Mayfair, London.
L/S of beatnik girl, Stephanie Beaumont, walking down a London street clad in leather jacket and jeans. Narrator tells us that she's "... passing a Mayfair beauty parlour, where smart chic women pretty themselves up. No place for her - or is it ?." She looks at the entrance of the beauty parlour, stubs out her cigarette and enters. M/S of Stephanie being seated in a very posh looking parlour. Two beauticians stand over her deciding what they can do with this beatnik. C/U of eggs being cracked open and put into a bowl, the narrator informs us that they are not to provide the beatnik with a "...a good square meal .." but to make "...a lather that will condition your hair." We next see Stephanie's head over the back of a sink as the egg yolk in rubbed in.
M/S Stephanie walks into shot aided by two beautician assistants. Her hair is now in curlers and net, she lies down on a couch and is covered by a blanket. Now the real treatment begins. We see various C/U shots of Stephanie lying on the couch. She is first treated to a face massage, then pads are placed over her eyes and then the plastic mask is added. We see an assistant rubbing and brushing various liquids and creams into Stephanie's face. Which we are told are are actually ".. anti wrinkle lotion and warm wax..." The mask is removed, and she is then treated to an "oxylation spray" before shiny pink lipstick is added.
C/U shot of Stephanie's reflection in the mirror, her hair is now in a bouffant style and is being given the finishing touches by an assistant. Hairspray is added - Stephanie smiles obviously pleased with her new hair do. M/S Stephanie walks into a very stately looking room with a large chandelier hanging from the ceiling. She is wearing a very glamorous shiny looking outfit. She talks with an assistant perhaps discussing about her new fashionable look. L/S She places a shawl around her shoulders and begins to walk downstairs and smiles. The transformation from beatnik to beatnik beauty.
Note: this is a FAB story - JH.

    Everyone who says they made her look like a grandmother is thinking from a modern point of view. THAT was the style for the 60s, it was considered fashionable. Now it's the same people who still wear those styles who are old ladies now. They didn't turn her into a frumpy old lady they turned her into someone fashionable with the hair and style of clothes women would wear back then.

    I thought they should have kept her hair simple in the front. She was beautiful in just a towel wrapped around her hair; if they had just pulled her hair back and kept the fancy stuff in the back, it would have been 10x better. It's almost like they tried to hide her face for some reason. Whatever they did changed the whole shape of her face, and not for the better.

Her only "beatnik" insignium was perhaps her peace-sign neck pendant.
