Hair Company Bans Bald Man
<snip>

A TOUPEE-wearing man has been dubbed a serial pest and banned from a chain of hair replacement companies.

Mr Kosir says the $4400 piece was "disgraceful".

George Kosir, 40, battled Ultra Hair Studio in the civil claim courts last year and again this week over a $4400 hairpiece he says was the wrong colour and too thin.

"I was too embarrassed to walk out in public," Mr Kosir said.

"It was absolutely disgraceful."

The man, from the Melbourne suburb of Croydon North, says he is not a troublemaker and simply wants value for money.

"I'm just a tiny client, one of millions around the world," he said.

But Ultra Hair Studio has barred the nurse and father of two from their clinics in Fitzroy and Flinders St

2. I agree Feeney2....
I went bald in my mid 20's and although I did have some problems with it, by 30 I had finally come to the realization that there was obvisouly nothing I could do about it, and have since embraced my baldness.
I mean seriuously...I would rather be me, shiny head and all, then some dink with a rug that even with today's standards still look awful.

3. No one ever says "look at that bald guy".
They say "look at the guy with the toupee!".
