EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past with this image of a young woman giving herself a home perm in the late 1920s. The photograph, taken in the intimacy of her bedroom, shows her intently focused on her reflection in the dressing table mirror as she applies the Marcel wave machine to her hair. The Marcel wave, a popular hairstyle of the era, required the use of heated rollers or electric curling irons to create long-lasting waves. The young woman's determined expression and the rather dangerous-looking electric apparatus she is using add an intriguing element to the scene. The Marcel wave machine, with its exposed wires and metal rollers, appears to be a far cry from the sleek and modern hair styling tools we are accustomed to today. It is important to note that the use of such appliances at home without proper electrical safety precautions could be risky. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the history of home hair care and the lengths women went to achieve the latest fashionable styles. The 1920s were a time of great change and experimentation in fashion, and the perm became a symbol of the modern, independent woman. With the rise of mass production and the availability of home perm kits, women no longer had to rely on salons to achieve the latest looks. The Marcel wave machine, invented by French hairdresser Marcel Grateau in 1872, revolutionized the way women styled their hair. Eugene Schueller, the founder of L'Oréal, was also an innovator in the field of hair care, developing the first permanent wave solution in 1909. These inventions, along with the popularity of the Marcel wave, transformed the way women approached hair care and set the stage for the beauty industry as we know it today.
