The tuft of fur or feathers can take the form of a cowlick, a feather crest, a stylish curl, or a shock that sticks out as well as a simple tuft. The tuft can either be small, medium, or large. The tuft is most frequently placed on the top of the head, but it can also be placed on the back of the head. A majority of head tufts on fictional animals point toward the forehead and face, but some can point away from the face and grow more with the general fur or feather growth.
