'''Hot Head''' is a common enemy in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]] who first appeared ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''. In every main-series game that he appears in, Hot Head gives [[Kirby]] the [[Fire]] [[Copy Ability]] when inhaled.

Hot Head is usually depicted as being orange-red, but is also found in other colors. He is about as tall as Kirby, and his physique consists of a main head-body with two stubby feet and no arms. His mouth is funnel-shaped, similar to octopus-like enemies such as [[Flotzo]]. He has a bright orange mane which often flickers like fire, making his incendiary nature fairly easy to recognize.

Hot Head appears as a somewhat uncommon enemy in this game, first appearing in [[Red Volcano]]. He spews a long-held cone of flame in front of him to block Kirby's path, though this can be blocked using the [[Rainbow Line|Rainbow Rope]]. Given the nature of this game, this is Hot Head's only appearance where he cannot provide a [[Copy Ability]].

Hot Head returns as an enemy in ''[[Kirby and the Forgotten Land]]''. Alongside his traditional attacks of breathing a continuous cone of fire and shooting a fire ball from his snout, he can now also breathe fire in a circle around him and fire three fire balls at different angles. His design has been subtly changed from his appearance in ''Kirby: Planet Robobot'', now having slightly smaller irises set in larger eyes. His cheeks are no longer puffed out, as well. He also appears as a [[figure]], though it lacks a description.
