Did you know that at the height of the 19th century beard craze, Victorian women even tried to emulate men and style their own form of facial hair? ‘The Examiner’ in 1863 reported “the new fashion for European ladies next winter will be the enlarging of their love-locks, and pulling them down over the cheeks in imitation of whiskers”.
