"WHAT??" we can read Joy's lips as saying in one short clip. She holds her hands to her ears - which allow her bangs to be on full display. They flex a little, but hold solidly.
Only a rare tilt back of Joy's head seem to expose parts of her forehead - but the camera shot makes it hard for us to tell how much.
But in one musical sequence, Ellis gets daring - with several full ballerina-types spins! They begin like this, with the hair looking flawless...
The hair flies up in mid-turn! How will it come down?
Badly, sadly - as each turn ends with hair in her left eye. It bounces out quickly after the third one.
CONCLUSIONS: Joy was a "coming-of-age" cut for your webmaster. But we admit we gave up on her after a few episodes; the hair seemed a bit thin and impossible to move out of place. (And to be honest, we considered Martha Raye annoying.) Only decades later did we discover we quit too soon on this woman. The helmet can and could be beaten - but she may have been the only one who knew how to do it, as the turns showed.
We also didn't realize that Ellis apparently had other costumed roles in The Bugaloos, where we didn't recognize her. She had other roles in the 70s and 80s as well, with variations of this helmet look. We invites Hair Fan history buffs to look into Ellis. Did she have enough care to keep her hair impressive from career start to finish? The best Super-Styles can do it.
To see Ellis's hair in motion, watch a Facebook reel by Sid and Marty Krofft.
