== Anime and Manga ==
* ''[[Redline]]'': [[In
* Mugen, from ''[[Samurai Champloo]]'', manages to maintain a strangely spiky hairstyle in ([[Anachronism Stew|approximately]]) 18th-century Japan without raising eyebrows. But, you know, hair can get pretty stiff when you ''never'' bathe.
* ''[[Afro Samurai (Anime)|Afro Samurai]]'': The title character has an afro. It is set in a world that pretty much ''defines'' [[Anachronism Stew]].
* As the [[DVD Commentary]] mentions, it's highly unlikely that ''[[Baccano (Light Novel)|Baccano!'s]]'' Graham Spector, a 1930's American mechanic/[[Talkative Loon]], would ever be able to get or maintain that J-rocker haircut of his..
* ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'': Setsuna's hair probably isn't outright impossible. However, she has bangs on only one side of her face, a weird spiky ponytail on one side while the other lets that hair just hang down naturally. And judging by her picture on the Negima character page, there appears to be another random hairband on the '[[Fashionable Asymmetry|normal]]' haircut side of her head.
* Hild, of ''[[Ah! My Goddess (Manga)|Ah My Goddess]]'' fame, is very guilty of this. Her hair manages to be extremely beautiful, yet there seems to be no way it could actually be done. Factor in that she has TONS of hair ornaments in there as well, all very strategically placed, and magic then seems the only way she's doing it.
* ''[[Gosick (Light Novel)|Gosick]]'' gives us Victorique's brother Grevil, who has a [http://imageshack.us/f/576/gosick22.png/ rather] [http://api.ning.com/files/nA4J1-vKDMITOcLWp5SuD1UXeTnDlqHifDuKf5*Vz*4Zdcc87iUgCZA3AKtSpjgaXnZZwbxPMJ0AVWnkZftMB3EC7v1Vdb6t/Gosick16736.png iconic] hairstyle, to put it mildly...
* ''[[Black Butler]]'': While mundane by Anime standards, most characters' haircuts would be ridiculous in Victorian England. Though Sebastian's [[Bishonen|Bishie]] bangs are [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] in the manga, Undertaker's, Druitt's and Edgar Redmond's ''fabulous'' 'do's are [[Unusually Uninteresting Sight|Unusually Uninteresting Sights]].
Line 61:
* ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'':
** Link's first video game incarnation sported bangs that defied gravity, to the point that he appears to be wearing a baseball cap. [[All There in the Manual|You wouldn't be able to tell in-game, though]].
** Ganondorf, who never used to put much effort into his hair, sported some sort of elaborate cross between dreadlocks and [[Princess Curls]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess (Video Game)|Twilight Princess]]'' (as seen [http://images1.fanpop.com/images/image_uploads/Ganondorf-super-smash-bros-brawl-915765_400_315.jpg here]).

* Agent J from ''[[Elite Beat Agents]]'', whose hair looks like some of it got caught in a candyfloss machine. [http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/0/3715/788744-fff_large.jpg See for yourself.]
Line 88:
* ''[[Kodomo no Omocha]]'': Sana's mother, whose hair is a combination of this, [[Nice Hat]], and miniature mobile theme park for the family's pet squirrel.
* ''[[Tiger and Bunny]]'''s Kotetsu has a very distinctive beard that, in real life, would take entirely too much time and skill with a razor for [[The Klutz|a guy like Kotetsu]] to manage. (Have ''you'' ever shaved your facial hair to resemble a cat?) Sunrise seems to acknowledge this, as Antonio has occasionally declared him a "beard narcissist" due to the amount of effort he puts into maintaining it.
* [[Inuyasha]] has two locks of hair over his shoulders that remain separate from his [[White
