Chinese Hair-Stylist Showcases Hair-Made Obama Sculpture

To celebrate President Barack Obama’s visit to China, Huang Xin, a talented hairdresser, created a small sculpture of the US head of state from human hair.

This is not the first time Huang Xin captured the attention of the media with his hair-molding talent, he was the man behind the Tiananmen Square model made out of hair. The Chinese hairdresser spent seven days and seven nights making Hairy Obama and used four kilograms of human hair.

The Chinese found many ways to welcome President Obama on his 4-day-visit to China, but Huang Xin’s hair sculpture has to be one of the most original.

Sexiest Swine Flu Protest to Date

Guys will definitely appreciate these photos a lot more than girls, but I’m sure we can all agree the Ukrainian FEMEN group can protest in the most original way.

If you didn’t know anything about FEMEN, they are a group of women from the Ukraine, who protest in the most unusual ways, in order to raise awarness to feminist issues in their country. In an attempt to draw attention on the plight of Ukrainian prostitutes, the group’s members dressed-up as nurses “to cure foreigners of sex-addiction”

On November 9, 2009, the sexy members of FEMEN attracted quite a crowd in Kyiv square, when they appeared dressed in underwear made from swine flu masks. This was their way of protesting against authorities using the flu outbreak to scare citizens before Ukraine’s presidential elections, on January 17.

FEMEN members ackowledged it’s their sexiness that draws attention and admits most people would ignore their protests if they were wearing normal clothes.

I’m writing this post to let you know I’m going on a short vacation and won’t be posting until August 31st. I’m going to Kusadasi, Turkey, to see the incredibly beautiful Cotton Castle at Pamukkale. I’ve posted some photos of it when I first started Oddity Central and have been wanting to see it first hand ever since.

I hope y’all stick around while I’m gone. :)
