Hair Puns

Welcome to the Punpedia entry on hair puns! ✂️ 👩🏻 ✨

Our hair puns have to be seen to be be-weaved. Rest a-sheared that no matter the hairstyle or pun you’re into, our pun list is a cut above the rest! We have puns ranging from general hair terms to styling materials to technical classifications of hair texture. Comb on in and enjoy!

While this list is as comprehensive as possible, it is specific to hair. We have included some facial hair puns too, but not a whole lot as we have a separate beard pun list on the way.

Cocoa Puns

Welcome to the Punpedia entry on cocoa puns! 🍫 ☕ 🌱

We’ve bean waiting for you with our list of smooth cocoa puns. Whether your humour is bitter or sweet, we hope to have you covered with our puns that range from general cocoa-related words (like bean and candy) to more technical terms (like conching and temper).

If you’re interested in related lists, we also have Easter puns, chocolate puns and baking puns.

A quick note that cocoa production involves the widespread use of child labour, many of whom were trafficked and work as slaves. Initiatives like fair trade seek to remedy this, so if you’re buying chocolate, look for those fair trade stickers and vegan labelling 🙂
