From the Decades Hair Style Series #1 The Roaring 20s Bob
The bob hairstyle was a reaction to the repression women
felt during the Victorian era when women wore hairstyles
that were long yet pinned up or covered with a
hat.
During the Roaring 20s, women expressed their freedom by
chopping off their hair to just at the earlobe...the
finger wave was a modification which feminized the manly
bob.
Graduating? try doing your hair in a fingerwave bob,
creating at least one wave where your cap will rest upon
your head. That way, when you take the cap off, your
hair will be the way you want it to be "wavy"!

The fanciful headwear became popular in the early 20th
century and is often worn to the side or the front of
the forehead, making the accessory look oddly bird-like
at times.
