Re: help..I lost the hair

To me....
Looks like what we call a "bouffant"
I couln't find the exact style but it's something between

and

http://www.wtv-zone.com/dpjohnson/be...madlynrhue.jpg


It's typical of the 60's look (see Jackie Kennedy, Brigitte Bardot, style in the "Invaders" or early "Columbo")

hers have curly stylings on the top/side with an sparkling attach probably made with black and white pearls.

Not sure it might be a simpler bun with some hair left dropping behind. Depends on the date...For some reasons (Clothes) It looks more like a 80's style. But it's hard to say....

as a matter of fact it is from the 80's 1987
when I try to decide where his hair ends and begins ...I dont at all get the result to look realistic

Something like in the movie "The Wedding Singer", I guess.
