Intrinsically stable or `fundamental' solitons may be decorated with conserved charges which are pieces of those carried by elementary particles in the same medium. These `hairs' are always significant in principle, and in the strong-coupling regime (where solitons and particles exchange roles) may become major factors in dynamics.
