Lil' Blonde Darling: Supergirl!

Blonde Beauty Icon Supergirl

Unlike other superheroines like Wonder Woman or Batgirl, who's costumes have pretty much stayed the same for decades.....Supergirl was a fashionista! Always one to follow the latest trends in superhero couture, she changed her look every few years to reflect the constantly evolving cultural fashion aesthetic . Blondes like to shop. What do you expect? First introduced in 1959, Supergirl was the long lost cousin of Superman and they had the same powers. In her secret identity of Linda Lee Danvers, Supergirl wore a brunette wig to disguise herself. Later in the series, she used a special comb to change the molecular structure of her hair to switch from curly blonde to straight brunette! WORK!!!
