updos for medium length hair
In the words of Edna Woolman Chase, the best dressed woman in the world, “Fashion can be bought, style one must possess”. A well put phrase describing the world of fashion and style.
One of the most critical parts of fashion and style includes hair. Yes, not make-up, not clothes, not the shoes, it’s the hair. No matter how nice a woman’s make-up may be, or how pretty her shoes and clothes are, it all just won’t add up if her hair are not done right. Trends in hairstyles come and go just like any other fashion piece. However, hair styles do have their advantage – you can simply wear them anytime, as long as you look good in it. You even have the freedom to modify it a bit and to incorporate your own individuality so no fuss about that. Clothes on the other hand, would totally make you look out of place, or passe.
When talking about hair updos, the bouffant is always included. The bouffant is generally just a hairstyle that has hair piled high on the head, with some hanging down on the sides. It is a classic hair style, as it was popularized during the 1960’s and way before that too, which is in 18th century Europe worn by Marie Antoinette. Today, it is commonly used as one of the formal hair styles. The 1965 big hair fashion is now considered to be an elegant vintage look. People with fine hair could have create an illusion of having more volume with this hair updos style and at the same time create an illusion for a smaller, longer face – something that every woman dreams of having.
Just like anything else, the bouffant hair updos also evolved into another hair style. This hair style is known as the beehive. The beehive was born as a response to younger people who wanted something different – as the bouffant became a symbol of a bygone era. Plus, the concern over using too much hairspray just to hold the hair in place, or theatre-goers who continuously complained about sitting behind a woman with very high hair just isn’t appealing any longer. Would you like to go to the movies and sit behind Marge Simpson? Guess not. So, a new version was born.
