Скачать или смотреть 1959: Hairdressing... for Men? | Mainly For Women | BBC Archive

"Being British, the gentlemen do not encourage conversation."

Mainly for Women pays a visit to Cyril Shire's hairdressing salon in Soho, to find out what type of hairstyle appeals to what type of man, and why. Do you wear your hair in the "boxer" style? Or do you prefer a "Davy" cut? Perhaps you're more of a dashing "Raffles" or "Henley" type? A man's hair can say a lot about him.


NB: The audio during the interview portions of this report appears to be out of sync, but in fact the interview audio differs somewhat from the images, and no amount of tweaking will make it sync up correctly. The audio was likely recorded after the pictures and overdubbed. Do not adjust your set!
