What happens
Phil Harris discovers three gray hairs at his temples and is horrified, convinced his looks are fading. Alice tries to reassure him, but he is determined to hide the change from the public. He sends Curly, the Harris family's friend, to a beauty parlor to have his hair touched up in secret. Curly is mistaken for Phil Harris by the beauty shop staff, and the scheme runs into trouble from the start. The Phil Harris Alice Faye show is a radio comedy series, and this episode aired on NBC on October 9, 1949, starring Phil Harris and Alice Faye.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
