Even with all the curling sometimes a perm (permanent wave)
was required. Many of us dutifully sat in the kitchen while Mom annoited our
hair with the ghastly smelling solutions. And asked repeatedly, "is it time
yet." Time that is, to rinse it out!
Ever ready to suffer for the cause
of soft feminine looking Fifties styles, after the perm, we still had to roll,
curl our hair. Why? Because the natural, unfettered curl look of today would
have seemed wild and unruly back then.

The poodle frenzy of the Fifties
gave birth to a hairstyle - namely, the poodle cut. No better example can be
found than the hair of Lucille Ball.
