Boris Johnson has long been known for his shambolic nature. He wore slouchy suits to fancy dinners with heads of state. He hid from reporters in a walk-in fridge, and when he jumbled up his notes during a speech on the future of British industry he started extemporizing about the children’s cartoon Peppa Pig. He seems not to know how many children he has.
But aside from his ability to skirt the truth with athletic dexterity, the former prime minister’s most identifiable feature has for years been his unruly mop of bright-blond hair. Long believed to be just another manifestation of his overall thoughtlessness—perhaps hacked into shape by his wife, Carrie, with a bowl and a pair of blunt scissors—we now know that Johnson’s hair is, in fact, the work of a professional named Kelly Jo Dodge.
