Jane Fonda's Shag:


John Sahag was credited with inventing/transforming the ultimate in stylish hairstyles: Check out actress Jennifer Salt's wicked Shag in Woody Allen's "PLAY IT AGAIN SAM" 1972, & "SISTERS" 1973 with margot Kidder. Jennifer Salt would fly from L.A. to Sahag's NYC salon just to have Her shag trimmed & styled!! Another take/offshoot on the Jane Fonda version was Barbara Feldon' in the 1972 tv movie: "Getting Away From It All" cool!! La Fonda herself sported a longer cersion of Her "KLUTE" haircut in 1972's "TOUT VA BIEN" with Roger Vadim. I have a Haircutting book written/illustraded/drawn in 1976, by New York City Hairstylist, in which He showcases the "JANE FONDA SHAG"!!

I thought Jane Fonda was at the height of her beauty in this movie, which is one of my favorites. I loved her hair and her clothes--the clothes you could wear today.

Paul McGregor, a hairdresser who was located on St. Mark's Place in the East Village, NYC did Jane Fonda's shag. I went with my sister went to the salon because she wanted Jane Fonda's haircut. The East Village was not a great area at the time. It was kind of run down neighborhood but it was right near "The Electric Circus" which was a famous "hippie" nightclub/disco. Lots of bands like the Grateful Dead played there.
