We adore vintage hairstyles and today we want to discuss one of our vintage hairstyle choices as we will be doing over the next few weeks, starting today with the finger wave!

The finger wave hairstyle first made an appearance in the 1920s as a softened version of the severe bob that often accompanied the iconic flapper style. The style gained popularity through usual means that are no different from today; Hollywood stars would wear the style and effectively contributed to the popularity and evolution of the hairstyle.
