A History Through Hair

October 06, 2014 by Kate Moore

http://wheremourningmeetsart.blogspot.com/2012/04/victorian-mourning-hair-art.html

This post features a book full of hair mementos from a collection of family and/or friends. These pages each represent a simple example of hairwork, but they show how hair was symbolically important to the remembrance of loved ones. Definitely a post (and blog!) worth checking out.
