Back in the days of the Ancient World, women tried to style their hair in different ways. The hairstyles of the noble ladies of Egypt had clear geometric shapes and were distinguished by great pomp and complexity. Not only in Egypt, but also in Ancient Rome and Greece, laying was trusted to be performed only by specially trained slaves, due to which the latter had a higher position at court. The hairstyle that has been preserved to this day with the hair gathered on the back of the head in a knot is called "Greek."
The peak of the heyday of hairdressing was in the 18th century, and of course, France became the trendsetter for new hairstyles, where one court hairdresser opened an academy for teaching hairdressing. From the collected hair, masterpieces of incredible heights were constructed using a wire frame made in the shape of a hairstyle. Stacking took up to 6 hours.
