Today's quote:
"OK, what I do is, wash it with Head and Shoulders. I don't dry it, though. I let it dry by itself. It takes about an hour. Then I read papers and things…I also watch TV. I love Fox, I like Morning Joe, I like that the Today show did a beautiful piece on me yesterday—I mean, relatively speaking. OK, so I've done all that. I then comb my hair. Yes, I do use a comb…Do I comb it forward? No, I don't comb it forward…I actually don't have a bad hairline. When you think about it, it's not bad. I mean, I get a lot of credit for comb-overs. But it's not really a comb-over. It's sort of a little bit forward and back. I've combed it the same way for years. Same thing, every time."
~ Donald Trump on his much revered hair (Rolling Stone)
