("THERE was a time when only beggars went bareheaded. This was some while
ago, a century or so. But up until World War II and the period just after, a
gentleman was not considered properly dressed without a hat")
My comment:
(a) No wonder photos of Pres. Lincoln's era invariably showed a sea of top
hats.
(b) Read only the first four paragraphs--and take a look at photographs.
(c) The Cat in the Hat
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cat_in_the_Hat
(by Dr Seuss; 1957)
(d) bowler hat
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowler_hat
Please read the whole page, which is interesting.
(i) Then you will realize when the article says, "The bowler, or derby, with
the rigid shape of an upended bean pot, was named for a 19th-century
English earl who popularized the style," The article means "Coke hat" rather
than bowler hat.
(ii) Coke is a variant spelling of, and pronounced as, another surname Cook.
Incidentally the surname Bowler denotes a maker or seller of bowls.
(iii) I always wonder how a teeny bowler hat (today I learn it is the same
bowler hat) stays on the crown of a Bolivian woman's head.
(e) beanpot
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beanpot
(f) fedora
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedora
(Originally a women's fashion into the 20th century, the fedora came into
use in about 1919 as a men's middle-class clothing accessory./ The word
fedora comes from the title of an 1882 play by Victorien Sardou, Fédora,
written for Sarah Bernhardt. The play was first performed in the United
States in 1889. Bernhardt played Princess Fédora, the heroine of the play,
and she wore a hat similar to what is now considered a fedora.)
Victorien Sardou, a dramatist, and Sarah Bernhardt, an actress, were both
French.

My comment: Just glance at photos. No need to read text, except paragraph 2.

Quote:
" The perming process has not changed demonstrably from 25 years ago (rods,
chemicals running coolly and perhaps with a slight sting around one’s
cotton-wrapped head, a little sitting in a shower cap and a lot of rinsing
over a sink). But now stylists are paying more attention to timing (
generally less), rod size (larger) and customized chemical combinations. For
example, someone with highlighted hair might receive a treatment with very
little ammonium thioglycolate, the active ingredient that renders hair
mutable, which would be left in the hair for no more than 10 minutes. This
is arguably peanuts compared with some formaldehyde-tinged straightening
processes (cough, cough), like the much-maligned Brazilian or Keratin
treatments, which can take hours and have raised health concerns.
Note:
(a) Ammonium thioglycolate
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_thioglycolate
(b) The caption of the first photo mentioned "a body wave." The word wave is
not new.
"A permanent wave, commonly called a perm, involves the use of chemicals to
break and reform the bonds of the hair."
