The kiss curl style was worn by both men and women. It became a trademark of the singer
Bill Haley, who wore a large kiss curl over his right eye to divert attention from his left eye, which was blind. Other people known for their kiss curls included
Josephine Baker,
Diana Ross, and the fictional character
Superman. In early episodes of the TV drama series ''
Agatha Christie's Poirot'', Poirot's assistant,
Miss Lemon, portrayed by
Pauline Moran, appears with five kiss curls across her forehead. In the 1990s, kiss curls inspired the trend of
laid edges, notably worn by
Chilli in the girl group
TLC. ==See also==
