Hair : A Journey into the Transformation of Self
by Grant McCracken
Most people in modern Western society are obsessed with hair: hair
they have, hair they don't, hair they don't want (there), the latest to-do

has written an insightful study of how Westerners redefine themselves by
defining and redefining their 'dos, dont's, and dyes, and the fetishistic
fascination with hair styles of the rich and famous.
Although written primarily about women's hair, and in particular, blond
hair, my entire household--men and women alike--learned a great deal from
the in-depth analyses of these dead strands of protein extruding from tiny
pores on our heads which nonetheless have extraordinary power in determining
status and even wealth. Recommended. Amazon.com

or natural--marks a person as clearly as speech, clothing, and smell. It
defines a person's gender, sexual availability and desirability, age, social
status, and even political stance. It may also act as a basis for discrimination
in treatment by others. While hair's high salience as both sign and symbol
extends cross-culturally through time, its denotations are far from universal....

Hair
in African Art and Culture
by Roy Sieber (Editor), Frank Herreman (Editor)
Book Description: In the West, hairstyle choices range from
the purely functional to the complex fashion statement. In the African
continent their significance is far greater. Hair can be an indicator of
age, authority, social status, and religious affiliation, as well as part
of a long tradition of aesthetic adornment or a strictly contemporary style
statement. In some cultures hair itself is used as a potent substabce with
supernatural power.
