Vintage Hairstyles

Bob

It started being used in the early 1920s and it gave the impression that the lady wearing it was independent, strong, and confident. To have this style you only need to cut short your long hair. There are many variations of this style. For example, there is the sassy bob (that was introduced by Victoria Beckham) and many others.

Eyebrows play a big role in how slim or heavy your face appears. Your eyebrows need to be thick with an arch in the middle.
