In the late nineteen fifties and early nineteen sixties, women and girls in the UP churches I went to usually kept their hair long enough that it could be curled or rolled and come down to about the shoulder. Some wore bangs. "Long" hair for women was considered "long" because it was longer than the men's styles which were often butch or flat top or greased down and slicked back with a "wave" in the front.
