The Comb Over Comeback

Did you know the word ‘comb-over’ wasn’t used until 1980, according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary?

The much-maligned comb-over is poised to make a come-back when the much-hyped "American Hustle" hits theaters this week. As youve undoubtably seen in the previews, Christian Bale sports a classic 70s-style comb-over. 

While I doubt the comb-over will really become a fashion statement in 2014, there are still men, and women, who use the style to hide thinning hair or bald spots. Luckily, with the advances in treatments today, the comb-over is a last resort, and hair loss is treatable for most men and women! 

Stay tuned for more on the history of the comb-over later this week!
