Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })It seems that to properly convey that your male character is an Absent-Minded Professor or a Mad Scientist in fiction, you only need one thing: give him Einstein-esque hair. Bonus points if you go for the complete look. Additional bonus points if he uses a Van de Graaff generator or a Tesla coil instead of combing. | |

Dr. Stein of Blood Stain doesn't bother with personal hygiene despite his work in science. The webcomic's creator, Sigeel, jokingly justifies his messy hair by drawing him with shampoo that makes his hair resemble bramble. | |

Dr. Wily of Mega Man (Classic) has an exaggerated form of this trope, with a more prominent bald spot and both his hair and mustache being bushier. His first name is also Albert, making him practically an evil Expy of Einstein. Nobody's quite sure why Capcom made the villain so clearly Einsteinian, but a popular (half)joke theory is that it's some lingering anger over the Atomic Bomb. | |

Doc Brown from Back to the Future has wild white hair that sticks out in all directions. In 1985, he has a dog named Einstein, who is his first living test subject for his time-travel experiments, and much of the movie takes place in 1955, the same year Einstein died. The 1955 Doc even comments on the fact that he still has the hairstyle when watching a video of his future self. Christopher Lloyd said in an interview that the hairstyle was inspired by a combination of Einstein and Leopold Stokowski (the orchestral conductor in Fantasia) In the Telltale Games video game series, it's shown that young Emmett first got the hairstyle after an invention literally blew up in his face. During Brown's quick cameo in the pre-show for The Simpsons Ride, he's glad when Krusty has acquired the Institute of Future Technology and Krusty orders him to get a haircut- it takes him three hours every morning just to get his hair like that. |

In Girl Genius, Agatha has some hair sticking out upwards the top of her head. According to Word of God, that's because a Mad Scientist must have mussy hair, so basically it's the long-haired female version of this trope. And her hair is determined to stay that way. | |

Sadoc Burrows from The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power has a bit of dome similar to Albert Einstein and grizzly curly hair reminiscent of the Mad Scientist Afro. He is the only gray-haired Harfoot and the closer thing to a scientist the clan of hobbits has, as he is a very erudite Astrologer. | |

Johnny Maxwell Trilogy: In Johnny and the Dead, Albert Einstein's distant cousin Solomon (who was a taxidermist by trade, but also something of a philosopher; after all, you have a lot of time for abstract thought when you've got your hand up a dead badger) is described as having "a mass of white hair in that dandelion-clock style known as a Mad Scientist Afro". | |

Senku in Dr. STONE has a more vertically oriented version of this trope, combining it with Anime Hair. He seems to invoke the comparison to Einstein, given the E=mc^2 written on his clothes and him mimicking the "tongue out" pose in the first photograph in 3700 years. | |
