Bernice Bob's Her Hair

1) F. Scott Fitzgerald portrayed wealthy people as confident and very conservative. An example of this is that everyone was so surprised when Bernice decided to cut her hair because they knew that it was one of her most prized possessions.
2) In this story a modern girl is described as gorgeous with long beautiful hair.
3) A flapper was a young woman in the 1920s that was known to be fashionable and stylish with a conventional style of behavior.
4) Bernice bob’s her hair because she feels as if it’s the right thing to do. She wants to be different form others and she thinks that it will make her look more appealing to society.
5) In the 1920’s people were really serious about the perfect way to dress and the perfect length of hair. Although most people today try to deal with the fashion trends and fads, some people are not that concerned with how they present themselves.
6) I don ‘t think that Bernice’s actions were justified, because its not good to get even with people. People should always be happy for others because you should “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
7) At the beginning of the story, Bernice seemed to be self-conscious about the way she looked, but at the end of the story she walked off confident and arrogant, because she was proud of what she had done. Her character had a big transformation.
