Twenties/Thirties hairstyle  • The Soft Waved Bob

Covering the transition between the late twenties and early thirties
hairstyle A hybrid hairstyle between a twenties Bob and a thirties Perm.
The faces belong to the nineteen-twenties, their coy beauty is that of the "silent-screen" actresses.
The Bobbed hairstyle too is twenties.
The soft waves are thirties.
The look is less severe than a plain Bob but not quite polished enough to be thirties.
Bolder young women of this period were opting for the Shingle hairstyle others were gradually converting Bobs into Perms.
