I saw this picture with the caption “Anyone recognize these?” Of course we do, they’re still in use by hairdressers to ‘section’ your hair off into blowdryable areas.
Nothing ever really goes away, it just gets repurposed & recycled. Although, I remember the weapon of choice for pincurls on female members of my family were two small, crossed bobby pins.
The other day, I saw a “beauty post” on social media that talked about this new, exciting way to curl your hair – no kidding – “wrap your hair up in rags”. If I’m not mistaken, this is exactly what our great-grandmothers had to do. And the way Spanx brought back the hated “girdle” without calling it a “girdle”!! I’m still waiting for “Big Hair” to come back!
