Steve Jobs Tribute Haircut At Fifth Avenue iPhone Launch

Friday October 14, 2011 9:59 am PDT by Jordan Golson

This young man, in line for the iPhone 4S at Apple's Fifth Avenue flagship store, has a unique tribute haircut to Steve Jobs. On one side, Jonathan Mak's Steve Jobs tribute logo, and Albert Watson's famous photo of Steve Jobs from Fortune in 2006. On the other, he has Apple's famous "Think Different" slogan emblazoned.

No word on who actually did the impressive cut. The photos were snapped by navigation app maker CoPilot.

Thanks to MacRumors forum member kfury77 for the tip

Update: The artist who did the work was TheJohanRuiz

Ridiculous, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't impressed.

Pretty much my thoughts exactly "Wow, what an idiot... but goddddd that's cool!"

Better than a tattoo... his hair will grow so he can have his next tribute sculpted into his hair. :)

This is my friend's work. He is by far the most talented hair artist there is. The work is on his brother's head. @thisisprecision is his twitter. You may not like it, you may think it's weird, but, in the end, you cannot help but be impressed.

I can't believe all the negativity in this thread. Wow, relax people. This guy's hair is only going to stay this way for a short time, and he can always shave it shorter to remove the artwork. It's not like this is a permanent tattoo.

I think it's awesome that this guy has enough respect and self-worth to want to stand out and say "this is me. I'm a fanatic". There's nothing wrong with that, because it's based on positive values and shows respect for a great man. Maybe that's just how I see it.

How many of you say this is stupid because you're too chicken to show up in the world?

Yikes... reminds me of Professor Quirrell from the first Harry Potter ... when he had Voldemort on the back of his head!

Cool is definitely not what popped into my mind.
Bet that guy doesn't get many dates.
