Belle Colour
Woman's Weekly: 19th April 1969
A bank holiday blast from the past for you. I don't think I've seen any episodes of The Avengers with Linda Thorson, but she must have been reasonably popular, judging from this ad. Of course, Belle Colour is still going strong, and still blethers on about the 'natural look' it gives you.
Ironically, according to Wikipedia, Linda Thorson's hair was bleached blonde for the show, but became so damaged by the process that she had to wear wigs!
I love the way 'magics' and 'natural look' are in quotes to make it clear that it is not magic and that the ultimate look is not natural!
Oh, and I am sure I have seen at least one Avengers episode with Linda where her hair was dark.
