Synopsis
Hair is potent. It can be an emotional and intense matter across gender - it will grow in places you don’t like, it may desert you - suddenly, or gradually. It is a symbol of gender, sexuality, status, and more. Part memoir, part investigation across history, politics, religion, and culture, Hair/Power explores the power, control and ultimate liberation that hair can provide.
