Fair-haired guys in media frequently end up evil. This is especially noticeable if he is compared to a nice, dark-haired hero (think Harry Potter vs. Draco Malfoy) or if he is on the opposite end of a [[Love Triangle]]. And if his blond hair is ''long'', you'd better hope [[The Lord of the Rings|he's an elf]], because if not, that's pretty much evil incarnate. In many ways, this trope can be seen as the less extreme version of the [[Evil Albino]].
If they're ''not'' evil, they're still jerks, although they may or may not [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|be nice underneath]], and they usually lose. Where a [[Betty and Veronica]] usually has a [[Hair of Gold|blond]] Betty and a dark- or [[Heroes Want Redheads|red-haired]] Veronica, a male version of this setup will do the reverse.

** Draco and Lucius Malfoy.
** Gellert Grindelwald.
** Also, Barty Crouch Jr. from ''[[
** Some of the minor Death Eater characters, such as Yaxley, are also blonde.
** Gilderoy Lockhart. He's not a Death Eater, but he's definitely a jerk and a fraud. At the end of ''[[
** Dudley Dursley. In the film he got an [[Adaptation Dye Job]].
* The Daimons in the ''[[The Dark Hunters|Dark Hunter]]'' books are perpetually 27, beautiful, tall, blonde...and will kill you and suck out your soul to elongate their lives. Jerks.
Line 297:
* Deus from ''[[Asura's Wrath]]''. He combines this with [[Scary Black Man]].
* {{spoiler|Dimitri}} crosses into this territory in ''[[Fire Emblem: Three Houses]]''. {{spoiler|When he learns that Edelgard is the Flame Emperor and loses his mind, the fair-haired prince becomes a bloodthirsty madman willing to kill friend and foe alike in the most brutal ways imaginable. He gets better in the Azure Moon route and is more of a [[Hero Antagonist]] in [[Villain Protagonist|the Crimson Flower route]], but in Verdant Wind and Silver Snow, he dies consumed by anger and hatred}}.
* Rufus, one of the "Crow Men" being hunted by Primrose Azelhart in ''[[Octopath Traveller]]'' (ironically though, his name means ''red''-haired in Latin). Already a bad guy from the offset since he helped murder her loving father, he's later revealed to be a crime lord who sells women into sexual slavery while encouraging his customers to use and abuse their slaves as they please. Esmeralda, a high-ranking member of his organization (The Obsidians) fought as the final boss of Tressa's route, however, is an example of how [[Gender Inverted Example|Blond Gals Are Evil]].
