The construction, styling and care of hairstyles from a specific pre 21st Century time period: 1800’s In Europe hairstyles become more simplistic and natural looking than in the past. Both men and women wore their hair very short like the Roman emperors, or the women wore their hair into Greek knots, with short curls that framed the face. Smooth braids around the head. As men become more concerned with commerce, and trade less time on dressing the hair was spent. So men's hair styles also became shorter and sometimes cured and dressed with amasser oil (very heavy oil used to dress hair that was often perfumed—our modern day styling gel and waxes have the same effect.). Most men wore some form of a moustache, sideburns or a beard. Queen Victoria encouraged a modest appearance in the upper class, but in 1861 when she withdrew from society due to widowhood, Eugenie de Montijo, who was the wife of Emperor Napoleon III took over the influence of fashion in Europe as a whole, and fashion once again took a turn more to the side of being frivolous.
