Hair-cutting ladies kept some of Nadal's hair

It's a good thing Rafael Nadal isn't superstitious. He'd be vulnerable to all kinds of magic. The Spanish tennis stud dropped by the Madison Avenue salon of Julien Farel, the official stylist of the US Open for the fourth consecutive year, for a haircut. "Some of the young women in the salon took some of Nadal's cut hair off the floor when no one was looking, to keep as souvenirs," said our source. "Can you imagine?" Locks of hair are often used by voodoo witch doctors when they cast their spells -- including love spells.
