Glamour Daze pops back in time to enjoy the 1920’s hairstyles for women, worn becomingly by the bluestocking girls of Mary Baldwin College for Women ( now a university ).

The full Mary Baldwin Bluestocking archive is unintentionally – a visual treasure trove for exploring the development of young women’s styles throughout the 20th century.

Here we honed in on the various hairstyles of the 1920’s that were popular among young women attending college. It’s interesting to see how imaginative they were.
