Short Hair or [[Rapunzel Hair|Long Hair]]? Short implies that the character is practical, independent, and strong. For women, long hair means that [[Long Hair Is Feminine|she's feminine, beautiful, even princessy]], but on men it's [[Badass Long Hair|just plain awesome]]. So, with these two opposing hair philosophies, will the creator choose the practicality and ease of a short cut, or the awesomeness of hair that goes ''fwish'' for dramatic effect?
 
You need never choose between the two again. A woman who has Short Hair with Tail has the spunk and practicality of a Short-haired Hottie with all the flowy drama or [[Rapunzel Hair]]. A man who has Short Hair with Tail has the stereotypical, short male haircut at the front ''but'' gets to be a [[Badass Long Hair]] or [[Long -Haired Pretty Boy]] at the same time.
 
Characters with this hairstyle simultaneously rock the short and the long styles -- [[Rule of Cool|they're just that awesome]]. Distinct from [[Hime Cut]] in that hime cuts have mid-length side tresses to frame the face, and all long in back, while [[Short Hair With Tail]] is quite obviously a short style all around ''with'' a noticeable tail.

== [[Anime]] & [[Manga]] ==
* Soi-Fon (the captain of Squad 2) in ''[[Bleach]]'' has two. If [[Short HairwithHair With Tail]] is any character indicator, the short cut says she can [[Action Girl|kick some serious butt with the rest of them]], and the long hair is in keeping with the dramatic, showy side of her personality and how girly she gets around [[Les Yay|Yoruichi]].
* ''[[Macross Frontier]]'' has Ozma Lee, who pulls off a badass haircut that this troper has seen go horribly wrong in real life. Short clipped and tousled all around with [[Badass Long Hair|a ponytail down his back]]. This man has no mullet--he has pure awesome growing from his scalp.
* ''[[Tenchi Muyo]]'' has [[Rich Bitch|Princess Ayeka]]. You'd hardly know she had the long hair without all that dramatic wind that keeps blowing. But she still has an adorable helmet-hair bob and some serious [[Rapunzel Hair]] long twin tails.

* [http://www.creativeuncut.com/gallery-01/ffta-marche.html Marche] from ''[[Final Fantasy Tactics Advance]]''.
* Grown-up Aile from ''[[Mega Man ZX]] Advent''.
* [[Pretty Boy|Pretty Boys]] Yukimura and Nagamasa (and [[Butt Monkey|Kanbe]]) from ''[[Sengoku Basara]]'' all have this, suposedly so they could keep their long [[Samurai]] hair while staying [[Hot -Blooded]] and manly.
* Firion and The Onion Knight in ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy]]''
* In ''[[Valkyrie Profile Covenant of the Plume]]'', [http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100131164915/valkyrieprofile/images/4/44/Valkyrie_profile_covenant_of_the_plume_art_3%282%29.jpg Cheripha] has this.
