The poof wasn't just a Pentecostal thing, really. On another message board (not religious) people were posting photos of themselves from the 80's. Most of them had big 'poofs' in front. The hair was cut, but it was styled to be big poofy bangs. It was just an 80's style.

Glenda B., I'm sorry if that offended you. It wasn't intended to offend, it was humor.

Not sure why you took it personally, as you can see from Jaxfam6's comment; it was directed to Dora. My remark, BTW, was a direct quote of Dora's, which is why I used it.

Double ditto.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess.

Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

I remember sometime after I graduated from JCM going back to one night of the music conference there and being amazed at the "poofs" (Southern spelling vs. your high society "pouf").

Apparently what had started out as small appendages had grown and the girls were trying to outdo each other by the size of them. They looked like aliens. I bet most of them are mortified now when they look at pics from then.

I dunno - there's some pretty wild do's out there still! The big rolls and especially the roll at the top of their forehead that looks like bangs gone bad!

We were looking at six years worth of JCM yearbooks this weekend at Sherri's - - oh my, some of those pictures are something else!

Yes - I would tend to agree - - pretty silly looking for sure.
