The Ultimate Forum for Dusty Springfield Fans http://www.dustyspringfield.org.uk/forum/ Getting the hair right http://www.dustyspringfield.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=2049 Getting the hair right Page 1 of 1 by Corinna Posted: Thu Feb 03, 2011 1:08 pm A very enlightening blog entry on an issue I have often wondered. What's the difference between a beehive, a bouffant and a tease?? ----------- Tor and I were finishing up rehearsal the other night and he asked me. “So Sylv, he pulled out a Helen Shapiro CD, is this hairdo a beehive?” I told him no I think it’s a bouffant. A beehive would be more of a solid updo. The next week he said, “Thank you there is an internet forum for girl groups that I am on. They were calling her hairdo a beehive. I told them that I had heard it was a bouffant. I corrected them and they were very appreciative.” Then I started to doubt myself. I wondered if I am really right. I mean, I know what hair styles I like and what I call them when I am around my girlfriends, but what is the official name? So I thought I would go online and see what I could find. The internet was no help. All the pictures I found were confusing and calling the same hair style two different names. So I thought I’d send a note to my friend the drag queen Miss Perfidia in New York. She is the wig stylist featured in the movie Wigstock.

  • Hairstyling Module 1
    Hairstyling The Cultural Significance of Hair For humans, haircut, hairstyle, or hairdo normally describe cutting or styling head hair. Unlike other animals, human beings of many cultures cut their hair, rather than letting it grow naturally. Hair styles are often used to signal cultural, social, and ethnic identity. Men and women naturally have the same hair but generally hairstyles conform to cultural standards of gender. Hair styles in both men and women also vary with current fashion trends, and are often used to determine social status. There is a thriving world market in cut human hair of sufficient length for wig manufacture and for the production of training materials for student hairdressers and barbers. In less developed countries, selling one's hair can be a significant source of income — depending on length, thickness, condition, and color, wig makers have been known to pay as much as $40 for a head of hair. In the United States, cut hair of at least 10 inches (25 cm) length may be donated to a charity, such as Locks of Love. The remarkable head hair of humans has gained an important significance in nearly all present societies as well as any given historical period throughout the world. The haircut has always played a significant cultural and social role. © 2012 All Star Training, Inc. Page 1 • In the 17th century, Manchu invaders issued the Queue Order, requiring Chinese, who traditionally did not cut their hair, to shave their heads like Manchus. The Chinese resisted. Tens of thousands of people were killed due to their hairstyle.
