Cut from children's fashion
I have cut this text: Nearly all Victorian girls had long hair, often past waist-length. Hair was kept straight with bangs or curled into ringlets. An upper-class girl would have worn a fringe, since she had a nanny who could look after her hair and keep it neat and tidy.

-"A woman`s hair is her pride and glory," a quote taken from the bible. Since it was the era of that utopian society known as "polite society," and they also abided by Christian standards, the women of that time wore there hair very long for it was considered very feminine, dignified, and beautiful to have long hair and maintain it. Moreover, a woman with such hair was considered the quintessential woman and anything less would be quite contrary to womanhood. There would be a few women with shorter hair, perhaps a couple inches below the shoulder, so long as they could still wear it up in some sort of elaborate fashion, but women who had short hair were few and far between. Ladies would also wear hair pieces to give a fuller and longer appearance. These hair pieces were often pieces of their own hair that they would either cut or they would take from their hair brushes.
