A Woman Having Her Hair Cut in the 'Victory' Style, 1942. Britain during the Second World War. 'The "Victory" hairstyle for women. Not so much a style really as a chopping off to prevent the locks being caught up in the works. For the women who "worked the machines that made the things that were going to win the war" didn't have much time for frills'. From "Time To Remember - The End Of The Beginning", 1942 (Reel 3); documentary film about events of 1942 and America's entry into the war.
