The hairs will laid out in a violet box. Other items up for auction is the black ensemble worn by Monroe in Some Like it Hot, a tube of her Revlon lippy, a pair of sequinned gloves she donned in The Seven Year Itch and several of her handbags.
Monroe would have turned 90 in June. She committed suicide in 1962 following a lengthy battle with addiction. She remains today one of the biggest pop-culture icons.
