It strikes me as looking out of place, too. I found a scrapbook from
1917 in a thrift store once. The book was just FULL of film star photos.

For the most part when hair is shown loose
A friend who has worked in costumed film pieces told me to look at the extras
in a film to see authenticity. The extras are often actual re-enactors. The
star usually refuses to wear authentic hairstyles and they movie makers give
in to their vanity.
I recall a B ( or maybe C) budget movie

Look at Doctor Zhivago. Julie Christie's hair is pure 1960's, which spoils

Elizabeth and Essex) with Bette Davis with very Elizebethan hair while
her ladies in waiting all have 1930's hairstyles.
