If you think your hair’s jaunty curl is avant-garde, the creations you’ll witness at Glynn Jackson’s Hairtopia will make you reconsider. Because unless you’ve ever had a toy helicopter launch from a crevice in your beehive, your hair is blasé, basic, and b-b-boring. Jackson has produced spectacles of hair fashion for the past 17 years, taking his legendary Golden Scissors Awards from the nation’s capital to Hong Kong, Korea, and the Dominican Republic. And now it’s Miami’s turn to spin its curling irons like batons and celebrate tresses at Hairtopia. Beginning at 6 p.m. at Miami-Dade County Auditorium, local hair professionals will go strand-to-strand, creating masterpieces and vying for more than $15,000 in cash and prizes. Tickets cost $40 from ticketmaster.com.

Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $16,750 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
