Undertale Hair-Canons:
Undertale Sans: Typically a jokester with her hair and will make stupid mustaches with it in front of where his upper lip would be; doesn’t mind brushing it out for her every once in awhile, secretly wishes she would let him do it more often; thinks that her hair is even softer than his hoodie, but will never admit it to anyone; favorite style: loose waves/natural - keep it simple for her and easier for him to play with
Undertale Papyrus: Always enthusiastic about playing with her hair; likes to style it in fancy braids and such and will look up tutorials to add to his knowledge of hairstyling; fairly proficient at styling hair; will not hesitate to spruce up any style she’s already done with a colorful hair bow or other accessory; favorite style: French braid with an orange ribbon tied at the end - likes the simplicity of it so they can both create this look at any time
Underfell Sans: Acts like he hates messing with her hair in public/won’t touch it; secretly adores the way it feels through his phalanges; often strokes her hair when he isn’t thinking about it (ie: watching a movie or sitting on the couch with his phone); favorite style: low bun - says it keeps her looking smart but also leaves access for him to her hair
Underfell Papyrus: Makes sure her hair is presentable at all times, though in a gruff manner; refuses to let her brush her hair on her own for any reason, he has to do it, even if she’s already done it; chooses specific shampoos for her that he won’t admit he bought even though she knows it’s him; favorite style: high ponytail with fringing locks - claims it is both practical and sexy, though he would never say that around anyone but her
Underswap Sans: Tries really hard to style her hair, mostly ends up tangling it; always willing to run his phalanges through it and prefers to do so without gloves; hates it when she comes over with her hair in a style he doesn’t like (ie: French/Dutch braid); loves to take her hair and twirl it through his phalanges; favorite style: pigtail braids - thinks she looks the most adorable with it
Underswap Papyrus: Content to simply run his phalanges through her hair most days; always makes sure to scratch her scalp because he knows she likes it; buys honey scented shampoo simply to have an excuse to smell her hair and make puns out of it; favorite style: loose side ponytail - prevents her from smacking him in the face with it if she turns too quickly, which happens more than either care to admit
Swapfell Sans: Demands that she brush her hair a certain way, then pretends to be unsatisfied so he has an excuse to do it himself; likes to make small braids, but never lets her leave them in from embarrassment; can’t sleep at night unless he has his phalanges wound carefully into her hair; favorite style: straightened - thinks it makes her look incredibly tough, but with the sweet side just underneath
Swapfell Papyrus: Doesn’t play with her hair all too much but will steal a sniff of her shampoo every chance he gets, very good at doing so sneakily in public; playing with her hair is soothing but also a game to him; loves to tickle her face with the ends of her own hair, just to get her to laugh; favorite style: curls - thinks it’s fun to pull on them and let them spring back because she gets agitated easily by it
Horrortale Sans: doesn’t have too much fascination with her hair, but rather with how it smells; will play with it if asked, but doesn’t do it on his own because he fears the nicks in his bones will snag; is definitely willing to gently tug on it to get her attention, but only if absolutely necessary; favorite style: low ponytail - keeps it out of her face and is easier to grab if he needs her to pay attention to something
Horrortale Papyrus: Always a little reluctant to do anything with her hair out of fear of harming her; will play with her hair loosely, seeing how it falls over her shoulders and such; often just runs his phalanges over her hair to enjoy the texture on his bones; wants her to cut it shorter sometimes so that it’s harder for others to grab; favorite style: high bun - thinks it is both a classy look and allows him to tap the top of her head without injury
