Mary Loses her Locks in Chicago. Chicago, June 22-28:- The beauty experts in Chicago are not so bad after all. Ask Mary Pickford. She has traveled abroad recently and is now on her way back to Hollywood with her husband. When they arrived in Chicago today, the husband, Mr. Douglas Fairbanks went to visit the National Open tournament at Olympia Fields and Mary started for the beauty parlor. Our photo shows Mary Pickford getting her curls cut off while waiting for another train to take her away from Chicago Today. [Note: This snipe is actually incorrect. Mary had her hair cut in New York by Charles Bock (or simply, Charles,) but these publicity photos were seemingly shot in a barber shop (George Gayton is reportedly the barber) in the Hotel Sherman in Chicago.]
