The bodices may rip on Netflix’s Bridgerton, but the hairstyles never move. The show is a delightful confection of horniness, empire-waist dresses, tea sets, cutlery-licking, and follicular achievements. Thanks to the constrictions of society, the women of Bridgerton never let their hair down (except when they’re sleeping). As a result, the show is a display of big hairdos. Let’s gape at some of the best ones, shall we? Scroll on for wigs, waves, curls, bejeweled tiaras, and gravity-defying architecture.
