ALL: Hair That Makes (or Breaks) the Man


Recommended Posts

With people talking about Jason Thompson's shabby, shaggy 'do for his new role that makes him look older/dirty/etc., what other guys (or gals?) can routinely go from chic to shabby with a quick snip of the scissors, razor blades, etc.? 

 

The first two that come to mind for me are:

Yes, Joshua Morrow changes drastically when he does that ridiculous long-haired, unshaven look. Yuck.

 

Much like his onscreen daddy. For me there has always been a huge difference between this

A generalization, sure, but it's interesting how long hair seems to age men while short hair seems to age women.  Years of watching OLTL and AMC in particular, I noticed how the longer hair pulled down young men's faces while the shorter cuts looked fresh/squeaky/youthful.  DF, JPL, JY come to mind...

 

I loved RS's bountiful auburn weave of the early '90s.  She and SL both went shorter that decade, and while they were still beautiful, I think "bigger" hair always looked better on them, like JW mentioned above.

Jane Elliott, Linda Dano, and Louise Sorel sure rocked the hell out of Sassoon cuts.  Gillian Spencer, Jennifer Bassey too...

With some ladies, a shorter 'do helps maintain a more youthful appearance, I think. In Susan Lucci's case, I think she made a good decision in the mid/late 90's to cut her hair for awhile, because it was starting to look thinner. 

 

I wonder how Marj Dusay would've looked had she grown her hair back out in the early 00's.

    • In an interesting turn of irony, when Somerset came onto the airwaves in 1970... it ran against Dark Shadows and beat it in the ratings fairly quickly.  Then when Edge of Night moves to ABC in December 1975 and put against Somerset, the slow ratings rise that Somerset was allegedly having in late 1975 is derailed. From reading the write ups of the final year, the show dropped the May/December romance.. which viewers enjoyed and was getting the show some good press... the original cast member was sidelined due to medical issues, and the show featured pure crime stories without any balance. I think the crime focus was an attempt to compete with EON.  However, people that were into crime stories/mysteries weren't going to tune into Somerset for their fix.. not when Edge of Night was known for that.. and that show was running on a high quality wise when the network switch occurred.

    • Erwin Nicholson's last episode as SFT ep was 11/21. Whitesell started 11/22/85. Erwin was on board from March 8, 1985 so less than 9 months. Whitesell lasts six months (approximately) before P&G moved him to AW for two years where he primarily worked with DePriest. Whitesell was replaced on Search by no daytime experience David Lawrence who closed out the show's last six months.

    • I assume in name only?  One Stormy Night wasn't exactly steamy.  If it's a literal throwback then Stephanie's writing about sexy times her own Uncle was having lol. Since I am going to surmise it's just a throwback to the name, Night Sins and Winter Heat both sound sexier.  Just saying.  I swear Jamey (and Ron) just google things and land on the first thing they like and decide it's a good throwback to history without watching it.
    • I usually don't want Tide placement in the middle of an intense sad scene, but this is an interesting point

    • Thanks!   Was anyone watching during this time? Wondering how Peggy’s rape played out onscreen. It just seems cruel to subject the Brooks family to this trauma a 2nd time.   Feels like the writers have already given up on the character of Jennifer, even though she sticks around another year-plus. She should be a passionate and fierce protective mother, but instead she seems just reactionary (and not even mentioned in this recap) This was also the case in ‘73 when Chris was raped. The writers are definitely more invested Stuart as the Brooks parent.
