So it would appear that Lloyd's of London has taken out a $1 million policy on Troy Polamalu's hair (pictured above in all its Super Bowl-winning glory). This might seem vapid, like every insured body part other than Tina Turner's legs, but we'd like to point out one thing: America's favorite Pittsburgh Steeler did not insure his own hair; it was Head & Shoulders, the shampoo for which he is currently the spokesman (and which some of us, believe it or not, still use around here). The Pro Bowl safety's signature locks have been growing for the better part of a decade in deference to his Samoan heritage — and that's really all you have to do to get this look: grow. They must be a tempting retaliatory target for smothered running backs and wide-outs the league over; no wonder the dandruff-shampoo giant has taken steps to protect its shiny (and bouncy) investment. And no wonder we've been seeing more free-flowing copycats like Troy around the globe. Take note.
