The “zero-gravity” look is what many people hope to achieve at the Hair Freezing Contest. However, the look requires the temperature to drop to at least minus 20 degrees Celsius for hair to totally freeze. If the weather is any warmer, no matter how hard one tries to shape their hair, it could all fall apart by the time the staff takes the contestant’s photograph. As climate change gets more severe, it’s becoming more likely that people’s dreams of entering the contest will melt away.
这种「零重力」的造型是许多人希望在冰冻发艺大赛达成的目标。然而,该造型需要温度下降到至少摄氏零下二十度才能让头发完全结冻。如果天气再暖和一些,无论再怎么努力塑造头发,到了工作人员替参赛者拍照时都可能会崩塌。随著气候变迁变得更加严重,人们参加这个比赛的梦想变得更有可能破灭。
