Coiffure

xoxoxoBruce · 12-13-2015, 11:23 PM

I've found women were pretty good at dating old photographs by the clothing and hairstyles. I think they are more conscious of those, as I'd be with a lady and run into another couple somewhere, then later meet up with friends and the girls would get into detailed Q & A about what the first couple were wearing. Whereas I might remember the color of his shirt, and certainly whether she had pokies or not, but that's about it.

I'd probably get a haircut if I was having trouble getting my hearing aids in and out, or trim the mustache when it started stealing my yogurt, but that's about it. But ladies were always embarrassed by old pictures on their badges at work when the hairstyle was ten or fifteen years out of style. The guard in the badge room said he had a handful who would lose their badge every time they changed hairstyle. He could tell by the picture on file and the regularity of loss.

Anyway, these pictures show the Victorian gave way to the softer, poofier, Edwardian styles.

I like the first two in the first row, the fourth from the left in the second row, and the last two in the third row.

Does that make me a bad person?

Nope, that's not what makes you weird.

Several of those look more like an exercise in structural engineering than a hairstyle.

Anyway, is that Amanda Knox in the bottom row, second from right?

In the old b&w western movies (30s-40s and to some extent the 50s) you could figure the year the flick was made by looking at the women's hairstyles. In the 30s and 40s, their hairstyles in the movie were the same as IRL. Quite often. Well, sometimes.
