1950 Home Rules They Followed

Many people in the 1950's lived simply and it is what most of us would want in the modern world of 2021. 

Everyone had a routine that they followed such as making our beds when you woke up, take a bath, cook breakfast, etc. 

Once in a while they would change up their routine to have a variety and not to get bored but for the most part they never strayed away from their routines. 

This was true, especially those with children. They always said that kids need stability and a routine or else they were cranky and rebellious. 

Many people from the 1950's were all about their houses being so spotless and were to be shown off to others as well. 

They always followed the mantra of cleaning up after yourself as you went and making sure you had good cleaning habits. 

Lots of educational advertisements at the time wanted the public to wake up and dress in presentable clothes, it did not matter that you were a housewife. 

You had to look and had to have the attitude that you are a modest and presentable person. 

The type of person who had their life together and you made a difference in your own home. 

Many people in the 50's were all about planning especially with what you were going to do everyday of the week. 

What can be learned from this is that people from this era had good health statistics and you can see why as they made sure to keep busy all the time. 

Along with planning their lives out to make time to hang out with family.

1950s Hairstyles That Were Popular and Easy

 Thoughts on 50's Hairstyles Hairstyles back in this era were mostly shown of women with short curly hair.  They had big curls that made the volume in their hair rise and looked so shiny as well.  The women put curlers in their hair the night before while it was wet so once they took them out they would have lushish waves on the top of their heads. What is not talked about is that they did have long hair in this era.  Those who did produced the commercials and photoshoots just did not include these types of women/hairstyles as much. All of these women had lots of volume and head full of hair as well, I am quite jealous.  Those who had longer hair in the 1950's styled their hair with bigger curlers the night before as well.  I would have to say I love the look of both hairstyles and I found them so intriguing!  Women's Hairstyles in the 1950s Many of the women in this time period went for the short hair with curls as a way to look fancy and presentable....
