One Piece has a plethora of characters, and almost every single one has its own fanbase. The popularity of these characters is a result of Oda’s hard work and dedication. Oda has put in extra effort to ensure that the characters in One Piece stand out in their unique ways.
Aside from giving them interesting personalities, Oda has also given them incredible designs, which include their clothes, tattoos, and hair. When it comes to hair and hairstyles, Oda has created some of the most spectacular designs, which never fail to capture the attention of the fans. With that in mind, here are some One Piece characters who have the most striking hair.
8 Franky
Franky is the shipwright of the Straw Hat Pirates. He joined the crew after defeating CP9 at Enies Lobby, and since then he has played a crucial role in their overall success. Aside from being a talented shipwright, Franky is also an apt fighter and inventor.
Franky is part cyborg, and he has modified many parts of his body. Franky is one of the few Straw Hats who change their clothes and hairstyle after every arc. So far, his hair has taken the shape of a cannon, a beetle’s horns, two pigtails, and many others.
7 Kumadori
Kumadori was an assassin working for CP9. He was introduced in the Enies Lobby arc, where he fought against Chopper. Kumadori towered over the likes of Nami, and his superhuman strength made it impossible for a normal human to hurt him.
As a member of CP9, Kumadori was able to use all six Rokushiki techniques. He was also able to use Seimei Kikan, which allowed him to manipulate his luscious pink hair. Kumadori’s ability to use his hair as a weapon is truly unique, and it makes both him and his hair spectacular.
6 Brook
Brook is one of the main characters in the series. He was found by Luffy and his crew on their way to Thriller Bark. Brook is not an ordinary person, having already died once. He was resurrected by the power of his Yomi Yomi no Mi.
While he was revived, Brook lost his skin and muscles. He only retained the bones and his fantastic afro. Brook is obviously very proud of his hair, and considering how marvelous it looks, one can hardly blame him. When Luffy met him for the first time, he was so amused by Brook’s appearance that he asked him to join the Straw Hats.
5 Nami
Nami is one of the five original members of the Straw Hat Pirates. Before becoming a pirate, Nami was a thief who stole treasure in order to help out the people of her village. Nami went through a lot of problems, but it is fair to say that she found her home on the Going Merry.
Nami has a good taste in fashion, which is reflected in her choice of clothes. Nami has gorgeous orange hair, and she has changed her hairstyle multiple times throughout the story. At the beginning of the series, she kept her hair short, but with time, she let it grow. Currently, Nami’s hair is nearly at her waist.
4 Shoujou
Shoujou made his debut in the Jaya arc. He is the sworn brother of Masira and a follower of Mont Blanc Cricket. Shoujou has a very caring personality, and he was willing to go to great lengths to ensure that no harm came to Masira and Cricket.
In his limited screen time, Shoujou managed to captivate the audience with his personality and his extremely long green hair. Shoujou hasn’t cut his hair in 25 years, which is why it is almost the length of his body. With such voluminous hair, it’s no wonder he stands out so much.
3 Luffy
From a very young age, Luffy dreamed of becoming the Pirate King. He was inspired by Shanks, and once he was 16 years old, Luffy began his voyage. Needless to say, Luffy has grown a lot, and his strength has monumentally increased.
Luffy’s hairstyle has stayed the same in almost all the arcs, which makes it unappealing. However, in the Long Ring Long Island arc, he adapted an afro. The style has become iconic, and many fans consider it to be Luffy’s best look. There is still some time left before the series ends, so fans will be hoping that Afro Luffy makes a return.
2 Shanks
Shanks is the captain of the Red Hair Pirates and one of the Yonko. He has access to all three types of Haki, and it is fair to say that he has successfully mastered them all. Shanks has been involved in many crucial events in the series, and his influence will only continue to grow in the final saga.
Shanks is an iconic character, and he is easily identifiable by his bright red hair. His hair is nicely parted in the middle, and it gives him a clean appearance. Due to being so easily recognizable, Shanks’ hair influenced the name of his pirate crew, and it led to them being called Red Hair Pirates.
1 Silvers Rayleigh
Silvers Rayleigh was the right-hand man of the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger. Despite being over 70 years old, Rayleigh has shown that he can go head-to-head with a Navy Admiral. Suffice it to say, he would have been on a different level in his younger days.
When he was still a part of the Roger Pirates, Rayleigh had short, blonde hair, but with age, his hair became whiter, and he grew it out. The white hair gives him a mature look, and it makes him stand out from the other characters in the series.
