Dr. Leona Hartley, a sociologist of subcultural rituals, explains: "Hair is one of the last truly organic, uncontrollable aspects of the human body. By centering a gala around it—the messy, the curly, the unshaven—the Private Society is reclaiming biological authenticity. The 'w Exclusive' tier takes it further. It’s about leaving a literal mark, not a digital one." The 2023 event concluded at 5:00 AM with the "Great Thaw"—a breakfast of bone broth and wild mushrooms served on slabs of Himalayan salt. As dawn broke over Los Angeles, members of the "w Exclusive" cohort stumbled out, their tiny new tattoos hidden beneath collars, their clothes smelling of campfire and pine. a very hairy christmas private society 2023 w exclusive

But will there be another "w Exclusive" layer? Given the demand, the answer is almost certainly yes. Just remember: next year, when you see the envelope made of recycled bark paper arrive at your door, don’t shave. Don’t polish. Don’t smooth over. The 'w Exclusive' tier takes it further

If you are reading this and feeling a pang of FOMO, take heart. The Private Society is nomadic. Rumors for the 2024 theme are already circulating: "A Very Hairy Christmas: The Yeti Chapter."

The mandate was "High Feral." Think floor-length beaver coats over bare chests. Think beard oils from forgotten apothecaries. Think stylists who spent three hours making hair look perfectly wind-whipped. Women (and men) sported dramatic merkins over couture gowns. Mustaches were waxed into intricate spirals. Chest hair was dyed gold or silver.

If you have to ask what it means, you likely weren’t on the list.
