April 15, 2012: Superman's Spit Curl a Pop Culture Icon

Superman's Spit Curl Patrícia Póvoa, a Portugal-based graphic designer, has put together a collection of the most recognizable haircuts in pop culture, with Superman's spit curl amongst them.

    Brand recognition comes in all shapes, colors and sizes, but one thing I never associated with it before was hair. Donald Trump has some brand recognition going on with his famous comb-over, but other than him, it never crossed my mind until today. As it turns out, there are several characters who rock their brand recognition with their hair. Artist Patrícia Póvoa, who lives in Portugal, put together this collection of iconic haircuts with copyright privileges called Copyrighted Famous Hairs. In other words, nobody else can really choose these haircuts since they "belong" to these characters, in a brand recognition kind of way.

Other characters included in the series include Princess Leia, Marge Simpson, and Mr. T.
