This [hair-like lamp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phantom-lighting) is named Frisa, but I think it would be more suited being called “Cousin It” from the movie the Adams Family. While long-flowing hair is usually considered beautiful, this lamp is a little creepy.

The hair lamp by Anika Engelbrecht is so intriguing because, like real hair, it is customizable; you can braid it, put it in ponytails, pigtails or play around with a fringe. While I admit it is a little odd, it would be a great [conversation starter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tangent-lamp).
