Fraulein Schneider Hair Inspiration




The 1920's saw hairstyles change dramatically from the Victorian period previous. The hair formally long, was cut short to an effortless manageable style and also to shock the older generation. The older generation kept their hair long to keep their femininity as the shorter hair was androgynous. To add femininity to shorter hair, expensive jewels and elaborate headpieces were added. I believe that Fraulein Schneider would have kept her hair long but would have styled it up and always out of the way so not to interfere with her daily chores. I imagine Schneider to have rag curls in preparation to make herself more presentable but this never manages to happen. I think this look would compliment the idea that Schneider is always cleaning. The hair may be covered in some kind of clear netting to protect it. Furthermore, I think she would have wavy curls at the front with the rest of the hair tucked under a net.
