I am always looking forward to visiting this special place in Turkey— the Hair Museum. Last week I went there with my classmates. There are so many locks（缕） of hair in it.
The story goes that a man's good friend was going to leave him. He asked for something to help him remember her. She cut off a lock of her hair and gave it to him. He put it up in his shop, and he told the story to all the people visiting his shop. Many women enjoyed the story and left a lock of their hair, too.
The man started the Hair Museum in 1979. It now has about 16, 000 locks of hair. There's also another reason to leave some hair. Twice a year the museum holds a competition and decides which lock of hair is the best. If your hair wins, you can stay for one night in the hotel next to the Hair Museum for free in the summer months.
A number of people visit the Hair Museum every day. Visitors can walk down the museum seeing the hair in different colors and lengths. If visitors want to leave their locks of hair to the museum, there are pencils, paper and scissors（剪刀） for them. They need to write their name and age on the paper.
