Around the day that would’ve been President George Washington’s 286th birthday, news came out his hair may have been found. Historians found what they believe is a lock of his hair. It was tucked away in an old book.
History.com says in the 18th & 19th centuries, it wasn’t uncommon for hair to be given as a keepsake or collected as a souvenir.
How Can They Tell?
Researchers at Union College in Schenectady, NY were doing an inventory of their library. In an old almanac, they found an envelope stuck between the pages. It had notes which led them to believe it was George Washington’s hair inside.
They also note that unlike many men during those times, President Washington did not wear a wig.
Or could it be that it was such an advanced wig for the time that it was undetectable? That’s how a Hair Replacement System from New England Associates® would be for you: Undetectable. No one would know that it isn’t your own hair unless you tell them.
