Hairstyles, for thousands of years, have been used to signify many things including economic status, social hierarchy, power, war, and beauty. Over the twentieth century many different actresses and performers including Audry Hepburn, Melanie Griffith, Madonna, and Jennifer Aniston have popularized different hairstyles. Today there are a vast array of hairstyles many communicating a certain idea. Some styles include French braids, flip, high updo, split hair, twist bun, and the pony tail. Until the twentieth century women would never be seen in public with a pony tail; today women wear the pony tail commonly in public places, work, and when competing in sporting events as it is a practical means to keeping hair out of the face.
