Brushed and gorgeous but not stiff. I think it makes her even more beautiful because it's not perfect, the kind of hair any girl could have.
I admit I have a secondary reason to love her the most, I have always thought my mother looked like her. This is a photo of her from 1946, golden age of Hollywood.
While attending UNC Chapel Hill she was friends with Kay Kyser, who was an alum and was often 'home' when not touring. While he was home and playing a few local gigs she went on a couple of dates with his sidekick Ish Kabibble (who did not always appear with his bowl cut when not performing)
