Hillary Clinton made part of Bergdorf Goodman, a ritzy department store, shut down on Friday to get a $600 haircut at the posh John Barrett Salon.
Clinton and her huge entourage were seen being ushered through a side entrance of the Fifth Avenue store in Manhattan.“Staff closed off one side of Bergdorf’s so Hillary could come in privately to get her hair done,” a source said. “An elevator bank was shut down so she could ride up alone, and then she was styled in a private area of the salon. Other customers didn’t get a glimpse. Hillary was later seen with a new feathered hairdo.”
Clinton regularly sees salon owner John Barrett, who typically charges $600 for a cut and blow-dry and an additional $600 for hair color.
Bill Clinton was famously caught up in a haircut controversy known as “Hairgate” when he got a $200 haircut on board Air Force One while the plane was idling for an hour with engines running at Los Angeles Airport. Two runways were shut down for an hour and numerous flights were diverted. The incident was quickly dubbed “the most expensive haircut in history”.
The former secretary of state recently responded to concerns that, at 69, she would be the second oldest president in American history to assume office after Ronald Reagan if she were to win the presidency. She informed the South Carolina Democratic Women’s Council in May, assurance that there was no way she would let her hair turn white in the White House, as she has been ‘coloring it for years’.
