Ranking the Cast by Their Hair 

Ranking ‘The Walking Dead’ Cast By Their Hair

Killing zombies is hairy business, especially when we’re talking about the hairy heroes of “The Walking Dead.”

Really, the only thing the “Walking Dead” survivors are better at than killing walkers is having awesome, awesome hair. Well… for the most part.

Here’s every main “Walking Dead” cast member currently alive on the show, ranked in order of hairy greatness.

That red dye job is fooling approximately no one, Sergeant Ford.

His long hair and cowboy hat combo is adolescent awkwardness in a nutshell.

Too long. Could get caught on something. (See: fences, zombies, lollipop-wielding psycho cops.)

Scores points for originality and confidence. Who else is brave enough to wear pigtails in the zombie apocalypse? Probably bad in terms of functionality, for the same reasons as Beth’s hair.

Long hair looks better than short hair on our favorite former pizza delivery boy, but we miss the baseball cap.

Pulled back ponytail is a good look on Tyreese’s sister, and gives her the look of a battle-ready warrior. Approved!

Really, everything about Maggie is basically the best.

Like Tyreese, Rick scores big points for the beard, but the shaggy hair is a much improved look over his clean-cut season one days.

Total ninja warrior goddess hair. The fact that Danai Gurira is wearing a wig does not make it any less awesome.

As Carol becomes increasingly more badass with each passing episode, so too does her hair.

Likes pizza, punch and pie. Dislikes the Chitauri.
