Bull sperm hair treatment
A hairdresser is offering clients a new conditioning treatment made out of bull’s semen.
The 45-minute treatment costs £55 and uses semen from Aberdeen Angus bulls on a farm in Cheshire.
Hari’s, in Knightsbridge, London, combines the sperm with the root of protein-rich plant katera, reports Metro.
The mixture is massaged into the client’s hair after it has been shampooed. Then the customer is put under a steamer so the treatment penetrates the hair. Finally, it is blow-dried.
Salon owner Hari Salem said: “I have been searching for an organic product with a lot of protein because that is what hair is made of and lacks when it is dry.
“The semen is refrigerated before use and doesn’t smell. It leaves your hair looking wonderfully soft and thick.”

I’ve been sitting here watching these clips of his set at the 2005 Edinburgh Festival with tears streaming down my face I’ve been laughing so hard. Embedding is disabled but click the link for the video.
