For the first time hostesses are employed in barber and hairdressing shops in New York. A Sixth Avenue department store pioneered the trend by adding hostesses to a Fifth Avenue shop to ease patrons, especially foreign born New Yorkers, into spending. Hostesses—often older women with good looks—help customers feel at home and assist in selecting services and products.
