1930s era wigs and hairpieces

1930s hair marked a return to length, softness, and elegance after the sharp rebellion of the 1920s. Hair was often worn at shoulder length or longer, shaped into smooth, flowing waves that sat close to the head. Finger waves and soft Marcel waves created a glossy, sculpted look, emphasising control and refinement rather than volume. The overall silhouette was narrow, feminine, and polished—strongly influenced by Hollywood film stars—conveying glamour, romance, and quiet sophistication rather than drama or excess.
