Robots are curious beings. They may vary in lifestyle, behavior, design, intelligence... even gender. Indeed, they come in a myriad of forms. But a particularly curious thing about them, humanoid ones in particular, is that no matter where they come from, no matter how they appear, they may have some form of a trait found most commonly on mammals. By which we mean... hair. The hair in question could be a wig made to resemble normal human hair (or at least attempt to) or it could just be a series of mechanical parts (functional or not) which resemble a hairstyle. Either way, (as with Alien Hair and Non-Mammalian Hair), the main purpose of this trope is to show the audience a humanlike robot either by making it seem more human (since hair on the head is a very specifically human trait, especially for entities that are meant to appear female), or by emphasising a more human-like robot's mechanical nature (by making the "hair" look stiff and unnatural or having an Implausible Hair Color). A variation of the latter often appears in theatre and low budget live-action movies with android characters; the actor's hair is fixed with hairspray and a combination of careful trimming and makeup is applied around the hairline (so there's a clear line) to make it look synthetic. Only list animal examples which clearly have parts designed to resemble a particular feature, like a mane. Cyborgs also count, but only list examples with hair that is actually synthetic (rather than their original hair). Robots and cyborgs who are indistinguishable from normal humans shouldn't be listed unless their hair fits the "makes them look artificial" variation. Humongous Mecha which have styles resembling their pilots' also merit a mention. A common feature of any Fembot (for which it can serve as Tertiary Sexual Characteristics) and more or less mandatory for a Robot Girl, although masculine robots are not exempt. A Robot Me will have this trope by necessity (unless it's a copy of someone bald, of course). Naturally, other Hair Tropes can be applied to the "hair". Compare Weird Beard and Sci-Fi Bob Haircut. Sister trope to Robot Antennae. |

In Mass Effect 3, EDI's robot body sports a bob made out of steel. When it was masquerading as Dr. Eva Core, is was most likely made out of synthetic fibers that were burned away in the explosion. Notably, while it looks solid, it can be switched to a mass of hair-like fibres, making it both variations of the trope at once. | |

In the Doctor Who story "The Robots of Death", the robots have hair that resembles wavy, combed-back male hair with a widow's peak, as a solid block as part of the stylized head. (The general aesthetic of the robots is Raygun Gothic and they borrow heavily from art deco sculpture.) Notable in that when Taren Capel reveals his identity to the Doctor, he has actually waved and styled his hair in such a way as to resemble the robot hair. | |

Ambassador Magma: Magma/Goldar is a "living giant" forged from gold with long gold hair. His normal-sized, human-looking wife and son are also behaired, but it's less unusual on them. | |

Chachamaru of Negima! Magister Negi Magi has hair which is pastel green. It's a synthetic material which functions as her heat sink, but only the color visually distinguishes it from normal hair. Because it is her heat sink, though, she can't tie it up in alternate hairstyles, since that would interfere with the heat dissipation. | |

In the Family Guy Star Wars parodies, Cleveland "plays" R2-D2 by having an afro on the robot. The hair doesn't seem robotic, it's just a wig stuck on top. | |

Most reploids from the Mega Man series (although the eponymous character hides his under his helmet most of the time). Mega Man ZX justifies the trope by explicitly saying it was an attempt to "making humans and reploids closer to each other to make better peace": Most famously, Zero's long blonde ponytail from Mega Man X. Roll sports golden locks neatly tied up with a ribbon, whereas Plum (from Rockman Battle & Chase) has pink hair. Mega Man Zero has Elpizo (blond), Omega (a pinkish/fuchsia ponytail sprouting out from the top of his helmet), and Kraft (dark spiky hair which appears to also form Go Nagai Sideburns), among others. Seeing as Omega's body is a shell/Power Limiter for Zero's original body, this means that Omega also shares Zero's infamous long hair. Mega Man ZX: Promotheus and Pandora, the former of whom actually utilizes it in battle. This is more easily noticeable when the player sees a glimpse of the siblings in the past (as detailed by Master Albert's Cipher report) until they were permanently fused to a piece Model W and stuck in their Megamerged states. Reploids Girouette, Prairie (heavily implied to be Alouette from Mega Man Zero), Serpent, Grey, Thetis, and Siarnaq also sport human-like hair. Splash Woman (from Mega Man 9) and Fairy Leviathan fall into the "Mechanical Facsimile" category: their helmets frame their faces in a manner that resembles hair (specifically, a Sci-Fi Bob Haircut, with a few extra bangs in front in Leviathan's case). Proto Man has oddly-styled hair under his helmet. |

In the Mega Man (Archie Comics) series, Doctor Light calms down a distraught Mega Man, in a conversation that is almost a word-for-word quote from the refrain of The Megas song The Message from Doctor Light, which includes a reference to Rock's hair. | |

OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes has multiple robot characters. Some of them have hair: Shannon has a head shaped like a turned-up hairstyle. Raymond's pompadour appears to be realistic hair. Under his top hat, Ernesto has a combover. |

Transformers: Arcee, the go-to Fembot, generally has a helmet-like structure on her head which resembles Princess Leia's famous hair buns. Windblade has hair resembling a geisha's, complete with a large "hair clip". Elita One used to have a ponytail-like shape on her helm in her past identity as Ariel. Solus Prime, one of the Thirteen, has a long mass of metal hair-like appendages coming out of her head. Rarely, Transformers can have facial hair, sometimes as an indicator of old age or evilness. In The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye, Minimus Ambus goes so far as to have his intermediate armour, which puts him up to the size of someone like Rodimus, wear a fake moustache to mimic the real one on his inner body. At one point a panicking Nautica hits him with her wrench and it comes off. |

A one-off gag in an episode of Dexter's Laboratory shows an electrician snipping a few frayed wires sticking out of a robot's head, which have been styled into an elaborate hairdo. The robot appreciates the "haircut". | |

Full Metal Panic!: Several Lambda Driver-equipped Arm Slaves have long flowing hair which actually serves as heat sink for the Driver. This includes Gauron's Codarl and Sosuke's final upgrade, the Laevatein. | |

Some of the generic robot citizens in Happy Heroes have full heads of hair. In addition, Season 5 episode 4 is about them experiencing rapid facial hair growth after Big M. mixes a facial hair-growing formula into a lotion. | |

Star Trek: The Next Generation has Data, and his brothers, who are androids designed to be superficially similar to human beings in many ways. Their hair is made to look artificial by heavy application of gel, and keeping Brent Spiner's hairline sharply trimmed. | |
