The high price of holy hair |
"It's no longer enough to wear pricey hair extensions made from human rather than synthetic hair - the latest must-have tresses come from virgins who shave their heads in a traditional Hindu ceremony on the other side of the globe. Stars including Halle Berry, Victoria Beckham, Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Lopez reportedly wear the "temple hair." Remarkably, these women don't receive a dime for their trouble - the money goes directly to the shrine. The demand for temple hair has now spread to New York City hair salons, where clients spend an average of $3,000 on the extensions - enough to feed a poor family in India for six months." |
But of course the money goes directly to the shrine. Judeo/Christians aren't the only worshipers whose deity is forever broke. Now, can you imagine what Nun-Extensions would bring on the open market?
