Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Pompadour

This style appears to re-emerge through the ages. It was part of the "Gibson Girl" look of 1890s and continued until World War 1 in the United States. It came back again the the 1940s. Elvis Presley and other early male rock-and-roll stars sported this look in the 1950s.

2. I am a young male servant in a castle. My hair style reflects my position. It has come through the ages. What is it?

Answer: Page Boy

A page boy was a medieval Earth lad (around seven years old) sent for service to a nobleman for education. The hair-style is commonly known as the "bowl cut." (Yep...put a bowl on the head and cut around it. Bangs in the front and short in the back.)

The other foils are true occupations in a nobleman's manse.

3. The Europa salon would be happy to create the following hair-styles for your date save one. Which could we NOT provide?

Answer: Hennin

A Hennin is that funny cone-shaped hat that was worn "backward, tilted at an angle" with a veil hanging at various lengths by noble women from the 1430s and beyond. (Little girls that play "princess" love to wear these costume hats.)

A Tonsure is that bald patch typically seen in old Robin Hood movies as worn by Friar Tuck. (With no disrespect, it was/is part of some religious brotherhoods.) The Coronet and French are both type of hair braids.

A French Braid is a lifting hair-style that involves intricate and beautiful interweavings.

A Coronet of Braids is a lovely hair style that coils braided hair on top of the head and is sometimes seen in Earth's Germanic areas. However, never confuse this with the musical instrument "Cornet." (The infamous interstellar war "Styles versus Scales" began over just this issue.)

Answer: One that piles long hair up on the head.

This hair-style piles long hair on top of the head and points it backward - thus making it look like a beehive. Margaret Vinci Heldt from the USA won a contest in 1954 for her design for this style for the "new decade." (Amy Winehouse was famous for her take on this 'do.)

Answer: Mohawks

This interesting 'do was a style of the Mohawk Native Americans in upper New York state. It was later popularized by punk rockers in the 1970s and singers such as Alicia Keys and Travis Barker. The Mohawks did not shave their hair but rather plucked it out to achieve this look. Who says men don't suffer for beauty?

Answer: Pigtails

Pigtails involves hair that is indeed divided into two parts in the center and clipped or braided behind the ears. (I had fun with the other foils.)

Answer: Pony

Yes...a pony is a bit different than a horse. A pony-tail is a hairstyle that pulls the hair back from the crown and secures it in the back of the head. From then it can be styled in many different ways.

Answer: High and Tight

High and Tight is a type of buzz cut. It is a military cut that keeps the sides and back cut extremely close to the temples (high) but leaves the hair on the crown of the head longer to support the weight of the combat helmet (tight).

**The "tighty and whitey" on the head answer just makes me laugh!**

Answer: Leia Organa

The funny hairstyle belongs to Princess Leia, as played by Carrie Fisher. Apparently, she really disliked her 'do. The other foils are actually characters in the "Star Wars" saga. **You must love the rodete reference -"Wheels on her head" is funny in many ways!**

10. Some hair-styles are historically important. According to the Old Testament Book of Judges (16:19), Samson loses his strength when his seven (what) are cut off?

Answer: dreadlocks

Dreadlocks are matted coils of human hair left to twist around themselves (usually known as the natural, organic or freeform method.) According to the Christian Bible, after deceiving Samson twice, Delilah enticed him to tell her the secret of his strength. She then called for servants of the Philistines to cut off his seven dreadlocks (braids) which robbed him of his strength. He had a mighty story involving blindness and a temple after this betrayal.
