HAIR

• Emma Watson on cutting off her hair: “I had journalists asking me if this meant I was coming out, if I was a lesbian now. That haircut did make me realize how subjective everyone’s opinion is. Some people were crazy for it and some people just thought I’d lost my shit. All I can do is follow my instincts, because I’ll never please everyone.” [Styleite]

• A new hair salon in Tribeca that markets itself as “Clean-Air” doesn’t use products like hairspray and nail polish that make breathing bothersome.  The salon actually has a sealed-off, ventilated “Fume Room” for occasions when those products are needed. [Racked]

• Drew Barrymore says she gets uncomfortable when her hairstyle stays the same for too long. [Us]
