Kerry Howley wanted to make human hair less repulsive, so she made these amazingly intricate necklaces from it.

The necklaces are made of human hair, a material we are familiar with and take pride in. However once off of the body it becomes an innate source of aversion. I wanted to see if I could make discarded hair attractive again.
