Nobody Touches the Hair: Difference between revisions

This could be seen as a subtrope of [[Hates Being Touched]], but it's usually used to convey a completely different message about the character. Whereas a character who [[Hates Being Touched]] is generally a very reserved or shy character, a character who tells others [['''Nobody Touches the Hair]]''' is in general the opposite - the point here is to convey pride and vanity. As [[Traumatic Haircut]] explains, the hair is often seen as similar to a peacock's tail - a display - and so it is a very easy symbol for vanity in general. Also, whereas [[Hates Being Touched]] is probably about 50/50 comedy to drama, this trope is ''overwhelmingly'' comic.
