Barbers in Bikinis, Girls on Surfboards
Warsaw - Barbers in bikinis pose a "health risk", according to officials in the northern Polish city of Slupsk.
The city's numerous bikini-wearing female barbers have been ordered by health inspectors to obey safety regulations and cover up while on duty, according to reports on Tuesday.
"Health ministry regulations say unequivocally that hairdressers must wear protective uniforms," health official Janusz Zareba told daily Glos Pomorza.
"These ladies do not fulfil the requirements, so they can't give haircuts," he said, admitting however that "transparent plastic overalls" could possibly comply with the health code.
Clients have nothing but praise for the talents and charms of the hairdressers. "I've never had service as good as this," one told Glos Pomoza. - Sapa-dpa
