My Gran always used to call them 'kiss curls'. I don't know where that name came from, but I think it sounds a bit nicer than 'spit curls' even if that describes how they are done :o)
I am not 'that' old, but I believe they used sugar water and other house hold foods etc. to style the new "Bobbed" hair styles.
Spit curl. Art Deco bib necklace. 1920's. Hairstyle similar to my mother's wedding photo from 1928 (photo attached)
My goodness . very fine build . people ate less then . such a contrast . to today's world .
Thinness to the point of suppression of breast formation and the like were extolled in the era. It wasn't healthy.\
Ann Glover, my mother was naturally petite. She lived 87 years, bore and nurtured 7 healthy children, volunteered for church & community, and was always known for her cheerful and vigorous spirit.

No, a pin curl used wet hair & metal hairpins to form the curl (more typical in the 40s & 50s--think Marilyn Monroe). A spit curl used spit or gel & was usually stuck to the cheek or forehead. It was formed by the fingers. My grandmother used to say a rhyme, "There was a little girl, who had a little curl, right in the middle of her forehead. When she was good she was very, very good & when she was bad she was horrid."
1920s? She reminds me a bit of Jennifer Jason Leigh. This is a pic w/ the shortest hair I could find. Not the same style, obviously.
This haircut is a typical Vidal Sassoon style from the 60s or later. Most color magazine photos are from the 60s or later (although color photography was invented earlier ). Color film & printing was expensive, so most magazines used black & white photos until the early 60s. Remember most of the old pop star photos, such as Elvis & the Beatles were in B & W.
The hair says 20s, the necklace says 30s, the collar says both, the eyebrows say transition....I'd say sometimes between 1928-1932.
Actually Art Deco style name came from a 1925 Paris design exhibition of "arts decortifs."
Yeah, but it's most memorable in the 1930s (when speaking to the general populace) as that's when Art Deco on buildings and on EVERYTHING became the rage.
Most decades really run from mid-decade to mid-decade for things like fashion and even car models. Often times when someone says '20s they actually mean 1925-1935, if they say '50s they actually mean 1955-1965.
So I stand by my statement of 1928-1932. :)
