Would you trust a robot to cut your hair with scissors?

Would you trust a robot to cut your hair with scissors?

Finnish photographer Markku Lahdesmaki would. His robots can be seen trying to make calls at payphones, just trying to get some laundry done or even stumbling home drunk after a wild night. Silly robots. They think they're people. Check 'em out in the gallery below.

You can buy the pieces for yourself, but at a hefty price. The offerings begin at $900, and cost up to $4,800 — and that's for a crocodile that isn't even robotic!
