Early '50s hairstyles with the tight curls, poodle cuts and Mamie Eisenhower fringe bangs were hideous. By the mid-50s, though, women wore longer styles with softer waves. Watch older episodes of What's My Line? vs the later '50s. Dorothy and Arlene looked so severe and school marmish early on and then blossomed into glamour girls as the decade progressed.

I can't help but wonder if their shearing was part of returning women to their place by making them look like shit. Sophia Loren could wear a curly crop and be sensual and sexy.

Yes it was a late-40s trend that continued into the 50s. Even Katharine Hepburn, who rarely had really short hair (and later wore her long hair in an old-fashioned top bun), had a short haircut in State Of The Union and a very short one in Adam's Rib.

R105 Yes, but back then styles tended to be very uniform. Hemlines for ex. were all supposed to be so many inches high. Women used to measure with rulers. Things are completely different, now. I remember, as a kid, my friend and I used to laugh at a woman who wore her long hair in a braid pinned around her head, because any different style from what our moms and everyone else had (medium length, permed) was that unusual. Older women rarely dyed their hair - meaning, seniors. It was not done, in their day, so they didn't adapt. A lot of rigid styles dictated by fashion designers and Hollywood hairstylists.
Doris Day looked much better with short hair, though. In her first couple of pictures, with long hair, she looked like a horse. Marilyn Monroe always looked good with shorter hair, also.

Of the major stars of the golden era, Barbara, Jane and Irene Dunne where the three that could do pretty much any genre, although Barbara did a lot more westerns in any of the major female stars of that time.

R120, the Catholic star was Irene Dunne. Ann, Irene, Olivia De Havilland, and Louella Parsons attended the 1955 grand opening of the Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus and were invited to Jerusalem for a trek to the Holy Land. As the ladies were descending on a stopover in Lebanon, MGM tipped off the Lebanese press that their contract starlet, Ann, would be arriving. As they deplaned at 2am, the Lebanese press and photographers were there on the tarmac, snapping pics of Ann in her coiffed glory while Irene, Olivia, and Louella were makeup free and in curlers. Ann was whisked off to the hotel, leaving the three stranded. Hours later, a livid Irene rang up Ann, called her a little bitch several times, and told her she was no longer welcome to join them on their excursion.

I seem to recall Ann writing about getting the last laugh on the others on the tour when they all posed for a photographer that Ann knew or later found out had no film in his camera.

I remember reading a story from a guy, just a regular working man who had to go on a set (I forget the circumstances, actually) and got to go in Jane's trailer and see her in a sexy dress - I think the movie was Just For You. The reason I'm putting this here is because I remember he said she was drop-dead gorgeous and sexy, one of the best looking women he ever saw in his life. He was a straight guy and I doubt he cared what her hair looked like.
Wyman was both a cute and a sexy chick, and always looked hot in a strapless gown or bathing suit. In some movies she was required to look virginal, dowdy, or matronly, like Johnny Belinda, Miracle In The Rain, or All That Heaven Allows, but it doesn't take a lot of imagination to see beyond the costuming. Her short hairstyle may seem out of style now, but was her signature at the time. and she actually became a much bigger star with it, it made her distinctive. All lost on people in 2021/22.

R144 Only slightly related, I guess, but something I remember from Michael's book - as a young teen (I think) he slept on a sofa in the den while Patti and Ron Jr had their own rooms. One day builders came to put an additional room on the house and he assumed it was going to be a bedroom for him. It wasn't, it was an extra room for Nancy, and he continued to sleep on the sofa.

I was just watching a movie on TCM with a pretty blonde in it. I wondered who it was and learned it was Jane Wyman at age 23. I was so shocked I started looking up photos of her, wondering why she later adopted that hideously ugly hair style. I came here to start a thread about it and searched to see if there was anything on her already. What a surprise to find this thread on the same topic, and started so recently, too.
I read she was put in foster care at a young age. Who knows what that was like. I never thought she was attractive because of her hair. But instead, learned she was quite beautiful when younger.

Jane was a bottle bleach-blonde with dark brown eyes, I don't think it did much for her, and her acting career didn't take off until she went darker for The Lost Weekend. She went blonde again briefly for The Yearling, but that was about it until she was on TV and older.

She actually added rather than subtracted years to her real age so she could work in Hollywood on her own. For years it was thought that Jane was born in 1914, when she was born three years later in 1917. Ida Lupino did the same thing. She was born in 1918 but added five years to her age. She was only 15-16 when she started working in movies.
