She’s the most powerful woman in politics, but when it comes to Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s hair, she finds herself lacking any power to veto a bad hair day.
“Nancy said that in her next life, she would like to be able to style her own hair,” said Gary Croteau, stylist at Salon Mario Russo in Boston, Mass. Not too surprisingly, as for years, Pelosi has made the salon at the Four Seasons in Georgetown her first stop every morning.
Croteau counts Sen. Ted Kennedy as a client, so in sort of homage to the senator, Pelosi choose him to primp her hair prior to his memorial service. And it sounds like although Pelosi depends on a hair professional, she still expects the perfection. Due to the presence of Tropical Storm Danny, Croteau added it was very difficult to get the Speaker’s hair just right.
Along with Kennedy, Pelosi sat in the same salon chair visited by Mandy Moore, Meredith Viera, Darryl Hannah, and Dennis Leary.
