** Also happens at least twice to Kat. First, towards the end of Chapter 29, when Kat finally makes her peace with what she learned about {{spoiler|Jeanne and Diego}} and trims her [[Beard of Sorrow|locks of sorrow]]; Second, in Chapter 32 when she returns from summer holidays with a new style - and a chip on her shoulder after {{spoiler|Annie ran away to the Gilletie Forest without telling her}}.
** In Chapter 51 {{spoiler|Annie too}} cut her hair. This one was a part of rather ill-conceived {{spoiler|magical surgery}}, however.
* Alex from ''[[Khaos Komix]]'' got a [https://web.archive.org/web/20110517045443/http://www.khaoskomix.com/cgi-bin/comic.cgi?chp=6&page=31 haircut from his sister], as a part of tryting to transform himself more attractive. Earlier, Maria started her change into Tom by [http://shorthaircutsv.com Short Haircuts]
* Felix in ''[[Queen of Wands]]'' usually sports long, bright blue hair; he cuts it and gets rid of the dye when {{spoiler|the baby comes}}.
* Nimmel from ''[[Dominic Deegan]]'' gives himself one in [http://www.dominic-deegan.com/view.php?date=2010-03-19 this strip].
* [[Derelict (webcomic)|Derelict]] [http://derelictcomic.com/?strip_id=33 here]
* [[Roza]] [http://www.junglestudio.com/roza/index.php?date=2007-05-09 The horse's tail]
* [[Strays]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20110830130710/http://www.straysonline.com/comic/169.htm Holland subjects Meela to one]
* Inverted in [[Drowtales]] - when Vaelia is no longer a slave and becomes Ariel's servant and guardian, she gets hair extensions. This is justified because short hair on women is a telltale sigh of slavery, even without a slave collar. Long hair on a human in Drow world would cause anyone to have a double-take.
* The Weaponmaster in [[The War of Winds]] does this to himself because he expects to die in the next battle. The act is a warrior tradition from his homeland acting as a symbol of his slavery to fate.

** Katara's Fire Nation disguise includes a topknot. She looks like an exotic dancer. Most Avatar costume changes are treated like 'duh, we needed new clothes, we are wearing them,' in a distinct aversion of [[Only One Outfit]] ''despite the fact'' that in the setting the characters usually do have access to about one outfit at a time, but this gets a little highlighting since it involves wearing the colors of the enemy.
** {{spoiler|Azula's}} haircut is the sign that {{spoiler|she is coming unhinged due to paranoia and mistrust.}}
** Zuko actually had another important haircut, just after he was banished (with his Uncle Iroh). Beforehand, he had [http://piandao.org/screencaps/ep12/ep12-530.png a full head of hair,]{{Dead link}} but just a week later, he was [http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100705165233/avatar/images/9/9e/Zuko_Iroh_WAT.png mostly bald.]{{Dead link}} It's never explained if this haircut was a symbolic haircut of disgrace forced on him when he was banished, something he did to himself for his own reasons, or simply a way to keep his hair out of his face while his burn healed. After all [http://www.healthytextures.com/articles/20100412 badly burned hair] would have to be removed and anything hot enough to cause 2nd degree burns would definately scorch your hair.
* In the transition from ''[[Justice League]]'' to ''[[Justice League Unlimited]]'', [[Green Lantern]] John Stewart, like Sisko before him, shaves ''his'' head and grows a goatee. Whether this is a deliberate reference to Sisko is unknown. Unusually for a male character, Stewart's Important Haircut immediately follows his traumatic break up with Shayera.
* The completion of Anakin's training as a Padawan and his becoming a Jedi is signified in ''[[Star Wars: Clone Wars]]'' when Yoda slices off Anakin's braid with a light saber in a Jedi Knighting ceremony. Later Anakin has it sent to Padme, who keeps it in a small jewelry box.
