Achieving the forehead look
Beauty trends have changed a lot throughout history. While many of us want our hair to look as full as possible, that wasn’t always the case. In fact, people wanted it out of the way so that they could show off their foreheads. People in the Middle Ages believed that an egg-shaped head was the most attractive and that people needed to find a way to alter the appearance of their face.
Many people used bandages that had been soaked in ammonia, vinegar, and walnut oil to remove their eyebrows and lashes. They would then remove the hair from the front half of their heads to try and make it look as though their foreheads were as large as possible.
