The news suggests that the hair on women's and men's heads might share a common ancestory.</p> <p>"I was waiting for my son to have his usual short back and sides, and realised I was going to be late for my salon appointment at Rodrigo's', explains Judith Bantock, who wishes to remain anonymous. </p> <p>"When I heard 'Who's next?', I thought, well, why not? I've given birth twice, so what could be worse? I had an extra-strength neurofen in my handbag so took that, sat down, gripped the chair arms and said, as I'd overheard other men do, 'Just a trim please'.</p> <p>"Gary the barber seemed a bit taken aback, but needed no more briefing than that. He set to work with a sterile comb and scissors, which snipped through my hair with no special preparation or anything. Soon the tips of my feminine locks were tumbling over me in a fulsome cascade."</p> <p>"I hadn't been prepared for the lack of conversation though. Just sitting there without Rodrigo's usual banter was making me extremely nervous. So like a fool I blurted out, "What about Liverpool then?"</p> <p>The room fell silent for a moment. Clippers were put down, combs returned to sterilising solution. I felt such an idiot because of course it dawned on me, (too late!) the Premier League season had ended weeks before. But then from two chairs down came a voice. "They did well to pick up a win at FC Gomel last week in the Europea League, with Downing sizzling one in from the right."</p> <p>Normal service was resumed, to my great relief, and my cut was finished in what to me was record time."</p> <p>Samples of Bantock's hair are being examined by genetics specialists who are still baffled as to how she has somehow inherited the male hair gene. But with a saving of around £40 per visit, Bantock says she'll be back. </p> <p>"Now when it comes to something for the weekend, I can afford something a bit more exciting than a pack of three!" </p>
