After Haruhi leaves for America, she grows her hair out until it reaches its original length, keeping it long throughout college.

Her father, Ryouji 'Ranka' Fujioka, is persistent in his attempts to have Haruhi dress more in more feminine garb, but adores his daughter nonetheless. She often wears simple tee-shirts and Bermuda shorts or a feminine dress coupled with jeans.

Haruhi's appearance outside of school varies. Her biological gender is revealed in the manga just before she leaves to study in America and though most students are initially disbelieving, they quickly accept and embrace the idea. This resemblance is particularly notable when she dresses up as a female during some of the Host Club's schemes and events. Haruhi is sometimes likened to her deceased mother, Kotoko Fujioka. Her natural affinity with people and sweet face cause many people, regardless of gender, to develop a crush on her. Her female clients often comment on her large and shiny brown eyes, likening them to a girl's, the shininess actually caused by contact lenses. With her messily-styled hairdo, large glasses (which once belonged to her grandfather) and masculine clothing, she is assumed to be a boy.Īpart from the few times that she dons a wig during cosplay, Haruhi resembles a cute, short boy with cropped brown hair. Being unable to afford the expensive Ouran uniform, she wears shapeless, baggy clothing. Having gotten gum in her hair just before the school year begins, she cuts it short. When Haruhi is first introduced in the anime, she sports a nerdy, androgynous look that differs greatly from her middle-school appearance. However, upon enrolling at the prestigious school, her image changes drastically. Before Haruhi attends Ouran Academy, she is described as a pretty girl as seen in flashbacks when she had long hair and wore a girl's uniform.
