Sadik Cesur believes that a haircut could save the Turkish lira.

He's not addressing bondholders, and casts no aspersions on the country's ability to repay its debts. Cesur is a hairdresser, who's posted a sign in his window offering a free trim to anyone who comes to his shop with a receipt proving they've switched $300 dollars into local currency.
