With their flawless makeup and perfectly set hairstyles, the ladies of Mad Men never fail to impress (even though everything might not be quite as pristine in their personal lives). Drama aside, each week, fans of the show delight in glimpsing back into the lives of '60s-era movers and shakers. And just as costume designers help bring a script alive by outfitting stars with fashions to suit their characters' personalities and circumstances, hairstylists and makeup artists are tasked with creating specific looks to reflect a mood.

Season six of Mad Men premieres here in Australia on Monday on Showcase (fast-tracked from the US!), so to celebrate, we're taking a look back at the fabulous bouffants and magnificent makeup of the mid-century beauties on the series. From Peggy's big chop to Joan's signature updos, see the style evolutions of the ladies of Mad Men.
