Styles of Yesteryear
This section of the site has been created to feature
hairstyles of the past. Inspired by the The Family Way series of stories I have
been writing with Sabrina S. Initially it featured a whole page dedicated to the
beautiful actress of the period, Louise Brookes. I also received a contribution
from Alan, a regular visitor to the site, comprising a wonderful series of
prints from the 1930s. I have now extended it to the 1980s with piccies scanned
from books that I recently discovered. I hope to fill in some of the other
decades in due course.
Please let me know if you share my interest in
featuring such styles which are represented so poorly on the Internet. And, as
with all sections, all contributions will be gratefully received from magazines
and books of your favourite periods.
