Either it's unconscious telekinesis or itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny muscles (or just the animators being weird!), but however it's managed, the character's hair is independently mobile and responsive to their moods. Sometimes it's nothing more than a pigtail that sticks out straight in defiance of gravity when the character's shocked or frightened, but it can go so far as fully prehensile braids that shape themselves into hearts, question marks, and other iconic forms. See also its sister trope, Expressive Mask, and its (occasionally) more violent cousin, Prehensile Hair. For when it's specific to illness, head over to Bedhead-itis. See also Expressive Ears, Expressive Accessory. Can be related to Kaleidoscope Hair if the hair changes color. |

Ranma ½: Ranma has the "simple" extending pigtail form. A Filler manga story has Genma Saotome take a hair-restoring tonic that gives him a ridiculously large, spiky hairdo (a parody of the hairstyles of Super Saiyans from Dragon Ball Z) when he's angry, which actually attacks the source of his anger. |

The Simpsons: Parodied; when Willie Nelson successfully reunites the family, his trademark braids rise like those of Pippi Longstocking. Krusty the Clown has expressive hair, especially in the season 4 episode "Lisa's First Word". During a Krusty Burger commercial for the 1984 Olympics, Krusty bites into a Krusty Burger. When the commercial ends and the director yells, "Cut!", Krusty spits out the burger and his hair droops (then slightly comes back up after he drinks some booze from a flask to wash the taste out of his mouth). In "The Caper Chase", Lisa's hair "spikes" droop when Homer becomes a college professor and shows that he doesn't have the slightest idea of what he's supposed to do. |

In Naruto, it happens with Kushina's (Naruto's mother) hair. Whenever she handed out violent retribution for people making fun of her (her round face and red hair), earning the nickname "Red Hot-Blooded Habanero", her hair floated wildly in the air. Furthermore, the Naruto cover for chapter 503 [1]◊ features Kushina's hair resembling Kyuubi's tails, symbolizing her status as the previous Kyuubi Jinchuuriki. | |

A Certain Scientific Railgun: In one page of the manga, Mikoto's hair stands up waves around like an antenna points towards Touma, who is completely behind her at this point walking a different direction, and she runs after him.

Azumanga Daioh: Chiyo's pigtails occasionally flap up and down when she gets emotional, such as when a thunderclap scares the living daylights out of her, when she tries to reassure Osaka that everyone will still be classmates in their next year of school, or when Yukari gets offended by her claim that Osaka would make a great teacher. Osaka's first New Year's dream takes this trope literally, depicting Chiyo's pigtails as sentient. | |

As with the books, Tonks from the Harry Potter series can change her hair color at will. In the films, her hair color functions somewhat like a mood ring; it is pink when she is contented, and briefly turns fire-red when Mad-Eye Moody calls her by her first name, Nymphadora (which she despises). | |

Buso Renkin: Okakura's large ducktail has a tendency to move and change sizes according to his mood, growing and standing up straight when he annoyed, and drooping when he is depressed.

Note that the hair is only smal detail so it's only a funny extra, not focus of the gags. | |

Two notable examples in Shaman King: Ren's trademark spike of hair raises/gets taller when he gets angry. On the other hand, Ryu's pompadour (whatever state it's in) droops and raises with his mood. The most extreme example was when he realized that Lyserg had gone to another team, and his hair fell out of the pompadour instantly due to grief. | |

KaBlam!: In some early episodes, June's ponytail seemed to stick up when she was scared or shocked, and drooped when she was sad or tired. This was dropped after a few episodes, however. Loopy's pigtails seem to rise a bit when she's scared, curious or inspired. Also in the episode "Comics of Champions", when June keeps on teasing Henry about his crush on Thundergirl, he gets so upset that his hair goes on fire, but June puts it out (wearing a firefighter hat with a siren in the background). |

In A Tale of Two Cities, of all things. For most of the story, Jerry Cruncher's hair is simple described as very spiky, but in chapter thirty eight, while Jerry is being lied to, there is a "sudden extraordinary rising and stiffening of all the risen and stiff hair on Mr. Cruncher's head." As if to hammer the point home, Dickens relayed this to the reader by having another character notice the shadow of the hair moving on the wall. | |

Harley Quinn from Batman: The Animated Series has blond pigtails when she's not in costume that perk up or droop, depending on her moods. They still do it in costume; they're just stuffed in her hat and take it with them. Poison Ivy's hairdo near the end of her debut episode. When she's calm/sultry its straight, when she's angry or frightened it becomes wild and unkempt. |

Lucy in Servant × Service has an Idiot Hair that has the interesting ability to change form depending on her current feelings. A pretty exaggerated example occurs in episode 11, when Saya saw Lucy in the bookstore but there was a bookshelf between the two, so all that is visible to Saya was the said idiot hair. Saya then started watching that idiot hair when Lucy looks for a book and predicted what happened accordingly—from looking for it (Side to side bobbing), to finding it (It literally wags), and at last to disappointment when it costs too much (It droops down). When she actually get to talk to Lucy, those predictions came to be completely correct. | |

For some reason, when he is about to use his Wax-Wax powers, the tip sets itself on fire without the flame spreading or him feeling it. And then there is Franky whose hair works as a fuel gauge and also indicates what kind of fuel he's currently on. Franky can now control his hair by pressing down his nose. Considering how much Oda loves afros and mohawks, it's no surprise that this is currently all it's been used for. |

In Negima!?, an Alternate Continuity of Negima! Magister Negi Magi, being expressive is the default state of Asuna's hair, forming anything from exclamation marks and question marks to words and Cross-Popping Veins. In the first episode alone, her pigtails stand up when she is agitated, and repeatedly formed the numerals for the number of minutes of extra sleep she wanted. And as if that weren't enough, the bells she wears in them get into the act as well, firing off like cannons when reaches a certain level of frustration. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic has Pinkie Pie's mane, which is apparently made curly by sheer exuberance. When she's bummed out, it becomes straight. It can't even be styled when she's sufficiently happy or excited — it just springs back to its usual curly shape. Her Equestria Girls counterpart is similar, with the addition of her hair being straight in the morning and only bouncing to its usual curly appearance once she's fully awake. | |

Ace Attorney: Daryan Crescend from Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney. He has a massive long hairdo reminiscent of a shark. It flops around, droops when you catch him lying on the witness stand and becomes rigid when he's in a good mood. Trials & Tribulations has Ron DeLite, whose cinnamon-bun curls of hair on the sides of his head uncurl and spring out when he's upset. This trope is actually pretty common across a lot of animations in the series, especially when the character is nervous. T&T also introduces us, in a flashback case, to Winston Payne's pompadour which droops whenever he's nervous. When Mia corners him into a state of shock, it rapidly disintegrates, explaining his present hair loss. Pearl's pretzel-hair mysteriously bounces when she's shocked, or grinning manically/happily. Also, when she's sad, her hair droops backward while she tilts forward. Hell, Phoenix and Apollo themselves. Their hair looks quite downcast when they're losing, and returns triumphant come victory time. Gyakuten Kenji 2 introduces us to Sebastian Debeste's question mark-shaped Idiot Hair that turns into an exclamation mark whenever he's surprised. Uendo Toneido in Spirit of Justice has a ponytail that moves around depending on which of his Split Personalities is currently speaking. |

Rurouni Kenshin: Misao's braid often acts like a cat's tail: from stiffening (or getting a kink) when she's angry to curving up when she's surprised. Chou, he of perpetually vertical Anime Hair, once claimed that he was so mad his hair stood on end. Kenshin snarked right back that Chou's hair is always like a broom. |

Suzuna from Eyeshield 21 has an antenna-like bit of hair in the front that zeros in on anyone talking about their romantic relationships (usually denying one). Also, sports commentator "Machine Gun" Sanada has sawblade-like protrusions of hair that start rotating when he gets fired up (moreso than usual, anyway). | |

Ogiue from Genshiken has a spiky pigtail that sometimes stands up when she's startled. | |

Alucard from Hellsing chose his form as the vampire we see, so when he gets bit on the crazy bloodlust side, his hair writhes like tentacles and get more of a jagged outline. | |

Sailor Moon uses this effect to make Usagi (whose name means "bunny") vaguely resemble a rabbit at comic moments. Not to mention that during transformation sequences, her odango seem to move on their own in whatever way they want, regardless of the external forces. There's even an early example of her round balls turning into detached stars for a moment. | |

Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove it: Himuro's ponytail wags side to side like a dog's tail when she's thinking about Yukimura. Unlike most examples where it's merely an anime gag, Yukimura actually acknowledges that her hair is moving and questions how it does that. | |

Mob of Mob Psycho 100 is prone to Supernatural Floating Hair when using his Psychic Powers; and since said Psychic Powers are an inherent part of his emotional expression, this means that his conservative bowlcut tends to fray and fall apart as he gets increasingly worked up, turning into full-on Shounen Hair when he hits 100%. | |
