Prison escapee Aaron Forden, who's been on the run since Monday morning, may well have changed his appearance in the past few days by visiting an unsuspecting hairdresser.
Forden escaped from the Mt Eden Corrections Facility at about 2.20am on Monday. The 30 year-old is not averse to having his naturally red hair dyed in order to disguise himself.
Detective Sergeant Iain Chapman says Forden also escaped from custody in 2008 and, on that occasion, went to an Auckland hair salon where he had his beard, eyebrows and hair dyed blonde.
"He may well be up to his old tricks so, if anyone in the salon business recognises him or recalls having given him an appointment in the past three days, they should contact Auckland City CIB or call 111 directly."
