Nagi Noda, Pop Artist, Passes Away

Japanese pop artist and accomplished commercial director Nagi Noda has recently passed away. You might be wondering why we’d be posting this on a hair extension blog, but one of her most recent commercial projects was for “Hair Hats” and the work is absolutely stunning. Take a look:

Hair? “Married but Miserable”

September 26, 2008

Three weeks ago my wife came and asked me if it would be cool to spend $600.00. I normally wouldn't even ask for what and just give it. This time I chose to ask. The response was that she wanted to get hair extensions. I'm all for her feeling great about herself and looking good, but felt like busting some chops. I said HELL NO!!!

For the next week it was like world war three in the house. She would blow up at the slightest things. I knew it couldn't be her period, that was the week before. The following week, she came to me and asked if she could have $600.00. I knew what it was for, but I still felt like busting some chops. I asked what for, and said HELL NO!!! This time the shit really hit tLhe fan. Being the ass that I am, this had become more of a game for me. It wasn't about the money, but more about the reaction I was getting from her. Mid week, after non stop nagging I gave in.

The next day I came home from work around eight to find her with hair down to her ass. The first thing that she said was "it's getting cut tomorrow". I said I liked it, and left it at that. The next day it was cut and to my surprise, my beautiful wife looked like Joe Dirt. She had a blond mullet!!! It looked horrible. I didn't know what to say, or how to say it without hurting her feelings. So I did the only thing that any married man should do. I told her it looked nice and went to bed. I know that I will burn in hell for this, but I also know that it was the only way I would get some sleep without a crying wife.

The next day realizing she looked like an idiot, and I assume her sister said something as well. We wound up paying for a second hair cut that week. She came home and looked stunning. For the first time with all this hair stuff I felt like it was worth spending the money. She felt great, I felt great. I thought that this is where the story would end. Unfortunately it does not.

A week goes by which brings us to today. I wake up this morning and find my wife getting ready. Her job is as a home maker. Yes the job is hard work and I love her to death for dedicating her life to our kids. Unfortunately this does not require her to get dressed at seven in the morning. I say good morning, and then ask where she is going. She proceeds to tell me she is going to the salon to fix her hair. Not looking to start the day off on the wrong foot, I bit my lip and got ready for work. When I returned from work, My beautiful wife looked different. I wasn't sure what she had done with her hair. We sat and had dinner. I was still confused, until I ran my hands through her hair and realized that she had the extensions taken out. What the F@#%!!! I lost my mind. I was not sure what to say or do. So looking to have some nice sleep, I went to bed without all the drama.

I JUST DON'T GET IT????

Ivan Zoot Smashes Three Guinness Hair Records in Record Time

Ivan Zoot, Director of Education and Training at Andis Company, decided he wanted to raise some money for charity, and break a few records in the process. In just 24 hours, Zoot managed to provide a top rate hair cut to 340 patrons. The previous record stood at 300. Zoot was under the close scrutiny of Guinness judges and was not able to simply sheer heads. He had to perform complete haircuts with approval.

Zoot also managed to break two other records - the fastest haircut, in which he clocked in at 55 seconds, as well as the most haircuts in one hour - which had stood at 23. Zoot destroyed this record, giving 34 haircuts in his fastest hour. “These incredible results show that the Andis revolution cutting system, perfected over ten years, is superior for improving haircutting efficiency,” says Zoot.

Children with Hair Loss and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Texas are the recipients of the charitable funds earned during this event.

Hair Extension Addicts turn to Theft? Yikes.

Some habits are hard to break. We’ve posted here many times stating the importance of giving your scalp a break between visits to the extension salon - but we never thought we’d see such silly antics over $40 worth of hair extensions from a local beauty supply store.

According to the Dallas News, three unidentified woman entered Wigs and Beauty Supply in the 5700 block of Lovell Avenue on Monday afternoon, September 22nd. One woman headed to the back of the store and another woman, according to the assulted store owner, seemed to function as a sort of lookout at the front. A third woman walked along the wig aisles.

The 47-year-old store owner watched the third woman take items off the shelf and put them in a tan bag, police said. When the owner confronted the woman, she opened her bag to reveal hair extensions and a wig worth about $40.

When he told her to put the items back, she grabbed him by the throat and pushed him against a wall. She reached into her waistband as if she had a weapon, police said.

One of the other women yelled, “Mom, let’s go!”

Wow. I’d thought I’d heard it all - but it looks like the cops will be dealing with a new set of addicts who’ll do anything for $40 worth of hair extensions.
