It\u2019s nothing new. As long as there have been humans, there has been hair envy. The Egyptians, the Greeks and the Romans paid attention to every hair on their heads; and it\u2019s pretty much the same today.<\/p>\n<p>But, let\u2019s focus on some more recently invented hairstyles. If nothing else, it\u2019s good for a laugh. We could have told you that anything called \u2018the beehive\u2019 was a bad idea! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Stylish, Inventive Hairstyles to Celebrate<\/p>\n<p>1950s:\u00a0 Plenty of Elvis imitators could be seen walking around. Guys were super slick with greased-up pompadours and ladies were lovely with long bobs and equally-stylish pixie cuts. The bouffant was also big (literally) and the ponytail made an appearance.<\/p>\n<p>1960s:\u00a0 Plenty of the looks from the 50\u2019s had staying power\u2026 and the beehive was born. Bigger was clearly better; looks were full-bodied and voluminous! Generally speaking, curlers were \u2018in\u2019 and hairstyles took quite a bit of work to achieve perfection.<\/p>\n<p>1970s:\u00a0 Holy hippies! Looks were longer and less \u2018done up.\u2019 Parted in the middle and straight down to the waist was a common style. The shag made an appearance and the feathered look was hot, thanks to Farrah! The Hamill Camel, popularized by figure skater Dorothy Hamill, was a terrific short hairstyle. And, many African-Americans popularized a more free look with the advent of the afro.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-7345 photo\" src=\"https:\/\/www.davison.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Hairstyles-1-195x300.jpg\" alt=\"Inventive Style\" width=\"195\" height=\"300\" \/>1980s:\u00a0 Hair was BIG. Big bangs and Aqua Net hairspray were a must. We basically looked like founding members of Motley Crue. The mullet was another equally-unflattering 80s look. Tails were a happening look for guys (and by happening,\u00a0we mean we should have never let that happen!)<\/p>\n<p>1990s:\u00a0 The 90s were less hideous than the 80s, which isn\u2019t saying much. Apparently, we took some cues from George Clooney and Jennifer Anniston. \u2018The Rachel\u2019 was popularized, thanks to a character on the hit-show, Friends. And, guys started to emulate George Clooney\u2019s Caesar-esque \u2018do. Sideburns got long and grunge looks gained some popularity. There was generally more variety and fewer big-haired fools polluting the environment with aerosol cans.<\/p>\n<p>2000 and beyond: The modern mane pretty much comes in all sizes, colors and styles. Straightening irons are hot (literally and figuratively), but waves and curls, both loose and tight, are also in. Bangs are big and messy; un-styled \u2018do\u2019s are nice for summer. MTV tends to influence the younger folks to add streaks of color or height on top. Red carpet up-do\u2019s remain popular for fancy affairs. Color, highlights and lowlights have been a mainstay in the millennium so far.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, there also has been a Davison-designed product that has been &#8220;making waves&#8221; in the hair industry!\u00a0 Stylists Emilio and Gino brought their over 40 years of hair-styling expertise to Davison, along with an awesome idea for trimming your own bangs at home.\u00a0 Beautiful Bangs, a sleek, easy-to-use tool for maintaining style at home, emerged!<\/p>\n<p>What will the next &#8220;mane&#8221; attraction be?\u00a0 Time will tell!\u00a0 Happy Hair Day!<\/p>\n<p>(The Beautiful Bangs client has not realized a net profit)<strong><em> <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>A typical project does not get a royalty agreement, sell in stores or generate a profit.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, there is indeed a day on which we celebrate quaffs big and small, short and long, straight and curly.
