Does this Euboia coin look genuine? Do you think the style is correct? Thanks!

Why do you suspect it?  Please read the rules.  We just do not authenticate coins, but rather discuss coins that are subject to suspicion for a definite reason.  Otherwise we would be endlessly engaged in trying to deal with every coin in the world.

Sorry, it would be the style, especially the hair.

There are many styles for these.  The hair does look a little odd, but I have seen odder that were certainly real.
