She wants to dance like Uma Thurman—and she wants her bangs as well. Luckily, John Travolta and Buzz Aldrin can work a miracle, work a miracle.

Well, kinda.

Last month, the actor hosted a charity auction at the Apollo/Saturn V Center at the Kennedy Space Center. The event benefitted the famed astronaut's new ShareSpace Foundation. The 85-year-old Aldrin, who was the second man to walk on the moon, and Travolta, 61, danced with two women—specifically, the Twist-reminiscent routine the actor and Uma Thurman danced in Pulp Fiction.

One of the ladies, Mary Matulka, and her husband, Jerry, had offered $4,000 for the privilege and after it ended, she made a bizarre offer—they would pay an extra $1,000 to have both Aldrin and Travolta cut her hair, Florida Today reported.

"She wants bangs like Uma Thurman had in Pulp Fiction," speaker Seth Green said, as seen in a video posted on the foundation's YouTube page.

"This could totally get crazy, guys" he continued, cracking up. "Does anybody have any beautician experience?"

Using what looked like nail scissors, Travolta and Aldrin got to work. The result? Let's just say Matulka may have needed to make a follow-up appointment at a real salon.

"Oh my gosh, you guys," Green said. "That totally just happened. That was amazing. That was incredible."

"You have an opportunity for Buzz Aldrin and John Travolta to cut your hair," Matulka told Florida Today. "Can anyone say that?"
