SOUTHFIELD (CBS Detroit) - The latest complaint among iPhone 6 owners on social media is the smart phone is allegedly ripping out chunks of hair.
An iPhone 6 Plus owner posted on 9to5mac.com complaining that when using the large smart phone, it would pull a chunk of hair when the user was making a call. The user initially thought their hair was sticking to the screen protector, but after further inspection, found their hair was stuck between glass and aluminum.
