I have been meaning to do this for a hot minute and these are just personal headcanons of mine. Feel free to agree or disagree with them and I hope you enjoy! :) Matsuda is next!

Plain burger guy
Due to the stress of the Kira investigation and problems with family at home, Aizawa would want an inkling to start or does start a habit of smoking cigarettes to help with the stress. But the second his kids start noticing the smell on his suit is when he quits and to mask the addiction he keeps a toothpick in his mouth and/or chews on it. He has stabbed himself in the mouth more times than he could ever count but its better than the cigarettes.
Listens to every genre of music known to man. He will jam out to Frank Sinatra, Slipknot, Katy Perry, the whole nine yards.
If he wasnt a detective, he would either be in opera, specifically a tenor, (thanks @shujiaihara for this one) or a high school teacher or professor.
More so likely picked up drinking after the timeskip but not anything borderline alcoholic levels.
Likes dark colors.
Will do tea parties with his daughter, no questions asked.
Has mild road rage in traffic. (Credit to @shujiaihara for this one). Nothing extreme but he will definitely cuss you out and shake his fist at you. Its especially worse if his family is in the car with him.
Drinks coffee black.
Not a big sweet tooth. Will enjoy a muffin or cookie every once in a while but nothing like L.
He is muscular under that suit. Not anything crazy but he definitely tries to work out in his free time.
Number One Nap King. Will pass out during breaks or if its slow just from leaning back in his chair.
Grows his afro back after the Kira case is done since he has extra time to take care of it.
Is allergic to dogs. (Credit to @kiyomitakada for this one and thank you @aizawashuichi for looking!!) that if his kids want a dog he will get them a dog. It just consists of just stuffy nose and sneezing nothing death worthy
Despite his annoyance towards him, Aizawa would genuinely care and want the best for Matsuda. Babysitting privileges, perhaps? 👀
He tosses and turns most nights when trying to sleep
Despite being stressed about the case and work, he is good about not 'bringing work back home' and can seperate work and home life.
Book worm. He loves to read. Specifically imagining him after a long day and he is chilling in bed with a lamp on, reading glasses with a book open.
Going off from previous one, I feel like his sight gets worse as he gets older so he has to get reading glasses. (Does anyone else imagine this or am I crazy?)
He would like outdoor hobbies, fishing, hiking etc., to help him empty his head and clear his mind due to work.
Likes the sound of rain and thunderstorms
Despite the stress from work, he doesnt grey out early. He just has that great of genes.
Beach day? Hell yeah. Boat day? Hell yeah. He would be the one to drive the boat and would not let anyone else do it. (Despite Matsuda's relentlessly begging to do so)
Kind of involves everyone but I truly believe after the Kira case and everything goes back to mostly normal they all get together once a month for an outing with their families. They have all been through a hell lot so its only natural for them to do that. (I honestly may do a beach day headcanons for all of them)
Scotch and whiskey drinker
60s Toyota Crown as his daily
Car guy!! Aizawa would know every make and model out there to ever exist and loves working on vehicles and just learning about vehicles.
Going from the previous one, I feel like when he retires from the force he would work and restore vehicles on his spare time.
Would apologize for his outbursts
Best dad ever. He would do anything for his kids.
Can't stand fast food. Despite everything he does try to maintain a healthy diet.
In Canon he is 6'0 but honestly would be 6'3.
Intimidating as hell to any newcomers and is rough around the edges at first but comes around and is easy on the newcomers when he realizes they are serious about their job
Periodically checks in on Matsuda, especially after Light
