Human '''hair''' can be cut and arranged in a variety of [[style]]s, and in [[modern]] times is done so almost exclusively for aesthetic purposes. However, [[medieval]] hairstyles (including male facial hair) varied greatly, depending on [[culture]] and time [[period]]. Identifying hairstyles remains one of the best methods for roughly dating statuary and other visual art. Certain hairstyles are more-or-less unique to certain cultures, such as the [[11th century]] [[Norman]] practice of shaving the back of the head.

			Some hairstyles were based on [[gender]], and in much of medieval [[Europe]] it was considered immodest for a woman to have her hair exposed or unbound. [[Troubadour]]s, for example, made much of a lady's unbound hair as an incitement to passion. Other hairstyles were influenced by [[religion]]. A [[monk]]'s ''tonsure'' (shaving only the top of the head) was a clearly identifiable mark of his vows. Under their wimples, [[nun]]s had extremely short hair as a sign of modesty, especially for the [[medieval]] period.

			Hair itself can cause serious [[health]] concerns if not maintained properly, especially has it can harbour [[vermin]] such as [[lice]] or [[flea]]s. [[Disease]]d people sometimes had their heads shaved in an attempt to control sickness. Unwashed hair which is allowed to grow will often form thick matted coils known as dreadlocks (modern dreadlocks achieve this look through cosmetic effort rather than dirt and oil).
