Do you think you’re famous? Do you often dream of the day when you’ll appear on a late-night talk show and tell the world about the intimate details of your life ?

? Thursday: Japanese hair dresser
6-8 p.m. at Step Bone Cut Studio, 229 Cook St. 2nd floor
Sayrui Ushio, founder of the patented hair technology Step Bone Cut, is showcasing her concept that a haircut is a work of art. Ushio’s instillation will express the life of hair in comparison to the life of a plant. Mannequins with unique hair designs will show how life swells in your hair, just as it does for a plant. With her drawings, painted on large window canvases and mannequins, this exhibition will give viewers a peek into Ushio’s creative process.
