Barbra's hairdo

Ms. Streisand's reaction in front of the mirror at the Rainbow Room in NYC after seeing her disheveled hair was fantastic. Perfect comic timing and delivery. I wish she would do more comedies.

I agree...I remember distinctly how she sort of cocked her head when she saw herself, and with that huge, ridiculous black velvet bow all askew...it was very funny. Her comic timing is impeccable...probably thanks largely to her musical talent.

why due to her musical talent?

It is sad indeed that she isn't using this gift anymore like that.
If you watch Funny Girl it's full of these scenes.

It's one of the few moments of true slapstick in this film. Very funny.
