The Audacity of Layers

The Audacity of Layers by Melody Kramer.
FOUR MORE SHEARS! FOUR MORE SHEARS!

YES WE CAN...trim bangs.

Obama's Hair Design -- A Hilariously named business that I found while walking around near Printer's Row, in Chicago (Congress and Dearborn). It was not there 2 weeks ago....

Funny how people will try to make a buck on anything won't they?

Actually, didn't this place used to be called Osama's Hair Design? I'm serious about this. For years, there had been a place on Dearborn, just north of Congress, on the east side of the street, called Osama's. That's absolutely hilarious if they recently changed their name to Obama's.

I'm sure that this is just a stunt, the place is actually called Osama's and they figured they show some pride by changing it.

Oh my gosh, I don't know -- I live right by there, and I've never noticed it (but to be honest, I wasn't looking...) That's hilarious!

I wonder how much it costs to be able to sit in that chair.

We have an Ossama's down here in Hyde Park, too--if anything THAT one should be called Obama's, even though that isn't the place where The Man Himself gets his hair did (seen that one, too.)

I thought Obama stopped getting his hair cut at the barber's for security reasons....:P I wonder if his barber's moving to DC -- I think the Trib reported that a bit ago.

I'm sure he did, but we went for U of C Scav Hunt last May, before half my neighborhood was blocked off by CPD/Secret Service... there's a lot to be said for having a President-Elect for your neighbor but I am really glad to have my bus route back to normal :)

Ditto. His transitional motorcade passed by my apartment every day...(Though when I lived in DC, the presidential motorcade passed by my office a lot, and no one blinked.)
