Hairy Folk

Taken at face value, hairy people enjoyed a higher esteem and fascination than nearly any category of freak performers. In their rarest form, hypertrichosis, they provide some of the most spectacular images of anomalous human beings we have. Perhaps the most famous of the hairy people, "JoJo The Dog-Faced Boy" has entered the lexicon, and become a phrase in the English language that signifies freakishness and wonder.
