When your hair is rapidly disappearing and your head begins to resemble a desert, you confront an obvious problem: how do you clip on your kippah?
Well, Brooklyn artist Mark Svartz has found the answer; the hairmulka. A yarmulke attached to fronds of fake hair, it will happily sit atop the most denuded scalp.
Svartz apparently designed the device for a balding brother-in-law but the idea caught on and now it is available in four colours.
It can only be a matter of time before a Charedi version comes out complete with ersatz peyot.
