Hair Styles for Men

Well here we are, 2 weeks out and I think it is about time I post on Hair style that Men wore in period.
Don't worry it isn't anything too out of the normal for us.
First off, some Links!
Jessamyn's page is a good place to start.

Bad news for those of you with Moustaches and Beards, they were not popular! They do on occasion show up though. Here is an 1818 cartoon of a Dandy Club. please remember this is a cartoon and is an exaggeration. Also sailors commonly didn't shave when out at see, Officers on the other hand likely did!

I know this is going against any of you who may be participating in Movember.
