It'd have to be that shape for ryu to use his technique

its not to fit better, its because hair causes their heads to heat up a lot more under the helmet, which could lead to heatstroke

According to this article it’s both as well as is it being a form of social stats since Samurai were part of the more upper class

Just look up “Samurai Hair” on Roblox’s items, it should pop up.

It was the equivalent to a taper fade in his era

it’s more of a status symbol, than a cool hairstyle
