Today's Focus: Coifed Hairdos- and their ability to make or break a person

Hector, Hairdresser to the Stars
On top is a publicity photo of Hector and one of the stars from the 70's cult classic movie, Planet of the Apes. Not quite sure what the point of this picture is..oh yeah, I remember now. Doesn't it seem like Hector's trying a little too hard to look like Warren Beatty in the movie Shampoo? And look at how he's manhandling that ape woman with his Goody brand barbers' comb? Who does he think he is?? Hector, Hairdresser to the Stars...that's who.


And on the bottom is a campaign photo from the widely publicized trial of 1987, Lori Hawke VS. The Barbizon School of Modeling. Although Hawke ultimately lost the suit, she was heralded by advocacy groups throughout the country as a champion for teenage girls' in their plight for claiming their personal identity through her unflinching willlingness to show herself modeling really bad hairdos in an effort to dissuade impressionable young girls from entering into the vaccuous and soulsucking world of modeling.

You're a winner in my eyes Lori...kuddos to you, kiddo!
