As time went on people started to get use to the new fashion, and that is where the roaring 20's began. Women even began to cut their hair into a bob style so they could wear the new fitting hat and put their hair under them. The women has dresses that had lower waist lines and they were fuller towards the hemline so they could dance to new dances such as the "Charleston".
