Mythological monsters with snakes for hair

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gorgons

(Other definitions for gorgons that I've seen before include "Mythical Greek sisters whose look turned people to stone" , "fierce women" , "Monstrous sisters" , "Three winged sister monsters with 'hair' of writhing snakes" , "Ugly sisters" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
