Draco Malfoy
Draco is Latin for dragon, ultimately the ancient Greek drakōn, meaning serpent. The first part, mal, should be easily recognised as meaning evil or bad. It shows up in English in such words as malevolent, malicious or malign, and comes from the Latin adjective “malus” meaning evil or bad.
Blond hair is usually associated with sometimes a character being innocent in a film but usually the character is generally a dehumanized antagonist or a villain, I think this could almost be to do with the Nazi's. In Malfoy’s case it makes him look Sly, Strange, Aryan, Formal, Cunning, Deceitful, Clever, Noble, Villian and Smart. His slicked back hair signifies to the audience that he is Slippery like a snake/dragon so on the bad side in the case of Harry Potter. As his house is Slytherin this would make sense.I think the audience subconsciously pick this up and it seems to make sense to them.He look's like this because the director wants the audience to know that he is the villain as soon as he gets in shot.
Snape is a mysterious character that keep's the audience guessing if he's Good or Bad. His first appearance makes him look particularly evil with his dark looks his Robes,Hair and physical looks (Pallid and sallow) . He is a very talented man who specializes in potions and is extremely capable in duelling. His on Screen character is calm and silent but really he is insecure and unhappy.
