I just found this free article by Janet Stephens, the hairdresser who has made a name for herself by using her hairdressing knowledge to derive the plausible construction of ancient Roman and Greek hairstyles that have been preserved in period sculpture.* Stephens writes well, and the article, which appeared in Journal of Roman Archaeology,** is well illustrated. Enjoy!
* Stephens continues to operate a hair dressing salon in Baltimore, Maryland. In case you're curious, the website for her salon may be found here.
