EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait, we are transported back to the 1930s, where a woman sits patiently at the hairdresser's salon. The photograph titled "Permanent Wave (circa 1930)" captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing an era when women sought to transform their hairstyles with the latest beauty trends. The image exudes elegance and sophistication as we witness the delicate process of hair waving unfold. A skilled male hairdresser stands beside her, his hands meticulously working through her locks. With focused determination on his face, he expertly manipulates each strand to create perfect waves that will endure beyond this fleeting moment. The woman herself appears serene and composed, embodying both grace and trust in her stylist's abilities. Her profile is beautifully captured against the backdrop of vintage salon equipment, adding an authentic touch to this timeless scene. This photograph by Central Press/Getty Images not only offers us a glimpse into the artistry of hairstyling from decades past but also serves as a testament to women's enduring desire for self-expression through fashion.

"Permanent Wave (circa 1930)" invites us into an intimate moment shared between client and stylist; it encapsulates both nostalgia for days gone by and admiration for those who dedicated their craft towards enhancing personal beauty.
