hair-&-hairstyles: "Can I have it just like the picture?"

Here's a cut from the archive.

  1. That's funny and I will tell you a story. My very good friend owns a hair salon. He said he always discourages clients from bringing in a photo of someone else's "do" as it is 100 percent probable that his client's hair does not have the same texture, growth pattern, etc. as the person in the photo and there is no way he can replicate what they want on their head.

    1. It must be difficult....chaps used to request a "Tony Curtis" back in 50s/early 60s...I think the Fab Four changed all that and folk visited the barber less frequently.

  2. I feel I know the "models" but cant quite figure it out? Would one be better off in a leopard skin pillbox hat?
