Griffin Center News Trend: Chest Hair is Making a Comeback!
A recent article in the Wall Street Journal highlighted the popular reemergence of a trend for deeper cut shirts in men – revealing chest hair. While revealing the chest and chest hair was recently a fashion faux pas, unbuttoned shirts and deeper cut V-necks have made a comeback on New York runways and with mainstream American fashion.
The WSJ Article quotes a New York-based men’s style consultant, Tyler Thoreson who said, “The low-cut look is better if you have a little chest hair.”
Some say that the rising popularity of “man cleavage” also affectionately coined “heavage” is a throwback to legendary pop icons such as Marlon Brando (Streetcar Named Desire), Sean Connery as James Bond, and John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever.
Luckily for men experiencing pattern baldness on their head, hair loss is not typical to occur anywhere else on the body, including the chest.

For All You Elvis Fans Out There…
In a recent Elvis Presley memorabilia auction in Chicago, one buyer went home with a $18,300 clump of hair. The hair, advertised as being from the head of the King himself, allegedly came from his haircut upon joining the US Army in 1958. While the hair was not DNA-tested, it was said by auctioneers to be authenticated by “an expert in celebrity hair.”
Although I would personally demand DNA evidence if I was shelling out over $18,000, the verification seemed to be enough for the item winner and president of the Tankers Fan Club for Elvis devotees.
Other hot ticket items included Presley wedding photos, sweaty scarves, and a cotton shirt with the monogram “EP” that sold for an outstanding $62,800!
