Opinion: Can we leave Nancy Pelosi's hair alone? (via latimesopinion)
— was “a slap in the face” when the owner can’t open the business and clients can’t come in. Apparently, because the stylist rents the chair, he could go in if he wished. But it’s such an odd situation that I think the only result of the owner’s diatribe is that the salon loses Pelosi as a customer whenever it does legitimately open again.
Sure, it’s annoying to see anyone — politicians, celebrities, whoever — flout the rules and get a service the rest of us are dying to get or provide. It’s not like John Edwards paying hundreds to a hairstylist to meet him on the campaign trail to style his hair. This was about securing access that the rest of us have been denied.
She’s not the only female politician who has run afoul of the hair salon rules. In April, Chicago MayorLightfoot, true to her straightforward style, defended herself: “I’m the public face of this city. I’m on national media and I’m out in the public eye.”Lightfoot was right. And that’s why we should cut Pelosi some slack here. Well, I will. Because the day that she got her hair done, she went on MSNBC and her hair looked great.
If you want me to tell you that hair is silly and no one should care about it, then you picked the wrong writer to read. We are obsessed with our own hair. We are obsessed with each other’s hair and famous people’s hair — that’s why those hair salon owners are outraged over all the business they’re losing.
Have you looked around? Democratic vice presidential nominee Kamala Harris’ hair is perfection. As is Melania Trump’s. Somebody professional somewhere is doing their hair, multiple times, during the pandemic. In Harris’ case, I just hope it’s in her backyard or something.
