Crazed Rafael Nadal fans will have to do without leftover clippings from their idol's lastest haricut, with the New York stylist who did the $250 job saying they've been swept away with the rubbish as per usual.
VIP stylist Julien Farel told the New York Post it's the second year that the Spaniard has come to his Madison Avenue shop for a trim. He added there is no way he would ever seek to profit despite pleas form fans to save and sell them a few locks.
Farel did jokingly credit Nadal's New York title a year ago to the haircut he received at that edition: “He can only win if he sees me,” boasted the stylist, who said he has "too much respect" to sell any Nadal souvenirs to obsessed fans.
Nadal showed off his new do in his second-round win over Nicolas Mahut, with the shorter look now a part of his revised overall look. The tabloid then reported that the freshly groomed second seed headed off with his girlfriend to shop for shoes.

This blog is not about what Roger thinks, in case you hadn't noticed, Sienna. It's abot Rafa and his fans wanting clippings of his hair.
nadline , 9/4/11 11:17 AM
and that's the problem.
Sienna is right in what she says. who cares about rafa's hair? it's so gross.
it has nothing to do with tennis, or hadn't you noticed? Next it will be people queuing to see rafa on the toilet!
Fleur , 9/4/11 11:39 AM
^^^^You should be so lucky.
nadline , 9/4/11 12:15 PM
This is at least something for tennis fans. Unlike a previous 'news' item informing us about Federer's not very enlightened views on the American election process.
ed251137 , 9/4/11 12:41 PM
nadline you are gross to suggest what you did. sad person. that your life is base.
ednumbers, roger always makes the news and people listen, better than informing tennis fans of your injuries then going on to win. not so enlightening. just lies.
Fleur , 9/4/11 1:25 PM
Fleur, you can't blame me for your crass comment, you brought the subject down to that level.
nadline , 9/4/11 2:26 PM
I thought this thread is about Rafa and his hair? What has Fed and his fanatics got to do with this thread? Who cares whether Fed is honest in his speech or not? Not everyone is interested in Fed. Please leave us the Rafa fans alone to talk about Rafa! His fans love his hair, and it got nothing to do with Fed and Sienna. Stop being a spoil sport! Go back to the thread about Fed please of you want to talk about Fed!
luckystar , 9/4/11 2:39 PM
I just want you guys to admit that his hair is receiding and when he sweats it looks like he is as bald as a cucumber. This thread is about Rafa's hair so why not talk about it. Maybe he is so vain that he knows this and his mojo is gone because of that. Well he is a good looking boy no Javier Bardem but still a handsome kid.
Sienna , 9/4/11 3:43 PM
So what if he's balding? There are fans who are willing to pay to get the clippings of him, that shows how popular he is! Who cares whether he's balding or not! He's such a beautiful boy with a beautiful personality, on top of having a good tennis brain and good tennis skills, that's enough reasons for his fans to love him. You love your Fed so leave us alone to love our Rafa, no conflicts there!
luckystar , 9/4/11 4:09 PM
"Well he is a good looking boy no Javier Bardem but still a handsome kid..."
Ha-ha,
Javier Bardem is a really cool actor...but he's no oil painting that for sure!
Still each to their own...
Sosueme , 9/4/11 4:23 PM
Sienna, get over you obsession with Rafa. I bet you have a poster of him in your bedroom. Your veiled attempt to drool over Rafa by pretending to be bashing him is plain for all to see. What's it to you if he is balding? Why do you care, because his fans evidently don't give a toss about that.
I suspect you were amongst the people offering money for his clippings because you want a bit of his hair that you are so hung up on, before he loses the lot as you seem to think he would.
nadline , 9/4/11 4:26 PM
Sienna is just irate that she didn't get any of Rafa's clippings so she's now angry with the whole world! Calm down Sienna, try again at the next slam in Melbourne or the one after that in Paris or the one after that...nothing good ever comes easy.
jean , 9/4/11 4:32 PM
Yes Jean but time is running out on him and thus for me. Kike his hair he as a player is on a stief slope downhill.... Maybe there is no more hair to play with by the time Paris comes around.Well atleast he wont be a topcontender with the decline rate he is falling so maybehe could be easier to confront with.
Sienna , 9/4/11 4:45 PM
You guys could start a fight about anything. LOL.
cherylmurray , 9/4/11 5:19 PM
they can... question is how to stop them anytime?
atg , 9/4/11 5:42 PM
The Nadalettes better be of going to the matchthread because he needs the support.
Sienna , 9/4/11 5:56 PM
Well, I could lock all comments, but where would the fun be in that?
cherylmurray , 9/4/11 5:59 PM
i bet jean wears a wig, that's why she needs rafa's clippings! what a stupid story.
really nadline, i think you will find it was you bringing things to a base level. check yours out before you start accusing others. you probably are losing all your hair right now. join rafa and the hoff will you. he's had a hair transplant!
Fleur , 9/4/11 8:27 PM
You feel it ? Smelly... stinky.... oh....fleur:(
zare , 9/4/11 9:01 PM
I feel sorry for posters like Fleur and Sienna who spew venom day in and day out. I would imagine they hold onto every horrible, ugly thought that comes their way so they're angry/jealous enough to conjur up some of the muck they direct at Rafa and his fans at every opportunity. The idea that every Rafa fan must hate Roger is just a smokescreen for them to continue with their hate. Really, I see gastric ulcers or IBS in their future.,
Maya , 9/4/11 9:47 PM
And yes, a few years from now Rafa will be the hottest, cutest, baldy on the tour, so all the better to get those clippings now. I once heard there was someone in Switzerland I think who requested one of Roger's curls as well. Of course the request was granted at no charge.
Maya , 9/4/11 9:54 PM
Ulcers or IBS. Lol
nadline , 9/4/11 10:25 PM
"And yes, a few years from now Rafa will be the hottest, cutest, baldy on the tour, so all the better to get those clippings now..."
Well, he should at least be considerably more attractive than the bulbous Ivan Lubicic,
And he's still a notorious p!?zy hound I hear!
So, nothing to worry about then.
NEXT!
Sosueme , 9/4/11 10:38 PM
Gosh Sosueme, How do you manage to get all the dirt on the players. You must have some REAL special friends to gain that kind of insight. Yea, I'm pretty sure Armani would have given Ljubi a pass. Of all the bald tennis players from the past, it's Agassi who shines brightest.
Maya , 9/4/11 11:07 PM
Steffi concurs Maya darling!
Apparently (and I didn't tell you this), she likes to rub that nose of hers around that pate of his, in an increasingly frenetic circular motion, creating enormous friction to the point that there's fireworks literally erupting off the top of his head!
It's the ultimate sensual 'frisson' I'm told!
Sosueme , 9/4/11 11:29 PM
Yea, that must be a real show stopper. But what's with the "darling" bs. You sound like you just stepped out of a 40's b movie.
Maya , 9/5/11 12:29 AM
It's a ruse,
I'm very f!?king 21st century,
Sosueme , 9/5/11 12:52 AM
"...she likes to rub that nose of hers..."
LOL... the point is that she can do that from another room.
zare , 9/5/11 12:59 AM
That seems like alot of work, but some people will do anything for their art. Who do you refer to as "Puss'nboots"? Do you have favorite players or are you just here for the entertainment value?
Maya , 9/5/11 1:00 AM
Not much work really,
And you should do anything for your art!
No?
Seemingly everyone asks me who Puss n Boots is.
I thought it would be obvious by now, still if you haven't been around for a while,
This should enlighten you,
Who is Spanish?
Adored by quite a few of the ladies (esp on TT)
Just got cramped out?
Why Puss n Boots of-course!
Otherwise google it, unless you're retarded, it should come to you....
Sosueme , 9/5/11 1:50 AM
Yea, every well rounded, 21st century female has the word "retarded" at the tip of her tongue. Your Puss n Boots notion is not interesting enough to google. I was hoping for a straight forward answer, but since that's not your style, I can live without it. And while art is beautiful to behold, it's still just a thing that one should be able to live with or without.
Maya , 9/5/11 2:53 AM
Oh FFS its Rafa,
Alright?
Goodnight!
Sosueme , 9/5/11 3:17 AM
These female Rafa fans have no sense of humour whatsoever!
Lol!
Sosueme , 9/5/11 3:36 AM
Oh yea, Puss n boots is hilarious stuff. You must have a writer help you with your material. Say something funny Sosueme, I love a good chuckle.
Maya , 9/5/11 3:50 AM
F!?k off Maya!
Sosueme , 9/5/11 4:02 AM
What? All out of riddles and clever banter? Who would have thunk?
Maya , 9/5/11 4:27 AM
keep your hair on maya!
you're adding to a stupid headline.
your comments are gastric band snapping. obsessing about hair. you should be a hairdresser, you and nadline. obsessed, degrading fans. you're not clever at all. silly comments.
Fleur , 9/5/11 6:43 AM
Nice one Maya. Now, who's the one with "no sense of humour whatsoever!"?
phoenix , 9/5/11 6:48 AM
Not one of the news articles being commented lately is about Federer. No wonder his fans are all over the place. :-)
phoenix , 9/5/11 6:52 AM
phoenix,
It sure helps to have you around. You can always find a way to help make us laugh when we really need it! :)
Nativenewyorker , 9/5/11 7:58 AM
That is funny because every single line Fed gets after a match is talked about on TT. He is the one who questions the direction of the sport in order to majke adjudgements , learning and becoming bigger etc.
Nadal's headlines are about new hairstyle or cramping in front of pressers. Novak is in a different tourne. He thinks only about himself.
Novakis throwing master finals away wilest absolutely not injured. Strangely showing his new spodmobile where he could do his prrivate stuff after every training. That pod is surely a hasartfull place for peopleto be in!

Yeah great enjoy them wile you can, Baldy.
I think this is classic example of difference in a tennis leading men to just enjoy life make his money and let it go. As to Roger who is question some deccisions and tries to up the game of tennis. Roger always gives his hounest oppinion. Surfice speeds and the lack of variaty, Try to spead time between matches in order to not loose TV ratings, retirement and leading by example and stating clear facts and raise questions about some retirements~! As to a new hairdew or a Podloving bouncer.
That is the true meaning of being #1
