Belgian Boys Hair Styles: Top Curl


Figure 1.--This Belgian boy was photographed in 1908 wearing a sailor suit with a top curl hair style. He has in hair styled long at the sides.

I am not sure what the contemporary term for this hair style was. IThe most notable feature was a kind of curl or partial curl on the top of the head. The hair at the side could be done in many different ways. There was no front fringe. We do not know when this style first appeared. We do know that the style was worn in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The style is related to the chopette style that was popular in the 1930s-50s.
