The bulk update request #11541 is pending approval.

create alias foolish_hair (0) -> ahoge (12470)
create alias idiot_hair (0) -> ahoge (12470)

Reason: Not be confused with ahegao.

ahoge is a transliteration for foolish hair, more commonly known as idiot hair. This is reflected in the tag count: foolish_hair has never been tagged, while idiot_hair has a handful of instances. This BUR aliases the commonly accepted translations to the transliteration to hopefully guide users who are only familiar with the translations to the term.

Since nobody's used foolish_hair, I'm confused why it should follow suit then. Is it a term people use elsewhere to mean the same thing?
Also, for my own curiosity, how much of a difference is there between this and cowlick, visually?
Dumb question, but maybe ahoge could imply cowlick since they partially share definition
