A character gifting another a lock of their hair usually signifies love: everybody loves their hair, so cutting even a tiny part of it for someone else is like a small sacrifice, signifying that you would perhaps do greater things for the ones you love. Our hair is also thought of as a living part of our body, so having a lock of hair from a loved one can help you remember them. This can soon become a Tragic Keepsake if said loved one has passed away, for example. This trope can occur in several variants. In the first, two characters are saying goodbye. They don't want to forget each other, and there are no cameras around to make a Precious Photo. In this case, a character (usually a woman) will cut a lock of her hair, so the other can remember them even miles away. This is rather spontaneous. This is a farewell gift, and sometimes The Lady's Favour. In a second variant, a character (again, usually a woman) cuts a lock of her hair to give as a gift. This is more likely to be prepared, as in braided or made into something else, like a bracelet. In this case, this gift celebrates the friendship or love between the two characters. This and the former example are both the complete opposite of Creepy Souvenir, despite hair being a part of the body. In a third variant, a character will cut a piece of another's hair (with or without their knowledge or consent), to again, help them remember. This variant may overlap with Stalker with a Crush, and by extension Creepy Souvenir. A variant is for one schoolchildren to secretly cut another kid's long hair or braids as a mean prank. This may be done in the classroom by a student seated behind the targeted person. Since most men in fiction sport short hair, the hair in this trope is almost always a woman's. Of course, if a man has long, flowing locks of hair, he too may have hair cut off. Truth in Television, as it was popular, especially in the Victorian Era, to keep items of jewellery containing a piece of a loved one's hair, especially after said person has passed away. Hair was considered to be a living, remnant part of that person, making it more sentimental than, for example, a portrait. Parents may take locks of hair from their baby to put in an album as a keepsake. Sub-Trope of Prized Possession Giveaway. Compare Creepy Souvenir. |

Adventure Time: According to "His Hero", Billy once saved a Damsel in Distress from the evil Fire Count "with such bravery/That she offered him her hair". In "To Cut a Woman's Hair", a balding wicked witch blackmails Finn into getting her beautiful hair from a princess. Finn goes around asking all the princesses he knows for hair (without being allowed to explain why), and they all think he's asking for The Lady's Favour and get all flirty. "What Was Missing" reveals that Finn keeps a piece of Princess Bubblegum's candy hair and sometimes touches it. |

In the Community episode "The First Chang Dynasty", Troy agrees to join the Air Conditioning Repair Annex in exchange for their help in rescuing his friends from Chang. As he says goodbye to his friends at the end of the episode, Britta (with whom there has been some mutual attraction with Troy hinted at in the prior few episodes) gives Troy a lock of her hair as a keepsake. The rest of the group grumbles and scowls, lampshading how the gesture is more creepy than anything else to modern audiences. | |

The Chrysalids is set in a post-apocalyptic society where any congenital anomaly is seen as the devil's mark and the affected person is cast out. When Sophie, a young girl with an extra toe on each foot, is forced to flee with her parents after her secret is discovered, she gives a lock of her hair to her friend David (the story's narrator) for him to remember her by. However, this becomes a Tragic Keepsake, as David's father forces him to betray her, and she and her parents are subsequently captured, though David is assured that this happened by chance. | |

Several times in the Vorkosigan Saga: In Cetaganda an example of the second variant: A beautiful haut woman gives a coil of her own hair to Miles Vorkosigan as a gift, to remember her by. (Haut women pride themselves on having extraordinarily long floor-length hair that is never cut.) She isn't in love with him, and confesses she doesn't even really know what her gift signifies, but Miles certainly made an impression on her (and her on him). In an example of the third variant: In Barrayar a man who has been brainwashed into acting as a rapist and torturer (then later for political reasons brainwashed into forgetting everything he did) manages to keep some of the hair of one of his victims (for whom he had developed an intense obsession) which he uses to partially counteract the forced amnesia "therapy". In an even more horrific example of the third variant: In Shards of Honor a high-ranking military officer (the "employer" of the man in the above example), a vicious sadist and rapist, cuts a lock of her very distinctive red hair from his would-be victim, with plans to use it to torment the woman's lover (one of his brother officers) by taking it out and playing with it "quite casually, at the Staff meeting". |

Discussed in Monstrous Regiment. Polly Perks disguised herself as a boy to join the army, and keeps her long cut hair in her pack. When it's stolen, she's worried that the thief could use it as evidence. Her friend suggests claiming that it's a memento from a girl back home, to which Polly protests that mementos like that are usually a lock, not a whole head. | |

He asks for one strand of her hair as a token of her legendary beauty and of renewed friendship between elves and dwarves, as she had spoken respectfully of his fallen homeland. She gives him three and warns her fellow elves to never again call dwarves grasping or greedy. | |

Lancelot, the Knight of the Cart: Lancelot is on a quest to find Guinevere. As he's tracking her, he comes upon a place where she combed out her hair. She left behind her comb with a strand of hair still caught in the tines. Lancelot is so overcome with emotion he nearly faints. He picks up the hair and decides — apropos of nothing — that it has panacea properties. The combo of reverence and attributing healing powers to it is reminiscent of the treatment of religious relics, which were big at the time (12th century). By treating her hair like a relic, it implies he regards Guinevere as a saint. | |

The Rape of the Lock, one of the seminal works of English literature, is all about mocking this trope, treating the cutting of a small curl of hair as the most heinous of crimes. (And by the way, the title refers to the old meaning of "rape" as taking something by force, so get your minds out of the gutter.) | |

The Goose Girl revolves around a princess betrothed to a distant land who carries with her a charm from her mother the queen as a safety amulet, only to lose it halfway through her journey and have her servant take advantage of her. Depending on the version, the amulet is either a talisman, a napkin with drops of the queen's blood, or a lock of the queen's hair. | |

Afterward, the boy can only cry and ask why Byakuren won't let him go to her. | |

Tales of Dunk and Egg. In "The Sworn Sword", Lady Rohanne wears her hair in a single long plait which she plays with coquettishly while flirting with Dunk. At the end of the story, after much Belligerent Sexual Tension between them, Dunk refuses her offer of a fine steed but cuts off her plait so he'll have something to remember her by. | |

In Star Trek: Voyager episode "Year of Hell", Annorax had, using time incursions, accidentally made his wife vanish from existence. All he had left of her was a lock of her hair, which he preserves in a stasis container so it won't be effected by his attempts to change the timeline. As his vessel is destroyed, he watches helplessly as the container breaks and the hair vanishes from existence. | |
