John Lennon’s Lock of Hair Sells for $48,000
A lock of John Lennon’s hair sold in a London auction on Wednesday for $48,000!

The legend’s follicles were sold to an unnamed telephone bidder and was cut by the band’s former hairdresser. The hair was originally estimated to sell for between $4-6,000, but the fans obviously put more value into it.
Yahoo News reports,
The hair — inside an autographed copy of Lennon’s book “A Spaniard in the Works” — sold to an unnamed telephone bidder.
Gorringes auction house had estimated the hair would sell for $4,000 to $6,000.
Lennon gave the book and the lock of hair to Betty Glasow, the Fab Four’s hairdresser during their heyday. He wrote in the book, “To Betty, Lots of Love and Hair, John Lennon xx.”
“It is astonishing that there is still so much interest in the Beatles and the sale goes to prove that John Lennon is still an icon,” said Francesca Collin, a spokeswoman for Gorringes.
“To have some of Lennon’s hair along with a signed note from him really does give it fantastic provenance and authenticity,” Collin said.
