Looks like her head did a 360 for this shot. I don’t think this fashion statement caught on.

I can remember some of these product labels.

The hair dryers started to get more compact

I used to slavishly watch the Miss America pageants growing up but by 1964 my senses got the better of me and I was pretty much listening to black radio stations in Detroit rather than watching Miss America warble through a Broadway show tune.
I was very familiar with the haircare products that Miss America pushes here.
I love that all the poor runners-up got was a portable hairdryer. I got a very similar one the 1st day of Hanukkah that year, and I didn’t have to do all that training or slim down to stuff myself into a bathing suit.
