Seeing as nano-robots cant be too far off, why not have hundreds of thousands of the little things >living< in your hair. At the touch of a button your hair will re-arrange itself into any style you've programmed it to. It would be great for answering the door the morning after a night out, instead of your hair plastered to on side of your face and sticking up on the other it would be neatly styled instantly.

       In the absence of hair, the bald option would be heady tattoos that change according to time, location environment or spouse's mood.

       An interim solution would be an LCD skullcap capable of displaying either a hairstyle or, when appropriate, video or data.

       I like the skull cap LCD version but would like it more if it could display what is visible from the left side on the right side and right on left, etc. giving the illusion of invisibility.
