Late Night Woman's Hour: Hair
From Rapunzel to Samson, hair is all about sex, gender politics and power. Lauren Laverne's discussion guests are Emma Tarlo, Chidera Eggerue and Alex Brownsell.
From Rapunzel to Samson, hair is all about sex, gender politics, and power. Whatever your gender or ethnicity, the way you style your hair isn't only a powerful statement of identity, it also invites scrutiny and interpretation from those around you. For some people - particularly women of colour - that scrutiny can be intense.
Lauren's guests this month are Prof Emma Tarlo, author of Entanglement: the Secret Lives of Hair; presenter and blogger Chidera Eggerue, aka the Slumflower, and Alex Brownsell, co-founder of the Bleach salon chain.
