No hairdressers in Middle-earth! (that's for sure) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Look at those Orcs. They seriously need a makeover and a hair cut. And look at Saruman's hair and Gandalf's! Their hair is so long that it probably has never been cut and never will be cut, that's for sure! And the Men. Their hair is all shoulder length (perhaps it doesn't grow as fast as some other races. Or maybe it was the fashion in Middle-earth to have long hair. The Dwarves never cut their bushes of hair. They plait their beards. The Elves have very long hair, but at least they manage to keep it silky and clean. I wonder.....Maybe there was no need for a hairdresser in Middle-earth!

I was just thinking. (he he)

Good Day Anndvasawen! I agree there are probably no hairdressers in Middle-earth. Maybe there are but they are not very good are they?

P.S Maybe speak to Borrow-Wight to have one of the articles removed. I don’t know if you noticed but you posted two of the same article.

Boromir's hair was very neatly 'shorn', as they say in the books. I take it he didn't do that himself. Who cut his hair?

Maybe Anborn cut it.

I have to confess, when I first saw Lego's knives in their sheaths on his back I thought they were hedgeclippers! But now that I think about it, maybe they're knives and giant haircutters in one!

How do you account for the elves' silky tresses? I want to know their secret. Perhaps they wash their hair in Galadriel's mirror.

Elves seem to just be naturally . . . pretty. hehe. They never have to do anything - they are all natural [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Me! Duh! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Perhaps the Elves steal some of the Entwash for their hair-cleansing purposes. "Herbal Entwashes?"

If there arent any, how do they have such perfect hair?!

Quirkette · 03-27-2003, 08:27 AM

Same reason they have perfect skin, and everything else: PERFECT ELF GENES!!!!!! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

And they are well versed in little braids.
