My Murderface Hair Headcanon
Since we were talking about it today, felt like a good excuse to finally explain mine! This has always been very certain in my mind, so I was surprised when I didn’t see much of it in the fandom.
Basically, my MF hair HC is a combination of two things:
First, that he has a curl texture, and either does not know, or does not know how to take care of it. There’s been another resurgence of the Curly Girl Method, and with that, you can watch many people discover their hair texture! You can look to ‘before and afters’ of this to see how many people, who do not have knowledge about curls, just come to the assumption that they have frizzy, coarse, and wavy hair.
I think if his hair was well cared for, he would probably have a 3A texture. I’ve heard many stories of kids who grew up with their hair being “brushed until it was straight” before they could go to school. The tighter the curl, the frizzier and bigger that’ll make your hair. White people are often taught to dry brush as well, and with Murderface already having bad hygiene, I imagine there’s a lot of damage going on here.
So, that’s my second key point! Not just the curl texture, but that we’re looking at a brushed out curl pattern. Here’s some brushed out curl pictures.
Along with my personal favorite…
Check out that shape! Imagine that, but shoulder length, with bangs. This image seems to be well-kept curly hair that was brushed out for fun, but imagine much more broken and dry, and you can see how it would become quite unrecognizable and untameable.
