DALLAS—Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on May 8 got his hair cut at a Dallas salon that became a rallying cry for conservative protests against lockdown orders in Texas after the owner refused to shut down and ultimately went to jail.
Cruz, who spent two weeks in self-isolation in March after saying he came into contact with someone diagnosed with COVID-19, said he flew up from Houston to get his first haircut in three months at Salon à la Mode. He did so one day after its owner, Shelley Luther, walked out of jail after a court ordered her to be released.
