We've featured a few freaky innovations made of hair, but [human hair headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/johannes-vermeer-1) are certainly a first for Trend Hunter.

Instead of a [traditional black strap](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aiaiai-x-brain-dead-tracks-headphones) and ear covers, these headphones from the Limi Feu S/S 09 show at Paris Fashion Week look like thick braids across with woven Princess Leia buns. The blond ones would make for a great modern for a German beer girl costume.

I guess the mane point is to attract attention, and that the hairphones certainly have.
