Celebrity hairstyles have always influenced the way that the rest of the country looks, acts, and dresses. Before movies, celebrities were much less in the public eye than they are today. Usually the celebrities dressed and styled their hair in the way that fashion designers modeled on fashion plates and in magazines. However, with the invention of movies, all of that changed.

Hairstyles in the early days of movies
The early days of movies saw a shift from people entertaining themselves at home to entertaining themselves at the movie theater. The celebrity hairstyles were full of glamour and style. Hair was twisted and puffed and slicked into unnatural positions and styles. It was considered poor taste to have natural-looking hair. Even though movies were popular from the 1920s to 1940s, movie stars still dressed and acted like high society individuals. Individualism had not yet emerged. The hairstyles of celebrities were still similar to that of the styles worn by every one during formal occasions.
Hairstyles from the 50's and 60's
The 50's and 60's marked a change in the way movies were made and how celebrities dressed their hair. Music became a sub-culture like it never was before. This brought in the individualism from musicians which had an impact on how both famous and non-famous people wore their hair. However, there was still an emphasis on the right shape and style even for celebrity hairstyles.
Hairstyles from 1970s and 1980s
During this time, celebrity hairstyles began to differ from one another. Men grew their hair long, or kept it very short. Women were able to wear straight or curly hair. It was popular to have a somewhat wild appearance to the hair. The hairstyles reflected the feeling of rebellion that pervaded that time in history. The mullet, large perm, and feathered hair were all hairstyles popular during this time.
Hairstyles from 1990s
After the rebellion in the 70's and 80's, society calmed down somewhat. They got down to business in the 90's. Men began to wear their hair shorter again, and they almost eliminated the curl for men altogether. Women tamed their unruly perms and cut them short into business-appropriate bobs. Bangs were very popular among celebrities during this time.
Modern hairstyles
Today celebrity hairstyles vary drastically. There is a feeling of anything goes in Hollywood, and it shows in clothing choices and hairstyle choices of the stars. In some cases, popular hairstyles are adapted from famous political figures as well. The natural look for hair is very important. Even if a style takes hours to arrange, it is arranged to look as natural as possible. Every celebrity's individual beauty is celebrated. This freedom is apparent in the styles of society in general as well.
