Who wore wigs in Ancient Egypt? Why did Frankish kings have long hair? What is a pouf hairstyle? Why did some people scalp others? Why do curly-haired women straighten their hair? How can you tell a punk from a Rastafarian? Louise Vercors explores how attitudes toward hair have changed over the centuries, explains why hairstyles have been important at all times, and reveals their symbolic meaning.
