MIT faculty members aren’t usually held to a certain standard for fashionable hair, and from the looks of it, nominated energy secretary Ernest Moniz got pretty comfy with that idea during his 40-year tenure at the university.
In fact, his coif, which appears to be a mash up of ’30s finger waves and a George Washington-type bob, is so dated that the Twittersphere erupted Tuesday with commentary like @Artologica’s “Ernest Moniz has perfect hair for a cabinet secretary—in the early 19th century.” And riffing on Moniz’s penchant for clean energy, Fast Company’s editorial director Tyler Gray tweeted, “Even his hair harnesses the power of the wind.”
