The Hollywood Museum

1660 Highland Ave, Hollywood, CA 90028, USA

Art deco former cosmetics salon with color-coded makeup rooms and a basement horror-film prop collection.

This guide to the Hollywood Museum in Los Angeles opens in nineteen thirty five, inside a color-coded salon where a woman got sorted by the color of her hair and sent down a hallway toward a room built just for her shade. It follows Max Factor, the Polish immigrant who once dressed Russia's royal family, invented the word makeup, and built the color science behind stars like Lucille Ball and Jean Harlow. Listen for the original avocado-green room, built specifically for redheads.
