This picture of a little girl from the 1950's is a nice example of a typical kids hairstyle from that era.
This black and white photo shows a grade school age gal wearing a headband with a woven design. This accessory was often used to hold the hair back and away from the face. She has wavy brown locks that are short and cut above the shoulder. She was probably dressed in her Sunday best on this day.

This is Eva Green's version of a bouffant updo. Her bangs are pulled straight back and worked into the bouffant which has some decent height on top.
The sides are pulled back and kept close to the scalp. She has medium/dark brown hair and a fair complexion. Her eyes are blue grey and match her high neck dress. This shot was taken at "Dark Shadows" Los Angeles Premiere. Eva plays Angelique Bouchard who placed a curse on Barnabas Collins (Johnny Depp) which turned him into a vampire in the 18th century. The original soap opera, which the movie is based on, aired from 1966 to 1971 so this retro 60's beehive hairstyle is perfect for the occasion.

This young woman is posing for a promotional shot behind the film counter. This is an actual vintage photo from circa 1953.
She has short bangs that have been pin curled into place. The sides are curled toward the back and bobby pinned into place above the ear. She has a side part and medium brown hair that is cut short in the back. Women of this era usually did their styling at night with wet hair and then in the morning combed it into place. This gal has very fine hair which meant that keeping it short helped to prevent it from looking too thin.
