EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of the 1920s obsession with feminine beauty and the latest trend to emerge from the exotic East: tattooed eyebrows. In this photograph taken in a West End salon in London during the year 1929, a lady sits comfortably in a plush chair, her eyes closed in relaxation as a skilled tattoo artist carefully applies intricate designs of small flowers and delicate butterflies to her eyebrows. The Japanese influence on this beauty trend is evident in the delicate, ethereal motifs adorning her face. The tattooing of eyebrows was a daring and unconventional choice for women during this era, a departure from the more traditional methods of makeup and cosmetics. The permanence of the tattoo added an air of mystery and allure, making it a desirable addition to the feminine repertoire. The salon, with its elegant decor and ornate screens, exudes an atmosphere of refinement and sophistication. The lady's toilette table, adorned with a porcelain basin and ornate mirror, adds to the sense of indulgence and self-care. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the cultural shifts and beauty trends of the 1920s and 1930s, showcasing the enduring appeal of the exotic and the daring in the pursuit of feminine beauty.
