In anime, animesque shows etc., I see sometimes characters having a bit weird hairstyle: otherwise long hair, but then there are shorter pigtails (or sometimes a ponytail). Sometimes it manifests as four pigtails, two long and two short. Examples include:
- Cure Twinkle (Go! Princess Pretty Cure)
- Cure Magical (Maho Girls Pretty Cure!, ponytail(?) variant)
- Jinx's Star Guardian skin (League of Legends)
- As a border-line case, Misa Amane (Death Note), depending on how art is going at the moment. Though usually she pulls a realistic version of this type of hair, having part of her long hair gathered into pigtails.
(I have seen more but I can't immediately recall them.)
That kind of hair makes me curious, as pulling that kind of hair sounds a bit hard; how can you find all the short hair in all that long hair every morning? No wonder I have seen this hairstyle more in the magical girl genre.
I know there are Anime Hair and Improbable Hairstyle, but anything more specific?
