    Hair dye - vintage style

    I do know that Jean Harlow had to wear wigs because of the damage. She used a combo of bleach, peroxide and soap flakes that was actually painful. :confused:

    My goodness, Zemke, thank you for that! :) I took a really close look at the original, now that I have some pics of Jinx from you thoughtful fellas, and I do believe it is her. Thank you, all of you, I appreciate it! :eusa_clap

    Can You Identify Her?

    Here's a pic of my grandfather's unit back in WWII. Sadly, he died when I was 7, and I never got a chance to ask him about his experiences. My grandmother, though, had a wonderfully detailed scrapbook...with some exceptions. This is one of them. lol Does anyone know who the "famous lady"...

    Happy 100th Louise Brooks

    She was a tough cookie. With all that implies. Her life story is well summed up in a famous quote of hers: "I like to drink and f***". Brilliant writer, stunning actress, and impetuous woman-child all in one. Amazing. :)

    Vintage Manicures

    Novella, bless you for posting this: For whatever reason, I have no half-moons on my nails. My doctor told me it was just an idiosyncracy I have (sometimes it can be indicative of a medical problem). I want to try the bare half-moon look but didn't know if I could without looking like a...
