Ancient societies had simple hair styles like long or cropped hair held with bands. Aristocrats had more complex styles, like Sumerian noblewomen who dressed their hair in plaits and nets. In the Muslim world and East, men's hair was modestly covered while women's hair was washed at public baths. African hair styles indicated status through techniques like shaving, dyeing, bleaching or stiffening hair. Modern hairdressing involves styling healthy hair, washing it regularly, coloring it safely, and cutting it with scissors or razors to shape short styles.

HISTORY OF HAIR STYLES
Ancient World In early and primitive societies the simplest hair style, worn by the common people, was long or cropped hair usually held in a fillet or band. Aristocrats developed distinctive and more complex styles. Sumerian noblewomen. for example, dressed their hair in a heavy, netted chignon, rolls, and plaits around the head or Ietting it fall thickly over the shoulders.
• The Non-Western World-Tbe Muslim World and the East Among Muslims - traditionally, the hair was modestly concealed in public under the man's headdoth, turban, or fez or the woman's veil. Both men and women, however, attended their respective hammams (public baths), where the men were shaved (sometimes the whole head except for the long topknot) and their beards were trimmed. The women's long hair was washed and often given a henna rinse.
Africa -Africans developed complex hair styles indicative of status. Some involved shaving the head, dyeing the hair with red earth and grease, bleaching it with ammonia, Or stiffening it with dung. Among the Masai, for example, non warriors and women shaved their heads while warriors tied their front hair into three sections of tiny braids.
MODERN HAIRDRESSING PROCEDURE Styling. The most important qualities for hair are that it be healthy, shining, and in a flattering, easy-to-manage style.
Washing. Clean, healthy hair is the basis of any hair style. In addition to brushing, dry hair requires shampooing once a week, oily hair perhaps every day. Coloring Because hair coloring is constantly being improved and tested scientifically and is subject to rigid quality controls, more women than ever before can color their hair safely and achieve a natural effect. Most errors stem from the user's carelessness.
Cutting Fundamental to a short hair style is the cut. A blunt cut with scissors makes the ends -.of the hair straight. Cutting with a razor tapers the ends so that they cling close to the head. Setting and Waving. Most hair, especially if it is short, needs to be arranged in a certain position while wet to give it shape when dry
