Stinger Vintage Razor Comb

This might look like a vintage straight razor, but it’s a comb. Its curved handle is made from aluminum alloy with a black finish, and its stainless steel comb is easy to open and close thanks to a thumb flipper and scalloped back. It’s also got an emergency glass breaker in its tail, and its comb can be swapped with a utility blade for opening boxes.

Making Synthetic Hair by Hand

With Halloween coming up, you might wear a wig as part of your costume. Chances are that it has synthetic hair made from thin strands of plastic. While most fake hair is made by machines in factories, this one artist shows how he makes the stuff from scratch, using nothing more than some plastic, a toaster oven, a wire brush, and his hands.

Furry Tetris

Furry Tetris

C4D4U seems to have an obsession with Tetris. A while back, the CG artist showed us what the game might look like with puzzle pieces made from Jell-O, and now we get to see what happens when those same pieces get moldy and covered with hair. They remind us of Sully from Monsters, Inc.

World’s Tallest Mohawk

World’s Tallest Mohawk

Meet Joseph Grisamore. As of this writing, Joe is the Guinness World Record holder for the tallest full mohawk, at 108.2 cm, or about 42.6″. Getting his long, flowing locks to stand upright takes about an hour – with help from his hairdresser and “a crew of people.” We’re guessing he has to limbo his way through doorways.

The Bald Future

The Bald Future

Le Futur Sera Chauve, or The Bald Future from Paul Cabon, explores the ideas of society’s view towards bald men as seen through the eyes of a young guy who still has hair, but knows his destiny. Charming animation and an ending that might make you laugh out loud.

A look at one of the slick 3D graphics workflows in the latest version of Autodesk Maya, the ability to no only model realistic hair, but to sculpt, paint, and groom a hairdo like a virtual hair stylist. Even individual strands of hair can be manipulated if you so choose.

Magic Beard

Magic Beard

Minneapolis-based photographer Ben Garvin has created a video of stop-motion beard tricks, which he built on his iPhone with the Stop Motion Studio app. The whimsical music makes it even more amusing.
