Characters have unkempt, shaggy, or unusually long hair, and often beards — usually dark, though it may have gray in it — to show that they are close to nature, possibly the Nature Hero. Often occurs for the Mountain Man. Indicates that the character can handle himself in a wilderness, and such skills as tracking. On the other hand, he is often Better with Non-Human Company. Poor social skills aside, a character sprouting this hairdo tends to be good. Chaotic Good, but heroic nonetheless.
Part of this is that keeping your hair neat and short is a lot easier in civilization than out of it. As a consequence, characters who have spent some time in the wild may come back looking like this (perhaps with a Time-Passage Beard as well), though generally not picking up the character traits. When the hair is long but neat, it's usually a Sailor's Ponytail, indicating merely distance from barbers. When the hair actively fights being made neater, it's Stubborn Hair.
Part of this is to show that they don't think like other people, or care what other people think — like Mad Scientist with his Einstein Hair,
despite the otherwise completely different connotations.
In visual media, usually manages to be still quite attractive.
A Sub-Trope of Messy Hair. Compare and contrast Unkempt Beauty. See also Braids of Barbarism.

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): In this Godzilla MonsterVerse fanfiction, Thor is a Kaiju with a mane of long, shaggy hair who's only recently emerged from hibernation to the modern world, and he has a particularly prominent connection to the Bone Singers and the Old Norse people.

Solid Snake has had it since Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. His hairstyle was mercilessly mocked at first, because of its resemblance to the infamous mullet. It isn't a mullet, but looks like one thanks to Snake tying his bandana over his hair rather than under it.

Harry Potter:
Rufus Scrimgeour is described as having "streaks of gray in his mane of tawny hair" invoking the image of a lion.
Also in Harry Potter, Hagrid was described as having loads and loads of long and wild hair that was thick enough to break combs. Later on, when Hagrid tried to comb his hair, he ended up having broken-off comb teeth tangled in his hair. His attempt to tame it with styling product was an equal failure.
After his escape from Azkaban, Sirius had very long and unkempt hair.
Due to his father's habit, Harry himself is constitutionally incapable of making his hair behave. He unknowingly used this to his advantage when Aunt Petunia gave him a truly horrific haircut and he woke up the next morning with his hair exactly the way it was before. Harry's hair is stubbornly, very likely supernaturally wild. It even defeats Molly Weasley in book 5.

In Attack on Titan, the human form of the Beast Titan is appropriately a man with long hair and a messy beard. He also has a tendency to wander around shirtless. After the Time Skip and his return to Marley, he adopts a more civilized appearance with short hair, a neatly-trimmed beard, and a pristine uniform.

In the Discworld of A.A. Pessimal, Andreas "Barbarossa" Smith-Rhodes, the patriarch of a Badass Family, is a man built overscale whose hair and beard conform to this trope. Normally he farms a large estate on the borders of Rimwards Howondaland, and whose life, normally, does not have room for these niceities. Wife Agnetha says one of the advantages of twice-yearly visits to a son and daughter resident in Ankh-Morpork is that Andreas now has no excuse to avoid visiting a good barbers. He therefore gets a twice-yearly haircut and beard trim normally not available on the Veldt.

Played for laughs in episode one of season three of The Big Bang Theory, where the characters return from their trip to the North Pole. Leonard, Howard, and Raj trudge in the apartment lobby with unkempt hair and full beards that seem to fuse together. Then Sheldon walks in with a neat goatee and mustache and no significant changes to his hair.

Ishikawa from Ghost in the Shell probably has the most magnificent hair and beard ever seen on a Japanese character (possibly from having Ainu among his ancestors). He is actually the main combat technician and codebreaker of the team and the least likely to get into any fighting. However, as member of Section 9 he's still a huge badass.

Age of Heroic Age had long, unkempt hair due to his time alone on a ruined planet, kept company only by a dilapidated ship AI he calls 'mother' and his sentient sand-swimming squid friends. He receives a semi-Important Haircut sometime after arriving to the Argonaut not to help him adjust with people, but to help people stop being scared of him. After all, you'd be afraid of a giant, planet-tearing space monster yourself, right?

In the second act of the musical Spring Awakening, the original Ilse (Lauren Pritchard) had wild hair. Though in modern productions the bob seems to be the new standard for Ilse, most understudies (since it's more practical for them to have long hair so it can be braided for other roles they cover) sport this look in the second act also.

In Steven Universe, this seems to be common for Quartz Gems, and seems to indicate recklessness or aggression. Amethyst and Jasper both have long and wild manes of hair. Rose Quartz subverts this with her Regal Ringlets, which indicate a refined, lady-like temperament instead of the wild aggression of her fellow Quartz Gems. For humans, Greg, both in his youth and in the present day, sported long, unkempt hair that reaches down to his waist (at least before he was forced to cut it short in the Future episode "Bluebird"), which seems to indicate his often laid-back and simple but also wise and sensitive personality.

Something of a running gag on Time Warp Trio was that Sam and many of his family members have wild hair. Sam's is just messy, black blob, his Great Granddaughter, Samantha has hair that is styled in a series of wavy bun-like things across her head (although judging from the background characters in the future episode, weird hair seems to be par for the course in the year 2105 where she hails from, even if the other main protagnist from the future avert this), and Sam's ancestor from Russia has a crazy, unruly beard he used to hide things in and his refusal to shave it almost got him executed.

Princess Merida and Lord Macintosh from Brave. It's representative of the friction between Merida and her very neat & proper mother that sets off the plot.

A Song of Ice and Fire: The wildlings who live beyond the Wall have little patience for the niceties and customs of southron society, and consequently tend to sport tangled and unkempt manes of hair. At one point, Jon muses of the wildling Ygritte only brushes her hair once a season.

Helena from Orphan Black, in contrast to the other clones, sports extremely unkempt blonde hair. She keeps this hairstyle even after her Heel–Face Turn, and bearing in mind the trope description, it could be considered foreshadowing for what kind of person Helena is, which, after her de-brainwashing, is definitely Chaotic Good.

In Manon of the Spring (Manon des Sources), title character Manon spends most of the movie with unkempt, long blonde hair. She hides from the nearby village residents and spends her days alone in the hills, playing a recorder and herding her goats. Despite all this, she is well-educated and enjoys reading, and is known by the villagers that have caught a glimpse of her as being very beautiful.

In Yu-Gi-Oh!, Ryou Bakura and his Yami both sport a long, ruffled mane of shaggy white hair. Bonus points to Yami Bakura for having some serious spiney sharp bangs of doom develop when he takes over. Combine this with high winds atop a speeding train/blimp/ship in a storm and it's like a leathal weapon.

If dreads count, Ronon Dex from Stargate Atlantis fits this trope to a "T". (Not that T, that's the other series.)
Speaking of the other series, the race of Space Amish called The Nox from Stargate SG-1 had hair so wild and unkempt, they even had ferns and leaves in them.

Amphibia has main character Anne. Doesn't matter if she just recently washed or styled it; sooner or latter, it will return to being a messy, brown bush filled with leaves and sticks. Funnily enough, one episode implies that she never actually notices when her hair gets filled with all that debris, with her asking why no one ever told her.

YuYu Hakusho:
Yusuke dramatically and suddenly goes through some serious hairstyle change — from his usual slick-back style to this — during his one-on-one fight against Sensui, with tattoos displaying on his body as well, which also turn up during the hairstyle transformation.
Kurama's hair is like this in both his his human guise and his true form.
Also, Itsuki. Oddly enough, the crazier he seems, the wavier and messier it gets.

Sousuke Sagara from Full Metal Panic!, back when he was a young Guerilla. His hair was very long, and rather unkempt. Definitely to emphasize how he's a wild, violent survivalist that didn't care that much about maintaining a nice haircut. Interestingly enough, he's shown to be the spitting image of his mother when he had long hair. In The Second Raid, he started growing it out again, only to receive an Important Haircut from Kaname.

Bart from Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency has highly unkempt red hair. She is also a remorseless assassin, but arguably qualifies as an Anti-Villain because she has psychic abilities and targets people who hurt others. She still wants to kill the title character, though, for reasons as yet unrevealed.
