettyCure'':
%%** Mucardia of ''Anime/YesPrettyCure5GoGo''
%%** Souler of ''Anime/FreshPrettyCure''
%%** Cobraja of ''Anime/HeartCatchPrettyCure''
%%** Baritone of ''Anime/SuitePrettyCure''
%%** Wolfrun of ''Anime/SmilePrecure''.
* ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'': Mousse' hair is longer than Shampoo's and he is quite pretty without his glasses.
%%* ''Manga/Reborn2004'': Future!Mukuro, Squalo, Kikyo, Nosaru, Daemon Spade, and Basil.
%%* ''Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena'': Touga, Akio, and Saionji.
* ''Manga/RurouniKenshin'': Kenshin, referred to in the first chapter as "Handsome Swordsman of Legend", has long red hair. His impossibly youthful looks are lampshaded when two of the cast are surprised to learn he's actually 28.
* ''Manga/SailorMoon'': Fisheye, Zoisite, Nephrite and Kunzite all have long hair. The first two were portrayed as female in the dub. Also, Ali (his alien form) in the anime only Doom Tree arc. And Fiore (his alien form) in the R movie. And Artemis (his human form) in the manga.
* ''AudioPlay/SaintBeast'': Quite a few: Shin, Luca, and Lucifer all have long hair, and being angels, angelic beauty to accompany it. Rey is by far the worst offender with his long, flowing purple hair, and features bordering on DudeLooksLikeALady.
%%* ''Manga/SaintSeiya'': Shiryu, Shun and Hyoga (and countless secondary characters, most notably Shaka and Mu).
* ''Manga/SakuraGari'': Souma has long hair that he wears in a ponytail (before his ImportantHaircut) and Youya [[spoiler:aka Sakurako.]]
* ''Manga/TheSecretAgreement'': Iori has long locks and is commented on for his [[SlidingScaleOfBeauty world-class beauty]], even more so than his short-haired sister.
* ''Manga/SeraphOfTheEnd''
** Ferid and Crowley are both [[{{Bishonen}} effeminate looking]] vampires with Ferid keeping his long silver hair in a ponytail and Crowley keeping his long red hair in a braid.
** Asuramaru is a demon with a feminine looking face and long dark hair. The dress doesn't help either.
* ''Literature/{{Shimoneta}}'': Oboro takes the [[DudeLooksLikeALady "pretty"]] boy aspect to extremes, due to his soft facial features, the length of his hair, and the fact that he has ''[[HeadTurningBeauty a woman's]]'' figure. This is further emphasized during episode 12, by having him strip down in the women's changing room while a girl was present without her realizing Oboro was a guy.
* ''Manga/ShugoChara'': Nagihiko Fujisaki has long, flowing indigo hair. Justified [[UnsettlingGenderReveal because he's a crossdresser]].
%%* ''Manga/SorcererHunters'': Marron Glace.
* ''Anime/StarDriver'': Shingo generally has some of the longest hair among the male cast, but after about sixteen years of coma it has grown to very long dimensions and he has soft facial features to match.
* ''Manga/{{Tsukigasa}}'': Azuma has very long, beautiful hair and a delicate appearance such that he resembles his mother strongly.
%%* ''Anime/TheVisionOfEscaflowne'': Allen Schezar.
* Kiri from ''Manga/WildRose'' and Olgrius and Shui from ''Manga/WildWind'', all have long hair that is [[AuthorAppeal drawn in great detail]], and beautiful appearances courtesy of their supernatural being status.
* [[AsianFoxSpirit Kyubi]] from ''Anime/YokaiWatch'' is portrayed as a long-haired, somewhat androgynous-looking boy in human form. He's a ChickMagnet who (literally) steals hearts. Despite this, Katie is oblivious to his flirting. His human counterpart in the [[HighSchoolAU Middle School AU]] SpinOff of the series, ''Anime/YokaiWatchJamTheMovieYokaiAcademyYCanACatBeAHero'' and ''Anime/YokaiWatchJamYokaiAcademyYCloseEncountersOfTheNKind'', Ryuusuke Kyuubi, has even longer hair, and is even pretty to the female gaze. Too bad for them, he only has eyes for the for school nurse, Natsuki Enra.
* ''Manga/YonaOfTheDawn'':
** Jae-ha never misses an opportunity to bestow his beauty on anyone [[AmbiguouslyBi male or female]]. Since he is also TheCharmer and a ChickMagnet, most of his targets really don't mind (except Hak). Jae-ha is also the only one of the CastFullOfPrettyBoys who seems to know just how pretty he is and will try to use it to get what he wants (with varying success, his companions are completely immune). His waist-length green hair is tied beautifully back with a long yellow ribbon.
** While Kija's hair is shorter, it's still long enough to be tied back. And he's just as pretty as Jae-ha, just a lot more innocent...and slightly traumatized by infatuated women throwing themselves at him.
* ''Manhua/YouthGoneWild'' has several, though Lu Kai is most notable, completing the look with GuyLiner and lipstick.
* ''Franchise/YuGiOh'':
** The [[Anime/YuGiOh first]] series is guilty of this trope. You've got Bakura, Pegasus, Otogi, Espa Roba, Marik, Dartz and Sigfried. Like [[{{Bishounen}} much of the male characters]] in the ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' series, they are attractive too. Even the cards aren't immune to this, as Yugi's Dark Magician is just as handsome as most of the cast (though much of his hair is concealed by his hat and outfit).
** Continuing with ''Anime/YuGiOhGX'': Ryo, [[HotForTeacher Daitokuji-sensei]], Fubuki. In-Universe, the girls go crazy for them, [[TheCasanova especially the latter]].
** Christopher "Chris" Arclight—V—from ''Anime/YuGiOhZEXAL'' is definitely this. Women would be jealous with how long his hair is. He also happens to be quite handsome. Also, [[spoiler: Barian Emperor Mizael]] has hair that reaches down his back, [[spoiler: both in human ''and'' alien form.]]
* ''Anime/YuriOnIce'': Victor Nikiforov had long, waist-length hair as a teenager. As an adult his hair is much shorter, though he hasn't lost his pretty looks. It helps that he's a LivingLegend of a figure skater who's been highly skilled since his junior days and has [[EvenTheGuysWantHim male and female fans]].
* ''Manga/YuYuHakusho'':
** Kurama (normally red, [[spoiler:but turns white when he transforms into his Youko form]]), to the extent he suffers from a bad case of EvenTheGuysWantHim amoung the villians.
** Karasu has long black hair ([[PowerDyesYourHair which turns blond when he powers up]]). Considering his sadistic nature, this leads to a really creepy FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon effect.
** Shishiwakamaru is this in universe as well as out. He has a whole entourage of fangirls cheering for him and Yusuke jokes he should start a boy band because he "already has the looks for it" when he taunts him and his team.
** Sakyou, meanwhile, has more of a mullet, leads to the same FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon effect as Karasu.
* ''Anime/VoltesV'': [[EvilPrince Prince Heinel]] has unkempt, tousled blonde hair that goes past his shoulders. [[https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Prince_Heinel?file=Prince_Heinel_Concept.png#Development Concept art]] by Yuki Hijiri depicts him with wispier, curlier hair that resembles [[Manga/{{Berserk}} Griffith's]].

** Since his HeelFaceTurn, Loki has been increasingly depicted [[MrFanservice as attractive as possible]], so their hair has consequently been depicted as long. Not ''quite'' as long as Thor, mostly just to his shoulders or chin. Subverted of course since Loki is Gender Fluid and sometimes appears female-presenting, where they have their fair even longer; due to their attire being quite gender-concealing, their hair length is often used to distinguish between which gender identity they're currently presenting as.
