WAC Hairstyles A guide for the reenactor without a cosmetology degree.

Members of the WAAC/WAC were expected to keep hair neat and off the collar—vague at best, but with examination of original photos, and some study of personal beauty resources of the era, we can eliminate some of the guesswork. Women’s haircuts were designed to facilitate styling, usually achieved through permanents and/or wet sets.

Wet sets may be achieved with pin curls, rag curls, rollers, or a combination of the three.
