This is the most unbelievable kiddie picture ever! I’ve never known any parent to give their child an adult hair-do. It’s clearly a 5 year old girl with a beehive. This is stunning. What is that big, puffy princess doll thing in the background? I wonder what it’s hiding?

Holy moly! She looks exactly like one of those Kleenex cover heads only bigger and more stuffed. https://www.awmok.com/2011/05/20/allee-willis’-kitsch-o’-the-day-–-kleenex-girl-head/
I’m absolutely crazy about her little toys, both of them. And you can’t help but love a gal who keeps a balloon on her bed.
My new dream in life is to find this little girl’s family scrapbook in a thrift shop one day soon.

I think you could stuff your pyjamas in those! I love everything about this pic! The cat, the press board wall hangings. Her hair – the look on her face! (She must have been a VERY well-behaved patient girl for that ‘do to become the perfection it is!) AND – she has a (gasp) CANOPY BED! And – and – it’s French Provincial!! My true heart’s desire!
I’d love to know who she grew up to be. And if she’s still rocking that ‘do. I had a friend who’s mother NEVER gave up her Beehive until she died in the late 1980’s.

I didn’t even notice the French Provincial CANOPY BED I was so busy looking at everything else!

And the canopy is pink. Sigh. I would drool with desire everytime I saw one in the Sears or Wards Catalogs.

I used to be obsessed with canopy beds when I was wee lad. Pink canopy bed, pink sheets, pink walls. Yes, I would think this little lady loved pink.

This picture KILLS me. When I was 9, I used to get terrible tangles in the back of my hair. I was taken by my mother to her salon and given the EXACT same hairstyle! I was overweight, had 3 normal siblings, all with normal kid hair. THEN, for further torture, we went shopping at the Topanga Plaza, where I was gawked at by EVERYONE of every age! This was in 1968, when long, straight hair was the norm. It was SO traumatic, and years before I found drugs!!!
I hope this child is sitting in a meeting right now, and not judging a child beauty pageant!

Ha! Love your comment. Of course we would kill to see any photos you have of that period of hair for you. We would praise it here, not gawk!

Suzette, did you wear knee high socks and little mary-jane shoes?
What did your pop say about your hair back then?
