1929 Hairstyles: How to Look like a Flapper
How to look like a 1920s flapper can be a challenge when it comes to hairstyle selection. Getting that perfect wave and spit curl can be easier if you find the right picture to copy. Here are some great hairstyle illustrations from 1929. Hairstyles were changing in the summer of 1929. These illustrations appear in an article titled "the Twilight of the Bob: Longer hair ascends into the limelight".
On this topic, the author gives pointers for growing hair longer from the shorter length bob. Length is important, especially in the back. She suggests getting a perm, since fashion was moving in a wavey direction as these drawings show.
