History
In ancient history, Alexander the Great was portrayed in a mosaic in the mosaic of Pompeii.
After the eighteenth century, when Europeans in western Poland were shaved universally clean, sideburns, like beards, began to increase in popularity during the Napoleonic period, as first among the military; This trend eventually led to Meiji Japan, in the first wave of Western fashion there. The return of facial hair in Western Europe began as a military mode, initially inspired by the heroic sideburn popularized by the hussar regiments.
Following fashion in Europe the young South American criollos adopted sideburns. Many of South American independence heroes, including José de San MartÃÆ'n, Manuel Belgrano, Antonio José © Sucre, Bernardo O'Higgins, José Miguel Carrera, and Antonio NariÃÆ'à ± o have sideburns and as depicted in many paintings , coins and banknotes.
The nineteenth-century gap is often much more luxurious than it looks today, similar to what is now called mutton, but much more extreme. In the literature, "side whiskers" usually refers to this style, where the mustache hangs below the jaw line (see picture Wilhelm I, above right). Like a beard, sideburns went quickly out of fashion in the early twentieth century. In World War I, to secure the seal on the gas mask, the men should be clean shaven; this does not affect the mustache.
In 1936 President Roosevelt briefly experimented with sideburns on a cruise liner, provoking laughter from Eleanor's wife. Sideburns made a comeback in the mid-1950s, when Marlon Brando's sideburns identified him as The Wild One (1953). Encouraged by Elvis Presley, the sideburns are bandaged by "veils", "greasers", and "rockers" as a symbol of youth post-puberty rebellion by young people who are reviled into "Ivy League".
Wolverine characters are usually depicted and depicted with large sideburns, adding to their tough and aggressive persona. Sideburns gained a new connotation in the 1960s hippie subculture: the struggle of a New Jersey youth to wear sideburns to his graduation public high school made newspaper articles in 1967 and in the late 1960s and early 1970s among youth subcultures such as hippies and skinhead (usually for jaws or shorter in the late 1960s). Sideburns is also a symbol of the gay club scene of San Francisco and Sydney, especially Lambchops. Due to their diverse history, the sideburns can be seen as a rigid and ultra-conservative Victorian, a sign of rebellion, or just a fashion artifact today.
