10 Long-haired WWE Superstars and what they look like with short hair

#4 Triple H (WWE NXT Founder)

Triple H changed his appearance in 2012

Triple H had long hair for his whole WWE career until he opted for a short-haired look in September 2012. Since then, the WWE NXT founder has gone one step further by switching to a shaven-headed look, even though he is still capable of growing a full head of hair.

He explained on WHEB-FM's The Morning Buzz in 2013 that he got rid of his famous locks because, as he was no longer a full-time WWE in-ring talent, he did not need to walk around a corporate environment with long hair.

“It just got to be such a pain that for the last year and a half I've been dying to cut it off. It just started to become the bane of my existence, my hair every day, and I never wore it down; I just couldn't wait for the time when I could finally get rid of it.” [H/T Wrestling Inc.]

#3 AJ Styles (WWE SmackDown)

AJ Styles grew his hair out in 2016

Although AJ Styles has grown long hair during his time in WWE, “The Phenomenal One” had short hair for many of his years in IMPACT Wrestling.

After joining WWE, Styles explained to Rolling Stone that he changed to a long-haired, dry look because nobody else in wrestling looked like that at the time.

“This is 100 percent the reason why: because everyone else does it [has short hair or long, wet hair]. A lot of times when someone else is doing something I'll stay as far away possible from that. Everything I do I want to be AJ Styles. When you see a guy come out with dry, long hair, I want you to be like, ‘Hey, that reminds me of AJ Styles.’ That's what I want.”
