The History of Hairstyles!

  • Blog

Hair styles, techniques, colors, etc. have been evolving since the early 1900’s! Beauty
overall is constantly evolving and it’s up to us to keep up!
The 1910’s
For the early years of the 20th century, the Gibson Girl hairstyle was the one most popular
amongst women of the middle and upper classes. The first decade of the 20th century is characterized by
the transition from confined styles to looser top knots often held in place with barrettes and bows.
The 1920’s
The Jazz decade saw the first bobs ever. Irene Castle is responsible for creating a trend that would
become a staple of the golden years. There were other varieties of bob styles that developed throughout
the decade, but it was the short bob with straight bangs and curled sides that really stood out from the rest.
Another famous actress that styled her hair in a super short bob was Louise Brooks. She managed to
accentuate this hairstyle by adding feminine touches such as headbands, beads, hats, and even feathers
attached to a hairband.

  • Blog

Even if you are 14 learning how to do makeup or 60 years old wanting to perfect doing your
makeup, anybody can do it. Applying your makeup should be therapeutic and enjoyable rather than
frustrating or intimidating. Eye makeup can be daunting but not impossible. Just like everything else in
life, it takes practice. To make sure you are set up for success you will need to right tools and techniques.
You are going to want at least one blending brush. If you want to stick with just getting one brush, be sure
to get a multi-purpose brush. You can ask the person at the makeup store to help you if you need it.
Before you get too excited and begin to apply any eye shadow, be sure to get yourself a good primer. A
primer is going to set in place your eye shadow so that it stays on all day regardless of eye rubbing or
sweat. If you lean towards having oily eyelids, you are going to NEED an eye shadow primer. Why put
on the eye shadow if its just going to crease up and come off a few hours later?
