Does anyone wish Caroline had a different hairstyle?

I always felt like the low bun she wore was boring and really plain. Which was a shame because she had a really pretty face.

Her hair looked lovely when she wore it down for Chris the Handyman! Maybe Charles didn't inspire her to look better?

Yeah. I mean, I know buns were the style back then, but it still could have been a nicer bun like what Laura would do.

Same problem with Livvy on The Waltons. Michael Learned was a beautiful woman, but the severe hairstyle and plain clothing did her no favors. No wonder she left the show to do the medical drama series, Nurse.

Um. The married women were supposed to look a certain way.

Yeah, it's a real shame they had to hold back on their looks for their husband.

I liked her everyday bun but she looked better with it down at night. She was cute in her nightgown!
