Early 1960's makeup & hair?

Hi - I was wondering if anyone can give me a link to websites showing stage or "street" makeup & hair from the "pre-hippy" 1960's. Ones I have visited so far don't have much in the way of images...

Thanks!

Hi Derek -

I did manage to find some references: public libraries had a few hair & fashion history books (better info in the cultural rather than theatrical ones, I thought), and I did Google searches www.google.com on ** 1960's + hair ** or ** style ** or ** fashion ** or ** makeup **. Took a few tries but got some reasonable material. http://www.costumes.org/history/100pages/1960links.htm
was a good one.

Lastly - I thought the movie Blow was not bad for the fashions, or you could go to old movies from that era for ideas as well.

Good luck!

Lisa
