I keep seeing that commercial for the law firm of Elk and Elk. I don’t know what they specialize in professionally (probably personal injury), but do know they specialize in bad comb-overs and odd haircuts. That is completely obvious.
How can anyone take them seriously? They give a stern stare at the camera… and I want to chuckle.
Who else in Cincinnati has bad hair? Post your nominations in the comments section.

Ken Broo should always be a nominee. Is there a Lifetime Achievement Award?
No real nominations, but I thought the same thing about that commercial.
Sidebar: I keep stumbling over your name thinking that you’re an old co-worker Joe Wassel. Anyway, keep up the good work!
I think sometimes that the one guy was seriously injured by a bad barber! I wonder if he sued? Lol! I always chuckle at that commercial, too, because the gravity of the cases they handle is disrupted by the Shemp-like hairdo. It’s OK to be bald, guys. Really, it is.
I though these two were Cleveland lawyers as I see them on our local TV station as well. For the money they’re making he could afford hair plugs.
I can’t even listen to commercial once it’s on,too fixated on the hair!
