EDITORS COMMENTS
In a desperate attempt to keep his girlfriends from being stolen away at dances, Ian Newman, a car salesman in Hounslow, sought the help of hairdresser Len Pountney. The ingenious solution? A long pigtail made from Ian's own hair that connects him to his current flame, Gloria Wootton, a 15-year-old florist. Now inseparable wherever they go, this unconventional couple has become an amusing spectacle on the high street. Ian had grown tired of losing his love interests to other men who couldn't resist their charm. But with this unique hairstyle invention by Len Pountney, he finally found a way to ensure Gloria stays by his side. Their linked appearance has sparked curiosity and laughter among locals as they stroll hand in hand through town. This humorous twist on romance showcases the creativity and determination of individuals during the swinging sixties era. It captures the spirit of young love and highlights how people were willing to go above and beyond for their relationships. The photograph taken today in November 1969 perfectly encapsulates this unusual yet endearing bond between Ian Newman and Gloria Wootton. As they navigate through life together, connected by Ian's remarkable pigtail creation, their story serves as a reminder that love knows no bounds.
