I seriously doubt it. And I seriously doubt Neil Armstrong ever gave it a second thought either, until he learned the barber had sold this last batch he cut off.

But that's completely irrelevant to this case; I don't think anyone would particularly care if one's hair gets collected to make a wig out of it or not, and I doubt Armstrong would have minded if it really happened the way you're describing here. But it's not selling someone's hair in itself that's the issue here, it's selling someone's hair and making a lot of extra money over it because you're taking advantage of that person's status as a celebrity.
As far as I'm concerned, Chewie's points still stand. But then again, you didn't really seem to address them, except for his final remark that was more of a rhetorical question than a point anyway.
