In the early 1950's the hairstyles still had influence from the previous decade of the 1940's. This handsome couple shows how men were masculine and women were feminine.

The husband has a strong square jawline and he is smiling with eyes rather than his mouth. His dark hair is slicked back on the sides in a neat manner. The top is longer and brushed back leaving some natural wave to the style. There is a somewhat side part but it is not defined and a few loops of hair are misplaced a bit for a not so perfect look. Most men used hair products or whatever could be found for styling purposes and may have included things such as Vaseline. Back then many folks were poor or at least not well off enough and had to make do with whatever was available. He is wearing a sharp looking dark double breasted suit with a white shirt and tie. It looks as though the fabric has some lighter flecks that resemble pin striping. This man's name was Bob and he was so in love with his wife Faye.
