Hot enough for ya? The NY Times has a cheap, easy solution for cooling off: the heat wave haircut! The paper calls summer "scalping season" and says that barbershops have been flooded as the temperatures have been rising -- with men shaving off their entire head of hair, beards included. They say "half measures are no longer sufficient" and the phrase "a little off the top" has gone out the window. One barber estimated that on a hot day 15 to 25 folks come in for the $14 "zero cut," which is pretty self-explanatory. Even women are joining in, as one shop noted the fairer sex had been coming in for a "Sinead O'Connor" to help them cope with the heat and humidity.

Astor Place = no matter what you tell the person cutting your hair, you will end up with a haircut twice as short as you wanted it to be.
"All the news that's fit to print"
You know, a few people doing something doesn't make it a trend.
I also don't know what is worse. Thy NYTimes covering this or Jen Carlson rewriting it made for a blurb in 17 magazine.
I read it as Jen making fun of the Times for printing such drivel.
You mean my lack of hair is finally trendy?
I grow my hair longer in the summer, but cut it short in the winter because I hate having hat head.
Considering how vulnerable the scalp is to sunburn, it's dumb to expose it to intense summer sun. I just wear a Tilley sun hat and the shade it gives keeps me cooler. I notice I don't really feel as hot when I walk out from under a building's shadow since the sun isn't beating on my face and hair. Also, sunburn on the scalp can damage hair follicles. You'd better like being bald now, because you may be setting yourself up for permanent baldness.
TJ - they don't call it "Astor Disaster" for nothing!
It is good to get hair cut in summer because it is a very good idea for cooling off. I will also get my hair cut in this summer.
