-VERONICA LAKE-
Visits the US Air Force
(1942)

‘Lake’s blonde mane was constantly reported on from coast to coast, revealing how many hairs she had, how they fell, and how long they were from front to rear. So many fans copied the “Lake Look” that eventually the federal government asked Lake to cut off her long hair to inspire safety concern among the nation’s female defense factory workers who sometimes got their hair caught in machines. Near the end of the war, Lake complied, but her patriotism seemed to doom her. Shorter hair was unbecoming to Lake, and her choice of hairstyles was even more unfortunate. Her career declined steadily, and after a series of film roles chosen for the money, she left Hollywood.’
