Pompadour hairstyle

The Pompadour is a classic hairstyle characterized by voluminous hair swept upwards and back from the forehead. It gained popularity in the 18th century when Madame de Pompadour, the mistress of King Louis XV of France, wore it. The style can vary in height and can be adapted for different hair types. In modern contexts, it’s often associated with both men and women, featuring shorter sides and longer hair on top, which is styled with pomade or gel for a polished look. The Pompadour remains a symbol of elegance and confidence in hairstyling.
