A Naked Woman Has Made The Alphabet Out Of Human Hair

    WARNING: Contains actual naked woman. Also, why isn't this called "Hairvetica"?

    New York artist Shurong Diao has created this slightly unsettling "hair alphabet".

    She's recreated the entire lower-case alphabet using the hair of this unnamed model.

    Shurong Diao, 24, is originally from Hangzhou in eastern China.

    "This Hair Alphabet is inspired by Chinese calligraphy style," she says on her website.

    "I want to build a connection between Chinese characters and Roman alphabet by using different forms of long black hair."

    "Just like putting ink on rice paper to draw Chinese Characters."

    Unfortunately this isn't all natural hair - "I couldn't find any women with hair that long," says Diao. The fiddly bits of the letters are completed with extensions.

    It's not clear, however, why the model is naked in the photographs.

    Anyway, here's the entire hairy spectacle, from hirsute "a" to furry "z".
