EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this advertisement for Unwin & Albert's fringes, as featured in an 1898 publication. The image showcases a fashionable woman proudly displaying a lush, natural-looking fringe made of human hair. Unlike other hairpieces of the era that were prone to fraying and damage from sea air, Unwin & Albert's fringes were a game-changer. The 1890s were a time of great innovation and experimentation in hairstyles, with women often wearing elaborate coiffures and extensions to enhance their beauty. However, maintaining these intricate styles could be a challenge, especially when it came to keeping fringes looking fresh and vibrant. Unwin & Albert's solution was to offer high-quality, natural-looking fringes made from human hair. The advertisement assures potential customers that these fringes would not be affected by the elements, making them a practical and fashionable choice for women seeking to enhance their appearance. The image of the woman in the advertisement exudes confidence and elegance, with her perfectly styled hair framing her face and accentuating her features. The use of soft, muted colors and intricate detailing in the illustration adds to the vintage charm of the advertisement, transporting us back to a time of vanity and beauty. Whether used as a wiglet to add volume to a particular section of the hair or as a full fringe to frame the face, Unwin & Albert's fringes were a must-have accessory for any fashionable woman of the late 19th century. Today, this advertisement serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of natural-looking hairpieces and the importance of innovation in the world of beauty and fashion.
