To trace the roots of the pageboy—a close relative of the bowl cut—we travel back to the Middle Ages. Pages were apprentice squires serving knights, often from large families, learning court etiquette while building elite connections. They all wore the era's signature men's cut: a short, rounded style encircling the head. Thus, the pageboy cut was born.
