"Evening Fashions for milady's coiffure drew plaudits as did this winning hairstyle by Raquel Adame, who holds her first place trophy won for this hairstyle on model Rene Bond, seated. Raquel, who has Raquel's Hairstyling salon in Oxnard, also took second in the Ventura County Hairdresser of the Year contest." -- Oxnard Press Courier, Oxnard, California, Sunday, March 9, 1969
I have no idea whatever happened to Raquel Adame, but Rene Bond went on to more illustrous things than just a hairstyle model. This may, however, be the very first instance of Rene working as a model. So that's pretty cool. This is one and a half to two years prior to Rene's more familiar modeling and film career. She is all of 18 years old in this photo.
The one standing up looks a bit like Sharon Mitchell, but that could be the result of the grain more than anything else.
