Muhtasari
Powdered wigs became fashionable in the 17th century, starting with King Louis XIII of France. Initially worn for hygiene and aesthetics, their popularity surged due to royal influence and societal changes. By the late 1700s, backlash against extravagance and a tax on powder led to their decline, marking the end of this extravagant trend.
