Morrissey's Hairdresser Is On Fire

Chicago-based stylist, Antje Kastner, has just unveiled her web site complete with photos, news and contact info (you're gonna have to e-mail her to inquire about the cost for Moz's signature quiff). Here's a snippet of her experience, as lifted from her official bio: *Born into a family of stylists, Antje expands upon their legacy with a colorful artistic instinct.

Whatever the vision, fabulous hair is the show-stopper.* Learn more about Antje Kastner here.
