Each strand of hair is formed
into a shape dictated by solving
an equation in three dimensions
and fixed there with a spray of
gel. The equations will form a
family, with graded parameters
from front to back and centre to
either side (if you wish it
symmetrical) or it may vary
smoothly from
left to right
(assymmetrical).
This would make for great
conversations about one's head.
"Looks great. Just what is it?"
"It's an ellipsoidal differential
bessel funcion, in the front,
here, and it sort of slides into
a laplace transform for the back
with a touch of sinusoidal
modulations for the sides"

It would only be 'assymmetrical' if you had very long hair. |

I have to admit, I like the idea of walking in to a meeting, standing in front of the projector and using the shadow from your coiffure to illustrate your company's projected earnings. |

A doctorate in theoretical mathematics would be required of hairdressers!? |

Omygod! That's totally hyperbolic! |
