Hair Bangs
Why do I get headaches when I let my bangs grow too long?
———- from Kitty Evans ofOmaha, NB
You’re suffering from a condition known as the Veronica Syndrome. Although it wasn’t well known in comic book circles, Betty’s dark-haired rich girlfriend suffered from intense migraine headaches. She hoped, fleetingly, that Archie or Reggie or Jughead could divert her from this pain but was unsuccessful. The only cure would have consisted of simply cutting her bangs — something Veronica was unwilling to do. It seems Veronica had no forehead — a condition far more grotesque than Veronica Syndrome. So seek professional help if you wish but be prepared to face an ugly truth about yourself that may make a simple headache look like a picnic.
