The beehive is an elaborately piled women's hairstyle. This towering hairstyle is said to have been invented by the American hairdresser Margret Vinci Heldt. Occasionally declared a trendy hairstyle, we rarely see the beehive in everyday life after the 1960s. The beehive was also inspired by the pompous court fashion of the late Baroque - we also list some historical Baroque ladies wigs here.
