Know your hair history? This is Ragtails, a shaved-side street look with extensions by Simon Forbes, Antenna London, who had the clients to wear this look way back then in the 80s, before anyone else. But now Is another matter. Closely shaved sides are all over the place, for both sexes. Lupita Nyong’o, Brad Pitt, many more …
Antenna Salon, now no longer, was the first to cater to the people Simon Forbes mixed with on the London club scene, and had its roots in punk.
Forbes first became world- famous for Boy George’s colorful hair extensions. The Monofibre extensions by Dome were later worn by Cher, Princess Stephanie of Monaco, Annie Lennox, Carly Simon, Tracey Ullman, Sarah Brightman of Phantom fame, Marilyn. For more on WorldGreat Simon Forbes, click here:
