First Lady Hair

Let's play a little game. It's called match the First Lady to the hair. Alternative game: which First Lady had the coolest hair? My votes go for Ellen Arthur.

Again, yay for the blog! And this just shows how curls made way for waves which fell off to straight hair. Bring back curl love so I can get some credit! My faves are Elizabeth Monroe and Louisa Adams (but maybe I just also like their hair accessories) :)

You know, I also of course like Letitia Tyler's hair. I really do like it though. I do NOT like that harlot Julia Tyler's hair. Ugh. Mini braids -so low class.
