Main Name	hair style (t14)
Family Tree	hairno description set · hair styleno description set · · afroAn Afro is a hairstyle worn naturally by people with lengthy kinky hair texture or specifically styled in such a fashion by individuals with naturally curly or straight hair. The hairstyle is created by combing the hair away from the scalp, allowing the hair to extend out from the head in a large, rounded shape, much like a cloud or ball. · · ahogeConsisting of a single, often large, lock of hair sticking out from the top of the head, it is most often used to identify foolish, bumbling or carefree characters. · · bob cutA bob cut or bob is a short haircut for women (and occasionally men) in which the hair is typically cut straight around the head at about jaw-level, often with a fringe/bangs at the front. The bob is cut at the level of ears, below the ears, or above shoulders. If the sidelocks are distinct, it is possibly a hime cut. · · braidsBraids is a style of hair in which the hair is interweaved into locks. Braids can be displayed in various styles, such as twin braid tails or a braided hair hairband. · · chonmageThe chonmage is a traditional Japanese haircut associated with samurai of the Edo era and with present-day sumo wrestlers. · · cornrowsA hair style in which the hair is braided close to the head in thin rows. The rows can be straight, curved, zig-zagged, or formed into other complex geometric designs. · · crew cutHairdo buzzed/clipped/trimmed close to the scalp. · · curly hairThis character has locks of hair that grow in a curved, rather than straight, direction. · · double hairbunA double hairbun is a hairstyle sporting two off-center hairbuns, one to each side of the head. Like with a single hairbun and a ponytail, double hairbuns may be at the base of twintails. Stereotypical Chinese females are often seen wearing a cheongsam and a pair of hairbuns. The style can also be referred to as dango or odango, in reference to a type of Japanese dumpling with the same format. · · dreadlocksDreadlocks also called locks or dreads, are matted coils of hair. Dreadlocks are associated most closely with the recent Rastafari movement, but people from many groups in history before them have worn dreadlocks, including the Hindu Shiva worshippers of India, historic African peoples, and the Sufis of Pakistan. · · drill hairAn easy way to tell if a female character in Japanese media is of high social standing is to not look for a crown or an Ermine Cape, but to look at the front of her head. Specifically, look for two long, curled locks of hair, framing the face. If she has them, she either is high class or acts like it. Needless to say, this is pretty much mandatory for the Ojou. Some Elegant Gothic Lolitas also sport this hairstyle. · · hair antennaeHair antennae are two, or sometimes more, strands of hair that stick up from the top of the head and curve forward like antennae. Not to be confused with ahoge ("idiot hair"), which only has one strand and is commonly associated with idiots. · · hair bangsHair bangs are a shaped cutting of the front part of the hair so it lies over the forehead. Bangs are usually cut fairly straight - at or above the eyebrows, but can also be curled, ragged/ruffled, spiked up with hair gel, mousse or wax, swept aside, or cut longer to fall over the eyes. · · hair intakesHair intakes are a style of hair that creates twin forward-facing scoops, oftentimes in the form of hair bangs/fringe. This style of bangs/fringe in the shape of scoops often (but not always) create the appearance of an opening similar to an air intake vent, hence the name "hair intake". · · hair loopsHair loops are when tails of hair have their ends tied back to the head, forming a free-standing loop of hair. · · hair over both eyesHair over both eyes is hair that is combed over or falls that fall over both eyes, often but not always in the form of hair bangs/fringe, hiding them from view. That is a particularly common design choice for male characters in pornography, especially pornographic visual novels. Often, the hair does not cover the eyes area completely, but the eyes are completely hidden nonetheless, as if they did not exist. · · hair over one eyeHair that is combed over or falls over either eye, often but not always in the form of hair bangs/fringe. Typically associated with emotionally unstable characters ("emos") or shy or mysterious characters. Sometimes they cover a disfigurement such as horrible scarring or a blind eye. · · hime cutA hime cut is a hairstyle consisting of straight, short (usually cheek-length to shoulder-length) sidelocks, and frontal bangs/fringe, specifically in the blunt bangs style. The short sidelocks ("hime locks") can be accompanied by longer sidelocks behind the hime locks, and still qualify the hairstyle as a hime cut. The defining feature is the layered or "staircase" look that is formed with the bangs and the short hime locks. If the sidelocks are not distinct, it is likely a bob cut. · · mohawkThe name of a hairstyle in which, in the most common variety, both sides of the head are shaven, leaving a strip of noticeably longer hair in the center. It is associated mostly with the punk rock subculture. · · moptopThe Beatle haircut, also known as the moptop (or mop-top) —because of its resemblance to a mop—or Arthur amongst fans, is a mid-length hairstyle named after and popularised by the Beatles. It is a straight cut - collar-length at the back and over the ears at the sides, with a straight fringe/bangs. · · mulletThe mullet is a hairstyle that is short at the front and sides but long in the back. · · perm hairstyleA permanent wave, commonly called a perm, is the chemical and/or thermal treatment of hair to produce waves, curls or straight hair. The use of the word `permanent` is justified insofar as when the wave is permed, it remains so; however, as the hair grows, the new hair that grows has not been waved, while cutting the hair from the end removes that which is waved, giving the impression that the permanent wave gradually disappears. · · pompadourThe pompadour is a hairstyle that has hair swept upwards from the face and worn high over the forehead. · · ponytailA ponytail is a hairstyle in which most or all of the hair on the head is gathered and secured at the back of the head with a hair tie, clip or similar device, and allowed to hang freely from that point. · · prehensile hairSometimes people have a hairdo so big it seems like it has a mind of its own, and moves on its own accord. And then there are the people who have the ability to make it move. Characters with "superpowers" that allow their mullets to become murderous. · · rattailA rattail is a hair style that is characterized by a long "tail"-like element of hair growing downward from the bottom-back of the head. The rattail usually hangs naturally; however, it can be braided, treated as a dread, permed, straightened, poofed, or curled with an iron. In some instances, an individual might choose to grow several tails as opposed to a single very long tail. · · sidelocksSidelocks are long locks of hair that come down the side of the face, ing in front of the ears. Sidelocks do NOT count as long hair. · · single hairbunA single hairbun is a hairstyle sporting one hairbun. To produce a hairbun, hair is pulled backwards and twisted or plaited, then wrapped in a circular coil around itself. A hairbun can be at the base of a ponytail. A single hairbun is typically placed on the back of the head or near the neck, aligned with the middle of the body. A hairstyle sporting two off-center hairbuns, one to each side, is a double hairbun and not a single hairbun. · · spiked hairThe hair is styled up into spikes. · · twintailsTwintails are type of hairstyle where the hair is gathered into two "tails" on either side of the head. Twintails may also include a pair hair buns, one bun at the base of each tail. · · widow`s peakA widow`s peak is a V-shaped point in the hairline in the center of the forehead. · · winged cutno description set
