"Le Coiffure Pouff"

But what does this word so funny?, Will ask many, it is the biggest extravaganza of the reign of Marie Antoinette, though she is the highest benchmark in terms of eighteenth-century fashion , not only in terms of clothing but also this strange hairstyle in vogue for almost over a decade, the most extravagant rose mounds of hair on the heads of the ladies of the court, wreaking havoc on your aching necks adorned diamonds and lace, but like many women know of this century were characterized by very frivolous, and thus these large heads were empty or full of lice and very fragrant white powder.

What is striking about this peculiar hairstyle is that since the hair root rose nearly a meter or even more, giving us an impressive picture of a woman to make their presentation in the lounge, hair were greased or in some cases there were some scented creams to tighten the hair and do not let this lose the required form, now if the lady was of ancestry is saved all the agony of having to sit for hours in her boudoir, to prepare for a dance or a ceremony, just put on a wig and it was enough, now the most demanding or more vain hair care, washing oils perfumed, and when designing the pouf, made his own voluminous hair extensions sticking meters.

hair was not only the pouf, also increased its volume increases, ribbons, beads, flowers, fruits, arising, in order emeralds had no limit, but the curious thing Pouf was not only its obvious size, but was that this on top of the mound of hair, had a special reason and this could be the gossip of the day.

Could take houses, mills, gardens, palaces, birds, all I could imagine, there was no limit to this trend, the coiffure à la lphigénie composed of ribbons of mourning and the crescent of Diana. And until the revolution it became fashionable, when looted bakeries in Paris during the crisis of hunger, this frivolous courtly society can not do anything more important than showing this event on the bonnets of the Revolt.
