EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the bustling Medical Fund Hairdressing Room located at Milton Road buildings in Swindon. The grandeur of the Medical Fund Society is evident as it housed an array of amenities including swimming baths, Turkish and Russian Baths, a dispensary, and even a dentist. Built in 1892, this establishment was truly ahead of its time. In this particular image, we are drawn to the hairdressing section where skilled barbers meticulously attend to their clients' grooming needs. The room exudes an air of sophistication with its ornate mirrors adorning the walls and elegant barber chairs inviting patrons for a moment of relaxation and pampering. As we observe closely, we witness expert hands skillfully wielding razors and scissors while providing traditional shaves or stylish haircuts. The atmosphere appears convivial as conversations intertwine with the rhythmic sounds of clippers buzzing through locks. The significance of this photograph lies not only in capturing a bygone era but also in highlighting how establishments like these catered to both physical well-being and personal care needs under one roof. It serves as a reminder that even over a century ago, people recognized the importance of self-care routines beyond medical treatments alone. Thanks to STEAM Museum's preservation efforts, we can now appreciate this snapshot from history that showcases not just hairstyles but also reflects societal values surrounding grooming practices during that time period.
