Book description (and pictures) from gestalten.com:

The fascinating beauty and inventive possibilities of hair is revolutionising the human body-extending filament into one of the most attractive mediums for creative experimentation in contemporary visual culture. Hair'em Scare'em documents this palpable trend into a visual sourcebook that presents a captivating collection of hairy works in graphic design, photography, illustration as well as interior design, fashion and jewelry design.

The examples in this book show the extraordinary use of hair as intricately woven hair metamorphosing into body-extending sculptures, exquisite jewelry and fashion adorning hair as decorative elements, photography projects such as humorous portraits of fashionably playful mustaches and beard typography to otherworldly illustrations of long unruly locks of curls.

The included works in Hair'em Scare'em are the best indication of trends in hair outside the mainstream and celebrates hair as a starting point for artistic expression by the finest talents in cutting-edge art and design.
