Children's Hair Styles Influenced by Caroline
By BAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
New York (UPB - Another
Kennedy - Ciroline - is set
ting hur styles in the femin
ine world.
Sources in the children's
bartering field agree that not
itnce Shirley Temple s blonde
ringlets and Margaret O
Brlen's pigtails has any one
very young lady had so much
Influence on what other little
Iris are wearing in hairdos
"Let's iace it. Caroline's
the number one child in the
news,", said the styles direct
or for the Helena Curtis
Guild of Professional Beauti
cians. "She's bound to in.
fluence other children . , ,
er anyway, their mammas."
"What Caroline wears has
become a big factor," said a
pokesman for Best & Com
pany, a New York store
whoso- children's barber shop
trims between 40,000 and 50,-
000 heads per year. "Little
girls are getting away from
bangs."
Bore Hairdos Sam
The store's barber shop re
ported hairdos for small boys
unchanged, however - still
short, crew, and mannish
looking, even though Caro
lines baby brother John, Jr.,
in recent photographs has
hewn a healthy mop of long
hair.
Caroline's wearing a modi
fication of an American clas
sic for children - the Buster
Brown. The hair is parted on
the side and the long side is
held in place with clip or bar
rette. No bangs.
The true Buster Brown,
however, has a center part
with bangs. But both types
re cut chin length, are
srtralght, and turned under
lightly at the ends.:
Just who cuts Caroline's
hair is a well-kept Washing
ton secret. Pamela Turnure
ef the White House press staff
aid the subject was in "that
area" - meaning the private
lives of the Kennedy children.
Caroline's bob gets the en
dorsement of Gerald McDon
ald of Helene Curtis for its
simplicity and ease of care.
"These are what count in
children's styling," said Ger
ald, In a telephone interview
from his Chicago headquar
ters. The hair stylist, who has
held 183 demonstrations play
ing to live audiences totalling
250,000 so far tn 1962, always
Includes child models in the
shows.
Shaping Important
To Gerald, shaping is the
key factor in a good haircut
for a little girl. .
Cut to the way the hair
grows naturally - and this
direction will show when the
hair is damp - the "do" stands
a better chance of staying
neat. And small girls, as well
as their ' mothers, do care
about neatness and looking
pretty, said the stylist.
"Every mother looks for a
natural curl in a child's hair,'
he said. "They optimistically
hope . . .but I don't think lit
tle girls care about the curl
They're more interested in
bows and ribbons."
Gerald opposes permanents
for small girls because sim
plicity of styling is preferable
to a mass - of curls, and be
cause their hair isn't mature.
It has not developed the cen
ter core, or medulla, that
comes with growing up.
Plxle Style
He and the stylists at Best's
said after the Caroline side
part, the -next favorite style
for little girls is the Pixie.
The hair is cut in short, un
even layers and isn't parted,
but combed, like spokes of a
wheel, from the center crown.
This one does not lend itself
to ornamentation, but is easy
to keep, and Gerald said es
pecially becoming to little
brunettes.
Children's hair styles re
main in fashion, usually, for
decades, unlike those of
adults. One of the most en
during "dress up" styles for
little ladies is a slightly Vic
torian arrangement fashion
able for at least 60 years.
Strictly for long hair, it
sweeps up the face and catch
es with a ribbon or headband.
The hair then falls down the
back.
StralohUr Hair Smart
Until about 1850, say styl
ists at Curtis, the most popu
lar variation was for long,
sausage like curls falling
down the back. Now, straight-
er hair Is smarter.
Another popular "dressy'
do, said Best's, is the Top
knot - the long hair swept
up to the top of the head all
around and shaped Into a
flattened circle.
j Braids have been child's
hair style tor centuries ana
reached their peak in popu
larity in the 1940's when mov
ie moppet Margaret O'Brien
was stealing hearts on screens
across the country.
The Shirley Temple influ
ence showed In the 1930's,
when millions of little girls
hoping to emulate her, slept
every night on a headful of
metal curlers. Every morning,
then, doting mothers spent an
hour or more combing each
ringlet Into place. ,
"It will be a long time,"
said Gerald, "before we have
another ringlet era. Fortu
nately, for all concerned."

Pythian building Friday,
