She kept photographs of every Beatles' head she had the pleasure to have known. In some cases, the Beatles' hairdresser kept even more - including a lock of John Lennon's hair.
Today, fans will have the chance to buy the hair and other autographed photos and Beatles memorabilia when they go up for auction in Worthing, on England's south coast. Lennon gave the band's hairdresser, Betty Glasow, the lock of hair in a copy of his book, A Spaniard in the Works.
In the dedication he wrote, "To Betty, Lots of Love and Hair, John Lennon." The book - with the hair still inside - could fetch as much as £3000 ($8019) or more, said Nick Muston, director of Gorringes auction house. Glasow, who kept The Beatles' moptops trimmed on the film sets of A Hard Day's Night and Help, decided to sell the items because she wanted fans to have them, Muston said. Other items in the sale include signed photographs of the band, including one signed George "Dandruff" Harrison.
