History Main / NeverBareheaded

* [[TheDragon Thelonius]] from ''{{WesternAnimation/Shrek1}}'' wears an executioner's hood which he for some reason never removes.

* Ralphie in ''Literature/TheMagicSchoolBus'' is always wearing a backwards baseball cap, only taking it off once or twice while sweating, or if the situation calls for him to wear a different piece of headgear (and even then he may still wear the hat underneath). He didn't even take off his hat when he got sick and confined to bed. Made even more bizarre by the fact that he's in an elementary school, which usually has rules against this sort of thing. He even keeps it in the reboot/sequel ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicSchoolbusRidesAgain''.

* Maid Marian from ''WesternAnimation/RobinHood1973'' is never seen without her ear-shaped headdress on (although the veil ''can'' be removed), preventing the viewers from seeing her hears underneath.

** Bianca from ''Anime/PokemonHeroes'' is never seen without her white beret, which the disguised Latias does not wear.

* ''VideoGame/FZero'': Captain Falcon is only depicted without his face-obscuring helmet twice, if you win the GP in Master Class in ''F-Zero X'' and at the end of ''F-Zero GX''[='s=] story mode. Even then, in the case of the latter, he faces away from the camera so you only see the back of his head. This is why it was a huge deal when, [[spoiler:during his HeroicSacrifice]] in the anime, his helmet flies off and his face is revealed. Other characters throughout ''GP Legend''[='s=] run were able to deduce his SecretIdentity and Falcon did outright reveal himself to one character, but his back was to the viewers then. Maybe that's because he was based on ComicBook/JudgeDredd.

* Creator/RobertRodriguez is almost never seen without wearing a hat, first a famous stetson and in recent years, a black baseball cap.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}'': Sprig and Ivy are almost always seen with their hats on. It’s because they’re embarrassed of their hair. Also, for Spring, it [[spoiler:was a gift from his [[DeceasedParentsAreTheBest late parents]].]] Polly is also rarely seen without her bow on, although unlike her brother’s hat, it doesn’t seem to have much personal significance.

** Numbuh Five rarely takes her hat off; in "Operation: L.I.C.E.", when the Delightful Children replaced it with a decoy infested with mutant lice, she discarded it only long enough to get a new one. Other than that, if she takes it off it's in order to use it in some important way, like in "Operation: C.A.K.E.D.-T.W.O." when she threw it to expose a hologram.

* ''[[VideoGame/{{Onmyoji}} Onmyōji]]'': Seimei is always wearing some sort of hat in all of his [[CharacterCustomization skins]].

* ''VideoGame/BrainDead13'': Averted in Vivi's Salon, when Vivi grabs Lance's baseball cap and uses it as a [[BoundAndGagged gag]] to ensure that he can't scream during the painful "makeover". Also averted in some death scenes.

* Charmy Bee in the ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' series is never seen without his pilot helmet on his head. Similarly, Vector never removes his headphones off his head.

* ''Animation/BoBoiBoy'': The titular KidHero always wears his [[SignatureHeadgear iconic orange "dinosaur" cap]]. One of many comic strips from the earliest magazines for the show that lampshade this involve his grandfather being shocked when [=BoBoiBoy=] casually states that he hasn't washed his hat in ''two months''. In ''Animation/BoBoiBoyTheMovie'', he wears a shower cap to the bathroom which is similar to his hat, and it's in the climax that his full head of hair is seen for the first time. After Bora Ra knocks it off of him, [=BoBoiBoy=]'s black hair is revealed to have a frontal skunk stripe.

* ''Animation/BoBoiBoy'': The titular KidHero always wears his [[SignatureHeadgear iconic orange "dinosaur" cap]]. The first time his full head of hair is ever seen is in TheMovie towards the climax. One of many comic strips from the earliest magazines for the show that lampshade this involve his grandfather being shocked when [=BoBoiBoy=] casually states that he hasn't washed his hat in ''two months''.

** Handy always wear his hard hat, on and off the clock.

* ''Literature/GoblinSlayer'': The titular character is almost ''never'' seen without his iconic one-horned helmet on, and the very few times he does take it off on-screen, [[TheFaceless you aren't shown his face]].

** Jotaro Kujo's hat is such an integral part of his character that it seems to merge with his hair (or else the back half is shredded in such a way that it's impossible to discern from his hair). This works better in ''Manga/StardustCrusaders'' where his hat is black; in later appearances in ''Manga/DiamondIsUnbreakable'' and ''Manga/StoneOcean'', where he wears white and purple respectively, the hat seems to fade into his hair. And of course, he never intentionally takes it off, but it does get knocked off his head once or twice by enemies.
--->'''Jotaro:''': You knocked off my hat. I don't even take that thing off when I'm underwater.

* [[WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}} Amphibia]]: Sprig and Ivy are almost always seen with their hats on. It’s because they’re embarrassed of their hair. Also, for Spring, it [[spoiler:was a gift from his [[DeceasedParentsAreTheBest late parents]].]] Polly is also rarely seen without her bow on, although unlike her brother’s hat, it doesn’t seem to have much personal significance.
* Fern from ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}} '' is never seen without a bow on her head.
