Line 21:
** Brook and his hat.
** Surprisingly averted with the main character, Luffy, the only character (aside from Chopper) whose hat is actually important. His straw hat is his symbol, going so far that when he achieves fame, the World Government calls him "Straw Hat" Luffy, and his crew the "Straw Hat Pirates". It's Luffy's most precious treasure, given to him by his idol. And, as it turns out, {{spoiler|it was once the hat of Gold Roger, the pirate king.}} And yet, he's constantly seen without it, typically taking it off at the start of major fights and either setting it on the ground or giving it to a crewmate.
* The title character of ''[[
** It's hinted that her "hat" is actually her scalp (which explains why removing it is lethal); in one issue where she was [[Easy Amnesia|suffering from amnesia]], she tried to remove it only to find it fused to her head.
* Karasawa from ''[[Daily Lives of High School Boys]]'', who is always wearing a baseball cap.
Line 69:
* Swedish comic strip ''Elvis'' used to feature a character called Totte, who always wore a beret.
* Harry Dinkle of ''[[Funky Winkerbean]]'' never took off his band cap, except when wearing a helmet when helping with the school's construction. It wasn't until he retired from being the band conductor that he took it off... [[The Faceless|and his face was seen.]]
* [[Hagar the Horrible]] is almost never seen without his helmet, even sleeping with it on.

Line 100 ⟶ 102:
* Edd from ''[[Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy]]''. He actually gets very concerned about being seen without it, and when it actually comes off (which is never seen by the audience), the others seem shocked by what's underneath.
* A couple of examples from ''[[He-Man and the Masters of the Universe]]'':
** Orko never removes his hat, [[Our Nudity Is Different| as part of the Trollan custom]] that they never show their faces to anyone except their one true love. When he and Dree Elle showed each other their faces, they were kept offscreen; only shadows were shown. In one comic book story, Skeletor magically disguised himself as Orko and blew his cover by taking off his hat. Even that was kept in shadow!
** Evil-Lynn has been seen without her helmet in only three episodes (one of the original series, two in the relaunch) and one of those times was because she lost it in a brutal fight. Seeing as she uses magic to recover it later, she seems to be rather attached to it.
** In the original version, Ram-Man was never seen without his helmet (or without his armor, for that matter) and Man-At-Arms was seen without it only once (when he was asleep in his quarters) but in the relaunch both characters were seen bareheaded far more often. In both versions, the Sorceress is only seen without her headdress in flashbacks.
* The CGI kid racers in [[The BBC]]'s pre-school show ''[[Kerwhizz]]'' always wear armoured tracksuits with helmets.
* [[Kick Buttowski]] never takes off his helmet. He loses it in one episode (his head is covered with mud) and tries to find a replacement.
