It's just every song I've heard have strong Soprano parts, or maybe I just hear them better? But beautiful songs nevertheless, I just drink my tea and get in where I fit in
! (I am also a very deep alto, like an alto 2/contralto, so even an average soprano sounds EXTRA high to me!)

I imagine that smooth, shiny hair in the movies was, like them, an illusion!

Sleeping in rollers was normal to me as a child! Most of the Black women/girls I grew up around (during the 80's/90's) wore rollers. I'd considerer doing it now, but my hair doesn't hold much of a curl with rollers. Most it does is a deep wave.
I did execute a roll for a campus function a few years ago, and it didn't turn out too badly. (The ball had a theme around that decade so I went all out!) I was rushing, but I had practiced the style a few days prior to see how long it would take me. My hair was also shorter, so now that it's to my midback I'll have a bit more to work with! I'll just need millions of bobby pins!
