The ‘shocking’ secret behind Marilyn Monroe and Rita Hayworth’s hairline
For ages, people have been conforming to the more acceptable beauty trends regardless of how unnatural or senseless they might appear. The long struggle to celebrate each person’s individualism and beauty has witnessed decades of conforming from the elites so that they could maintain their position and status. Even during Hollywood’s Golden Age, white privileges were considered supreme.
Margarita Carmen Cansino, the girl who later became known as Rita Hayworth, and even Marilyn Monroe underwent a painful surgery. They went through a year of an electrolytic hair removal method that involves shocking the hair follicles using metal probes. Shocking indeed.
