Selling it...

In Pompeii, a special law was directed at prostitutes. They had to dye their hair either blue, red or yellow in order to be able to work.

And,

In Michigan a woman isn't allowed to cut her own hair without her husband's permission.

Coincidence? I think not. "Dahling, I'm just zipping off to the hairdressers again..."
And,

An 18th century French prostitute could be spared punishment if she were willing to join the opera.

hmmm what's was the punishment again?
