Blago's Barber Throws Him Under The Bus

Would anyone be surprised if Rod Blagojevich dyed his hair? We didn't think so. Now that Inmate number 40892-424 has traded power suits for prison blues, his former barber is spilling secrets about Blago's famous coif.

Peter Vodovoz says Blagojevich has dyed his hair for more than two decades, which means we'll be seeing photos of a fast-graying Blagojevich as he serves time. A prison spokesman told the Associated Press hair dye isn't allowed behind bars because inmates could use it to change their appearances in an escape attempt.

We imagine this must be driving Blagojevich crazy. His hair is the manifestation of his ego; he was known to have a security officer carry a brush with him while he was governor, he was so obsessive over his hair. Blagojevich has probably carved a brush from a bar of soap to keep his hair from getting mussy.
