Puffs, Fringes and Fronts

Puffs were frizzled or wavy hair, rolled over a foundation (or "puff"), meant to be worn on the forehead, at the hairline. Fringes were? Puffs looked like forehead curls but must be distinguished from curls located at the temples or sides of the head (called "favorites").
