![A Day in Roaring 20's Berlin | 1927 AI Enhanced Film [Version 1]](/img/tr.png)
The changes for women’s fashions over the decade from the late teens to the 1920s was fascinating. They went from no makeup, long hair and wearing ankle length dresses to makeup, short hair and dresses around knee length. What to speak of social changes in behavior, smoking and drinking in public for women became more acceptable. By today’s standards those are not healthy activities, but these were revolutionary acts for the women at the time. The nineteenth amendment was also passed in 1920.
The only other decade with such extremes over ten years, would have to have been the 1960s. And even that decade pales in comparison.
I wish I had asked my grandmother more about the 1920s when she was still living.
There must have been heaps and heaps of angry mothers seeing their daughters with ear length hair come through the front door
@@jkquinn55 And then things became more "modest and moral" again during the 30's-40's-50's, and then BAM! the 60's happened. Similar thing but with even shorter skirts. 😄
I put "modest and moral" between quotation marks because during the covered up and long haired eras (take the Victorians for example) people still got up to a lot of freaky stuff. It was a façade.
But I have to admit in the 20's a lot of stuff did change. Women wearing very obvious lipstick, smoking and drinking in public instead of in dark little parlours, "wild dancing" and "short skirts" (still covering the knees usually, but showing more leg than before).
The 20's were crazy and fun if you were young and rich.
Read about Edward Bernays and women smoking. It was a ploy to sell cigarettes...not “liberation”.
I am also always so ever amazed by the transition from 1910s to 1920s, it really is the most drastic change in all of history. Or at least it feels that way to me.
@@jkquinn55 Do you think so? Its interesting to wonder about. I dont know I think people have always had free will. I dont know if people have really changed, today we look back at old movies and pictures and assume "people were so moral back then" I think socially it was more acceptable to be modest and moral back then but I dont think it means that all people were "moral", it was just more hidden or not openly talked about if you were otherwise. I live in this century and I have very strong moral beliefs fitting of any century in history, so if I exist in todays modern world and follow what I believe to be the best for me and what is very sacred to me (regardless of my societal surroundings) then I am sure there were people 100 years ago who were just as people are openly today. But I like to wonder about this also, were men and women more respectful and modest or has there always been a conglomerate of all kinds of people on this earth :) takes all types to make our world go round :)
I have my grandmother's 1920's curling iron and although it looks really cool, I couldn't imagine putting something on a hot stove and then in my hair. Notice how much it smoked in the video lol
They still use hot combs, when i went to jamaica in the 90s thats how they straightened my hair
hot combs have been used on natural black hair for ages! one of my friends grew up with her hair being hotcombed and as an adult still swears by them over flat irons
I thought I was the only one who saw the smoke!
Be quiet private Pyle
@Moon Heathen From dry hair? Maybe I missed it, but it didn't look like she had product on her hair.
That curling iron looks so dangerous 😦 you can see how dry their hair looks. Thanks for the video❤️👍
Chris ...in that era conditioners were a rare thing ... they didn’t have such things as we do today most were oil or other fats .. powdered shampoos were merely soap flakes that were sold in envelopes or it was bar soap ..you can imagine how harsh it was ..
Pomade was used to make the hair shine and keep the hair close to the head, pin curl sets gave a more controlled wave and marcel wave ( technique shown in video ) was used to make wave and curl and the iron was heated by embers or electric heaters ..still used in some salons today it of course are electric and are called stoves and used primarily by stylist specializing to clients African descent but can be used on anyone’s hair as long as temperature is monitored as those irons can scorch and burn hair ..but most curling irons are electric and have rheostat’s that control heat
Dry and frizzy.

I was surprised the girl had almost no reaction. She probably had really long hair since childhood, and the feeling of having it all suddenly gone is usually shocking.
@@robinsss That is your opinion I love their hair.
My mom told me that back in the 30's, early 40's, my maternal grandmother wore her hair waved like this naturally; she just shaped it with her fingers...! Real finger waves! How lucky!😍. Thanks SO much for sharing these videos, they are ALL wonderful!!!
That iron to make the waves! I was surprised by that.
Valerie they are called Marcel waving irons. Very skilled. 😘🥁🌻
I inherited my grandmother's hair irons. It takes skill and a steady hand. Otherwise you burn hair off
Yeah I was like “Hey that’s cheating!” 😂
Hot irons were even used in Georgian times
Bobbed hair is very ugly.
The music is just beyond beautiful; I have it on replay.
i remember my grandma used to have a curling iron like that, she never used it and just kept it for sentimental purposes because i think it was her mom's. i remember when i was little i would always wanna see it when we went over to her house
I used to “dig’ like a badger through my grandmothers drawers the second I got to her house- looking back she must have just dreaded that- she’d open the door kiss me and say, go ahead then and I’d run for her drawers but I always found her old curling irons among many other treasures. She was a teenager during the 20’s. I have pictures of her with these cute bobs.
Louise Brooks totally owned the look 😷😍
This reminds me of the short story by F .Scott Fitzgerald, Bernice Bobs Her Hair. It was made into a short film starring Shelly Duvall.
I found that book in the attic it belonged to my great great aunt Daisy but think the video of it is here somewhere
This is pretty much the same technique we use to cut and wave bobs now. Hot irons aren't used as much since we have electric. Loved to see the actual footage of an artist at work💋
At the turn of the century into the 1900's most of America was rural. I have plenty of photos of ancestors way before the 1920's that the girls wore flapper style hair. Haircuts were done at home and a Louise Brooks looking style was common.
My Great Aunt Milly had a waved style like this all her life! I didn't know you used heated tongs on it... i thought it was just her hair!
It may have been her own wavy hair!
Hairdressers still learn this is school today. It takes so much practice and skill, believe it or not!
My grandmother had that curling iron. She heated it on the stove when she curled our hair. A relic she had since being a teenager. There are pics of her from the twenties with her bob.
Wishing I could look this nice in a sassy, short hairdo like these 20s gals.
Me too. I don't have the delicate jawline :(
Yikes! That has got to be the most unflattering look ever designed! And how would the average woman maintain it? Seriously, this is an early example of media manipulation.
Quaintness, lol!!! I'm reading the comments, saw your picture, and was all "waitz-which yt channel am I on???".🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍
They look shite
only works if you have a feminine shaped face
They still teach Marcel waves in some cosmetology schools today! It’s really cool to learn such an old technique, and I think they look gorgeous.
I have a shingle bob. I purchased vintage irons to wave it. They are different to modern irons, the clamping part is deeper and makes the crimps.
Where did you get the vintage irons?
Does it damage your hair more than the modern ones?
Bobbed hair is so classy 😍
Most men don't find it as attractive as long hair.
@@theeclectic2919 Personally I wear my hair the way I like it....which is so short I use a barber rather than a stylist. If a man is so shallow he'll pass me by because of the length of my hair, I'm better off without him. Been happily married almost 40 years to a guy who doesn't judge me on my style choices....whether it's short hair, jeans or Hello Kitty clothes. He loves ME not the media's idea of what women should look like.
@@queenbunnyfoofoo6112 I'm not the media. Most guys are not the media. And, still, most men prefer women with long hair. That's not a judgment on you or your husband. You both are simply outside the general consensus.
@@theeclectic2919 I didn't think you were judging me. (Not that it matters).I was saying that the idea that most men prefer long hair is a stereotype reinforced by the media. Nothing wrong with a specific man preferring it, but it's not like 80% or more do.
@@queenbunnyfoofoo6112 Well, I don't know the number, but I'll bet it's pretty high.
The enhancement of that film is amazing!
The 2nd hairstyle was gorgeous!
I remember my great aunt Lorene telling me about her pineapple bob she got when she cut her hair. Her sister great Aunt Lucille hair that was 5 ft long, she said she was so so so happy to get that cut off because of the weight. The Bob was a great liberation for a lot of women.
It was sadly I never met my Great great Aunt Daisy as she passed before I was born but she felt like a new person after she cut her hair she got the Louise Brooks bob and also the bob is still stylish today Iv had a bob a few tiMes though I have long hair now but I’d maybe go for it again
wish i lived back then; my hair has those waves naturally! been fighting them for 50 years!!
Can we just take a minute to notice the hairdresser wearing a three piece suit at work?!
With French cuffs no less...
I didn't know they had access to curling irons back then! Fascinating!
OMG! That curling iron was smoking hot.
Both my grandmothers had this kind of wavy Bob cut 👍💖🥰
My grandmother and her sister would get the marcel wave the photos i have of them both are so pretty like these ladies here great video! 💖💖💖
I know I wasn’t the only one who screamed when he sheared their hairs.
I just found a sewing machine and table that belonged to my great grandmother. Inside one of the drawers was a curling iron just like that! I had no idea what it was!
As a cosmetologist y’all have NO idea how much this site is treasured...love this “ bobbed “ video 😍😍😍❤️
You really have to have the right bone structure to pull these looks off. I would look like the berries and cream guy with that hair 😂
Agreed. Bone structure.
Same. You really need the tight face shape for this. This haircut is like skinny jeans.
Oh my goodness I love this channel
These looks really don't go out of style...with the right makeup and long earrings they are very versatile and even sexy.
So true! I've had bobs of various length shoulder to chin length) over the last 20 years and love them! I just got it cut in a Bob the same length as the ladies in the video.It really is a versatile style.
Ask any man then if they think this ugly ass hair is sexy !!!!!!
@@leanneadams2549 why would I care? Men aren’t the only ones who get to determine what is sexy.
All that beautiful red hair tho. :(
this was delightful. thank you for posting.
So thats how they made the waves !!!
And I was surprised that hundred years ago the hairstylists already used the thinning technique.
Deep fried hair ✨gorgeous✨
Excellent work on the restoration!👍.
I loveeeee vintage videos like this, so cool
These are all so much fun to watch. 👌🏻
We used to call these finger waves! It was taught in beauty school and was on the state exam.
Even though I know maintenance must have been a biaatch, these hair styles are absolute 🔥🔥
They just look so hip and elegant at the same time.
Great videos, I really am a fan of years gone by. So wish I could time travel, this is a great way to see the past.
My Grandmother had the first bob. There's a photo of her and her 4 sisters all lined up in 1920's dresses and all wearing variations of the same bob. It was funny because they were arranged in age, and it was like each successive birth the girls got shorter. Aunty Betty, the eldest was 5ft 8 inches, which was very tall in those days, right through to my Gran, Tilla, who was the youngest and shortest at 4 ft 11 inches.
Interesting. Did they get permission from their parents, do you know? Or were they being rebellious?
@@oORiseAboveOo Tilla said her sisters had permission, but Aunty Betty, the eldest, took Tilla to get her hair done when she was 16, which was young. There may have been hell to pay over that! 😄
Excellent restoration. I am researching film colourisation. The second style still very much in style today. Liberating at the time.
If you want similar curling irons, look up stove curling iron. You put them in an electric heater with controlled temperature so they won't overheat.
Love your videos 💕 that heat tools looks interesting never would have guessed.
Love, love, love it. 🤍
I no longer work as a hairdresser. But these techniques are still taught in beauty school.
I love the hairstyles from the 20s so much, I got myself a French Bob a year ago, and I couldn't be more happier with it! So much less cost to maintain than long hair,and my hair grows slow, so I barely ever have to cut it. it makes my hair look much fuller than when it was long. I tried for over half of my life to have lustrous, thick, long hair, but between my face shape and my thin, fine hair texture, I always felt so depressed and hated my hair. I even got made fun of by other girls in school, because it was just so thin. In contrast, I've gotten the most compliments on my hair EVER after I cut it all off! When I was growing up, my family was so poor, I was doing good to wash my hair every other day with .99 cent VO5 shampoo, forget fancy conditioners and hair masks and mousse, or salon cuts that could work with the length of it. Too much money and too much damn work. I love short hair, it really IS liberating. It depends on one's face shape and what you're comfortable with. Some women look better with short hair, and some men look better with long hair. Judging from these comments, some people really need to pull their heads outta their rears, jeez Louise... Men want to complain about women being vain and shallow and spending money on vanity all the time or how long it takes us to get ready to go someplace, but God forbid she cut her hair off and quit spending all that money on keratin straightening and bayalage coloring treatments, ha! 🙄 I don't care if its a guy or a gal saying it; if you think short hair on a woman makes her manly, or long hair on a man makes him somehow feminine, then you need to have a long talk with a psychologist about your deep seated issues with sexuality 😉
I also appreciate somewhat short hairstyles on women. Actually, if I were a woman, I'd probably sport one of these Bob haircuts myself; maybe because I hate it when my own hair grows long in the back and is all flat and greasy in the first place.
think of how liberating and free that must have felt .... to cut off the long, long hair!!!
I like the "Shingle with Fringe" near the beginning. It's basically a bob and I think it would look nice even today. Can't imagine what it felt like to lose all that hair in a few minutes. Very skilled stylists.
Good morning, Miss Crabtree!
For longhaired ladies at that time, I guess they needed a great courage to cut their hair short. Bobbed hair was a symbol of their great courage and resistance against traditional norm.
You only need to read a few comments here to see that it’s very similar now! “Oh, I couldn’t cut my hair.” Plus ça change...
Thanks for that comment.
I had not before considered this, and it make me happy to know.
I think these classic bobs are lovely.
@@shojinryori It was a daring rebellion against what was expected of women, not just a style.
I imagine they had to go to the salon quite frequently. Which also usually means $$$.
Many women were doing these styles at home,either on their own,or with assistance from family and friends. However, the 20s were an affluent time for many,with the exception of '29,of course,so there were many women who could afford frequent trips to the beauty parlor,for maintenance.
Thank you for these wonderful films. My Grandmother had a bob in the’20s in Turkey 🇹🇷. Her natural hair made it wavy. Quite the dashing, daring, female.
Shingle with Fringe here! Ty again for posting these nostalgic videos!🌟
Wow! Thicker brows than I thought!
I remember learning to do finger waves...that curling rod makes it scary...
Gorgeous ladies my Nanny was a Flapper ❤️❤️
Niesamowite! 😱
They had beautiful flawless necks
Amazing
I love the 1900's thru the 1940's ..but the 20's are my favorite! I think I prefer the straighter styles to the finger waves though..
My grandmother did that in the 20s. She looks better when she grew her hair long in the 50s and 60s.
My Grandma ( born 1901) had her hair cut from long to this short style in the late 1920’s and kept the long hair in a silk scarf.
She would always use metal wave clips after washing her hair to get the wave. She once told me, if she had a special occasion she would sprinkle her hair with sugar water as a setting solution.
Beauty!!
I wish this fashion would come around again now we are in the new 20's
To each their own. Some people think my bangs are ridiculous. But these hair styles took SOOOOO much maintenance. It had to be very time consuming to upkeep this stuff, seems very stifling.
And looks AWFUL. Just horrendous.
You can see he literally burned that woman's hair.
That’s not true! You are seeing moisture from the hair evaporate.
I wouldn't get it, but I have to admit it's a really nice stylish look!👒🐩🌻🍨🎀🍭
you'd always think this just an old person's haircut, since old ladies have it. but they must have had it in the 1920's and haven't adjusted to more modern trends. funny
I wear a short bob. Super cuts does a good job. I have really straight hair. The modern bobs, r not as fancy. They cut it straighter.
My great-aunt was a flapper. Shingled hair, dropped waistline, handkerchief hem, the lot!
My grandmother was in her 20s in the 1920s and she had the bobbed hair doo also. She looked really pretty back then!!
Cool!
But I was wondered is that the hair product they use to keep their hairstyle, or it was just oily hair.
Because some people told me vintage hairstyle will be easier to be done on oily hairs.
Brilliantine!
There were styling lotions and cremes, no doubt some contained oil(s). Since this style was so very popular, many women had this style who did not have oily hair. Many women did not have to use the curling irons to wave, because their hair was naturally wavy. Those ladies just shaped their waves with their fingers, this was called finger waves.
@Caucasian lady
The scalp’s natural oils are there to protect the hair. A bristle brush could be used to distribute the oil down the length of the hair shaft and produce a natural shine. Harsh shampoos strip the scalp of its natural oils, so conditioner is used to synthetically replace the oil. These days, the reason why hair looks greasy after not washing it for a day or so, Is because the scalp is out of wack and produces more oil to try to fix it.
I also recommend a silk pillowcase, which does not suck moisture from hair or skin the way cotton does. Cotton pillowcases can cause dry and frizzy hair, and pimples.
Crazy to know those ladies are not longer on earth, and future people will see our videos of now the same as we see this videos. And they won’t even know who we were, so scary and trippy
Now there are plenty of tutorials on how to make marcell waves on youtube, with time consuming methods and never very good results. To se the hairdresser turn straight hair into a perfekt Marcel wave in a matter of seconds, is fantastic!
My grandmother Bobbed her hair and her Dad was furious. He said she might as well throw her future away, but she said "I already have a MAN"
I would've opted for finger waves and just loosened them up, when the hair is dry for that look. My greate grandmother had long hair. She had finger waves and a semi-low knot in the back. It looked kind of like a bob from the front. She never could bring herself to cut it. Those irons are dangerous.
The carnage
That dame is the cat's pajamas!! 😎
Странное дело, но длинные волосы на барышнях мне нравятся всегда больше. Хотя конечно понимаю, что за короткими и ухода меньше.
I really like fashion from 1910s to the 1980s. It was elegant, colorful and interesting.
Everything starts to be boring, simple and inelegant since the 90s, and 3/4 of the youth of my age (I'm 18) dress in dead colors, black and gray. I wish I was a woman... 😔 I love fashion and I have a lot of ideas in my head that I like. If I came to school dressed in the style of a strong businesswoman like Joan Collins in the 80s (elegant blazer with a large neckline, elegant makeup, hat and other accessories) - the teachers would look unserious around me 😄 I would be the most elegant, beautiful and s_xiest girl in school 😏😇 💅👠
The 90s was soooo iconic imo the 2000s to today is boring and ridiculous.
Gorgeous women. Men didn't know how fortunate they were.
Love these kinds of retro vids! This style is a bit too short and curly for my taste but the bob is my absolute favorite hair do on women.
At least there was no gorilla glue needed.
Thank you
1:02 That smoke though! Her poor hair!
It is morphing on a cinge to get a gloss of wrapped over waves. It did not hurt you, they didn't just waltz into shop two days prior, you had to be profresionalized in Marcel waves, finger waves, tallibot bob, faux bob, walter shingle, points bob, and so many more. After, you would wash your head of hair when done momentairily for the day. My mother would know, she always had styled her hair in the mashraphaunè giletto which was curled locks that almost touched her shoulders.
oh, I almost forgot the Eton crop as well.
I think the 1920's hair was a bit on the short side. I much prefer the 1930's finger waved, bobbed hairstyle, it was less short and softer. I chopped off my own hair but with baby/micro bangs, to replicate the style. But I still don't have it down. I'm going to chop off my hair and try again, since it grew back so quick.
And honestly even these videos look shorter than how I’ve seen most ‘20s styles. Maybe European girls cut it even shorter than American ones 🤷🏻♀️
@@jukihiw That's a possibility. There could have been a style difference.
@@riptiderobin1676 20's hair for women were some of the worst hairdos ever
too short
the best hairdos for women were from the late 70's and 80's
@pretty Belinda the difference is that even when an 80's hairstyle was short overall it was long in the front
the bangs over the forehead in the front kept people distracted from the shortness of the back
your eyes are drawn to the long hair in the front
Wow
How did they do it themselves the next day.
I like long hair more. This kind of style is not for everyone
Good morning 🫖☕ I love eras and different hair styles my famous hair style was the lion, roar!.......🤺💓🌹💋
Buen dia,soy nuevo por aqui🤗😎
wow thats the first time Ive seen them use like a hot iron on hair. Internet got me believing finger waves were all made by fingers!!
True finger waves are. You use waving lotion, a comb, and your fingers to shape wet hair into waves and let it dry. It dries more stiff and close to the head. What you see in the video are considered marcel waves, done with a marcel iron on dry hair.
I love all these hair styles but I could never cut my hair.
Men will always find you more attractive with long hair.
