Information
The Demoman's 'Fro is an unlockable headwear item for the Demoman. It appears as an afro hairstyle with a team-colored headband. The Demoman's 'fro, with its small size and headband, is intended to resemble the afro worn by rock legend Jimi Hendrix[1] rather than the more iconic and oversized 'disco' 'fro.
Trivia
- The Demoman's 'fro is not a hat per se but rather the removal of the gray skullcap hat the Demoman normally wears. Due to the addition of the headband, the 'fro is not categorised as a 'hatless' item.
- The afro hairstyle was a trend in the 60's and 70's, popularised by disco culture and featuring in many blaxploitation films.
- It is also important to note that the Demoman's hair while like this makes him look very close to Samuel L. Jackson's character Jules Winnfield from Pulp Fiction, though with a headband. There are many fan based videos featuring the Demoman as Jules, so this may be a nod to those.
