1920's Hairstyles
1920's: Hair Revolution/ The Silent Era
Thousands of women flocked to hairdressers to chop their inches away as "The Bob" became an ever-present symbol of bold, modern femininity. The original iconic bob hairstyle was made famous by Louise Brooks; a showgirl, actress and dancer during her heyday in the Twenties. Irene Castle may also be credited for making waves as a ballroom dancer during 1915 when she chopped her locks and sparked this major trend.
Current celebrities that wear this trend-setting style include Anna Wintour, Katie Holmes, or Selma Blair.
The '20s were also known for tighter finger waves, firm pin-curls and uniform manicured strands or fuzzy soft waves of volume.
