A Century of Hairstyles by Pamela Church Gibson

Nothing defines a person like their hairstyle - and what a century it has been for hair! From the Edwardian era through the seismic changes of the 1920s and '60s, and including every quirky twist hair history took on its way to the turn of the millennium, this book presents a lush visual survey of a hundred years of hairstyles.
