Situated on the border between fashion and body imagery, the subject leaves no one indifferent.\u003cbr\u003e In Western culture, unkempt hair and excess body hair have often been associated with the devil, animals, and wild men. So much so that for centuries civilized men and women had to comb, tame, and sometimes even conceal their hair. \u003cbr\u003eBecause hair is a bodily material that can be transformed in a thousand and one ways - stretched, cut, completed, colored, decorated, hidden or exhibited - it is an essential element of self-presentation that allows us to display adherence to a fashion, a conviction, a protest and carries many meanings, such as femininity, virility, negligence, etc.\u003cbr\u003e A few names of famous hairstyles - Fontanges, Titus, flapper, Iroquois, etc. - reveal that hair is also the subject of real fashion phenomena, carrying social and cultural codes that contemporaries of each era know how to decipher. \u003cbr\u003eFrom the end of the Middle Ages to the present day, this book covers several themes inherent to the history of hairdressing (combed, cut, adorned hair; wigs, hairpieces, baldness; coloring), without forgetting questions related to facial hair (hairless faces, beards, mustaches, eyebrows) and body hair (torso, legs, pubic area, armpits, hair removal). The use of hair to make jewelry, the glory of superstar hairdressers or the use of hair in haute couture are other themes that will offer the reader many surprises.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antinoë","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46500301570372,"sku":"26518","price":55.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/4043\/6408\/products\/7858_xl.jpg?v=1680963576","url":"https:\/\/anttopinoe.com\/en-en\/products\/des-cheveux-et-des-poils","provider":"Antinoë","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
