I started growing my hair out back in college as a bet. Five years later, my Jesus locks still grossly flow below my shoulders and I never got a dime from my reneging roommate. At this point, I’m so sick of this dirty mop atop my head, I’ve heavily considered growing it out long enough to donate to one of those hair foundations like Locks of Love, in order to A.) help out an unfortunate soul who might actually need a Beware wig, B.) get a real job and C.) stop looking like a scrub.

Then there’s Lady Gaga.

Instead of doing the right thing and donating her pretty blonde locks to someone in need, she went and did the literally unthinkable. She made a hat out of her own hair. Not an animal’s hair (because that’s cruel, of course). Not imitation human hair (because that’s super odd, of course). HER OWN FUCKING HAIR. As you can see from the Marilyn-Monroe-pose the pop diva’s got goin’ on up top, she’s obviously pretty happy about it, too.

I won’t front, I like Miss GaGa’s music and even her outlandish personality, but something about this Jeffrey Dahmer-esque wardrobe accessory just gives me the heeby jeebies.
