It seems that to properly convey that your male character is an Absent-Minded Professor or a Mad Scientist in fiction, you only need one thing: give him Einstein-esque hair. Bonus points if you go for the complete look. Additional bonus points if he uses a Van de Graaff generator or a Tesla coil instead of combing. And it actually makes sense given that: * Albert Einstein was both an Absent-Minded Professor and a scientist (mad or not, it is open to interpretation). * He is one of the most (if not the most) famous scientist in history. * His hairstyle was really... idiosyncratic.

Contrast Wild Hair, which also indicates indifference to society's opinion, but otherwise has quite different connotations. Sub-Trope of Messy Hair. Compare Labcoat of Science and Medicine. See also Memetic Hair, which this style can be an example of. Examples of Einstein Hair include:
