Re: The Dorothy Hamill 'Do
Fortunately, my mother was oblivious to trends in 1976 and I was not subjected to the Dorothy 'do. I wouldn't have let her cut it anyway. I had hair all the way down my back til 74 and then it was up to my neckline - modified pixie. I HATED it.
Since then I've mostly had it to my shoulders or lower. I did have it bobbed to just above the shoulder for about 4 years. Typical straight black Chinese hair. Still only a few hidden strands of gray, but not as dark as before.

Re: The Dorothy Hamill 'Do
In high school, most of us wore our hair straight and long
with a center part. I kept mine like that until around '77
when I impulsively cut it off neck-length, then went to the
beauty-shop for the first and only time for damage-control.
The beautician said she would give it the "mushroom" style.
After 3 days I decided I should have left it long. Now it is
again long, but I no longer dare to appear in public with it
loose because I look like a witch! In Houston you have to
be able to get your hair off your neck, so I braid it and put
it in a knot, though I sometimes consider cutting it all off
1/2 inch long and wearing a fashionable beret.
