Jun 18, 2015 at 14:36 comment added Jeff @Daft: His hair is much less invulnerable than his skin.
Jan 9, 2015 at 11:56 comment added Daft how does his heat vision cut his hair but not burn his face?

Sep 6, 2011 at 17:46 comment added Jeff He also shaves in a similar manner in the novelization of The Death of Superman.

The assumption is that since his hair is as invulnerable as the rest of him, it takes something on his own level of power to cut or burn it. In theory he could do a haircut in the same manner, it would just take more than one reflector. Or he could make a set of shears out of the same metal. For other conundrums of the world of superheroes, I suggest you check out "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex". Various copies of it have been floating around the 'net for years. :)
