When uploading images in the past, I had used the hair_over_eye tag to denote when a character has hair over their eye.
However, looking at the wiki entry for the hair_over_eye tag, this appears to be an incorrect usage of the tag.

Used when a character's hair is covering one section (usually half) of their face, in such a way that one eye is hidden.

• Not to be confused with hair_over_eyes.

As an example, post #3908447 is one of the images that I incorrectly tagged with hair_over_eye, as the hair does not fully hide the eye nor does it obscure the majority of the eye.
I was going to simply remove the tag, but I was recommended to keep the tag for now until a better one was created for it.

Should a tag be created for hair that only barely or partially covers the eye, but doesn't fully hide or largely obscure it? e.g. barely_covered_eye, partially_covered_eye, etc.

I think it exists - i.e. some Harry Potter type tag for his scar. There's an opposite one, too, where the eye/eyebrow/eyelash is somehow seen THROUGH the hair.

Results so far. I think you want hair_over_eye? Derp, right. You mentioned that. :(
hair_in_face This seems very close... Hair hanging down, combed_down, etc. might already exist, for related tags.

combover is the opposite.
