This is the Mary Johnston Cut by Charles Booth, owner of La Coupe (then known as Le Cartier.) The great summer style was a big sensation and considered very daring then, around 1969.
The supershort soft brush cut rippled up and back, ending in a delicious tiny tail curving at the neck. It was ideal for those with coarse or slightly curly hair and a great summer style still. This story – and photo – was given a full page in the Montreal Star, big daily newspaper at the time.

Your photo has a little magic, Bob. Very simple but she does look more than great!
Mary looks great! How nice to remember after all these years.
Hope she is well too. Good work Helen.
