Her father's youthful apprentice is in love with her and her hair. They become engaged. Billy, who has a weakness for hair, is ensnared in the wiles of another charmer, who wears a great deal of store hair. He wonders why May does not fix her hair as prettily as Madge does. Madge is an artful young lady and soon has Billy tagging after her. Her hairdresser, however, gets after Madge for the hair goods she has not paid for. Madge refuses to pay because the hairdresser has turned her hair green. The case is brought into court, and by a remarkable coincidence, Billy is summoned to serve on the jury. The judge orders Madge to prove her assertion that the hairdresser had turned her hair green. She pulls off all her false hair to show him, and Billy learns a few things about girls and hair that sends him back to May ready and willing to eat his humble pie.
