An Introduction:
Throughout the Dragonball manga, Toriyama is constantly changing the hairstyles of his characters
(some more than others). In our ever growing effort to bring you original content, we have created a
reference to document these ever-changing hairstyles.
How This Section Works:
Its quite simple actually. Follow the links above (or just scroll down). You'll find a picture of nearly
every hairstyle (that changes) in Dragonball, followed by the volume and chapter in which that
hairstyle first appears. Whenever we felt it was appropriate, we have injected a (sometimes
humorous) comment below the volume/chapter data.
I put Volume and Chapter numbers below each picture, which SHOULD be a dead
giveaway that this section deals with the MANGA ONLY
Bulma:
Being the sexy, stylish woman that she is, Bulma changes her hairstyle constantly throughout
Dragonball. In fact, she changes her hairstyle 16 different times, bringing her style count to a grant
total of 17 (this contradicts the commonly held fact that she goes through 15 hairstyle changes and
16 total hairstyles). Once again, we dug through volumes of manga to verify the information
contained in the Daizenshu (which we found to be wrong on several occasions this time).
Saiya-jins:
A purebred Saiya-jin's hair will always retain its natural "pointy" look and a constant length, unless
the Saiya-jin cuts his/her hair (Goku is a good example of this, as his hairstyle never changes). Half
and quarter Saiya-jins have much more natural hair, and will only retain the natural "pointy" look of a
purebred Saiya-jin if it is specifically styled to do so (Goten is a good example of this, as his
hairstyle retains the natural Saiya-jin look until he lets it grow out in his teenage years).
Vegeta:
No, Vegeta does not change his hairstyle. When he first appears in the Dragonball manga, his upper
body is very short in comparison to the rest of his body (as seen here). Later in the manga, he is
drawn a bit taller, and with a much more proportioned anatomy (as seen here). However, as Akira
Toriyama began to draw Vegeta taller, he did not make his hair longer. Hence, this gives the
perception that his hair is cut shorter later in the Dragonball manga. |
