ahoge
アホ毛, literally, "stupid hair". A single (usually short and fat) lock of hair that sticks out of a character's head.
Add expressive hair if the ahoge changes shape due to a character's emotion or state.
- Use cowlick instead if it's small and less stylized.
- Use antenna hair instead if there's two or more thin locks of hair as opposed to only one.
- NOT to be confused with ahegao.
