“Theodore Pappas has written an erudite, witty, eminently charming book on a subject with surprising richness and depth. This is cultural history at its most entertaining, by turns moving and salacious. As Pappas ably demonstrates, a person’s hair—especially when that person happens to be the most powerful man in the free world—is the product of so much more than a comb and a cut.”
