Demi Moore’s hair in ghost

Was there a better short hair style on a woman?

Audrey Hepburn owned the 50s pixie cut.

Wish there were more variety in women's hairstyles today. They’re all wearing the same long, parted hairstyle.

After the war everyone decided to cut their long hair off.

Most women can’t rock a short haircut without looking masculine. Demi and Audrey could because they were very beautiful.

In answer to your question, OP — yes.

Elevated her looks, made her stand out

In that film , I half expected Demi to work through her grief by attending a Bruce Springsteen concert where she would be whisked onstage and dance like a dork with the Boss.

she knew she couldnt look more femme than Patrick Swayze so she went in the opposite direction.

Many women are actually rocking short haircuts. They’re just aged 50+ so no one notices them.

Demi Moore isn’t that beautiful to me. She just has very sharp petite features so short hair works on her.

It’s more about bone structure than beauty

Winona Ryder sported a variety of short hair styles in the 1990s with aplomb.

Short hair really suited her

According to her autobiography, she had long hair when she nabbed the role in Ghost, so when she showed up on set to film, the director was more than a little taken aback by her new look.

Demi looks best with her “Indecent Proposal” bob.

In fact, many women look their best with a side-part, slightly-longer-than-chin-length bob.

Demi’s hair was a reverse mullet.

by Anonymousreply 17December 30, 2023 12:36 AM

After Ghost, every woman got that haircut.

I was in high school at the time, and guys hated it. "They look like dykes!" = direct quote from a jock friend of mine.

I remember Natalie Merchant got the cut circa 1993, and I was appalled because I thought she was immune from such trendiness.

R18 Natalie had a short Bob, not the Ghost haircut.

It suited her.

I’m pretty sure she just ripped off Linda Evangelista’s (then) new look.

Natalie chopped off her short bob and basically got the Ghost haircut, R22.

I always found her look more interesting than beautiful. She tried to get too hot with all the working out and I think it took away from the needy promiscuous prettier than most but not princess type that I think suited her best.

by Anonymousreply 26December 30, 2023 3:05 AM

R25 - Thanks. Natalie looked stunning with the crop.

The only performance of Moore’s I really admire is in the crime thriller MORTAL THOUGHTS.

She’s very dedicated in it, and had a good director.

I prefer Demi with long hair. I'm loving the tailbone-length straight look she's been rocking for years now.

She's very versatile with her hair, having been bald, long, short pixie, bob, blonde, black, brown, etc. over the years.

Long hair would have got caught in the potter's wheel.

I've always liked DL fav Bridget Fonda's hair in Single White Female. She had such beautiful facial features she even managed to make a mushroom hairdo look great. That same hair made Jennifer Jason Leigh look like shit, though.

R3, lucky you weren't around in the 1960s when 8 out of 10 women wore a short cut.

I thought Demi looked mediocre with the haircut. She looked better in the 80s and in Indecent Proposal.

by Anonymousreply 39December 30, 2023 6:33 PM

I hated the movie Indecent Proposal.

Short hair on women had a moment in the '90s.

Aging people, no matter their gender or non-gender, look better without a head that has old, long hair hanging off of it.

That said, it takes a very pretty, fine featured face with exquisite bone structure to pull off what Halle Berry, Hepburn and Moore achieved with their ultra-short pixies.

And in their heyday, Twiggy and Mia Farrow got by with it, too.

This right here by r16^

Long hair is only for those in their teens and 20s.

I remember how shocking Olivia's physical haircut was. Then how many girls got the cut. Them don't forget the Dorothy Hamill.
