There are some things that are regarded as disgusting even though they are a natural part of life; the Stranded Gold collection addresses one such occurrence. Hair that has fallen out naturally may not be as appealing as it was a second ago when attached to the scalp, but the Stranded Gold collection shows that it can find a second life in an interesting way.
Through jewelry, the Stranded Gold collection converts fallen out hair into a different type of accessory. Sine Marie Harwits, the creator and a student at Miami Ad School Hamburg, writes, "For one year I have been collecting every strand of hair that I lost, and I have been crafting something precious out of my precious hair." The results are surprisingly stylish.
