Hair Glasses, is this cool or geek-chic gone too far?

Hair glasses are the first in a new trend, Studio Swine a multi disciplinary design practice by Azusa Marukami and Alexander Groves demonstrate the enormous flexibility of human hair. Combined with bio-resin as a binding agent the frames are 100% biodegradable. 





A collection of sustainable accessories like this unique collection reflect a new movement for renewable, viable materials. The beauty industry imports up to 15 million pounds of human hair a year, a material set to become more available with predicted future population increases. 




A hugely innovative idea which displays substance combined with beautiful execution.
