The statement continued, “The lucky friend who trimmed the Nirvana front man s iconic blond locks was an early confidant, Tessa Osbourne, who cut his hair in 1989 well prior to his Nevermind breakthrough while on the Bleach tour. Tessa presented the original lock to Seattle artist Nicole DePolo as a heartfelt gift after Kurt s passing, and she provided the original bag with handwritten provenance note, 29/10/89: Tess cut Kurt s hair in Birmingham, England, 27 Holy Rd., Handsworth, Birmingham B202BU. ”
