Photo dating request

Can anyone help me date this photo? I know there's not much to go on - except maybe the hair. I believe it is my gggrandmother b 1865.

Many thanks

Hi Rebecca,

You are right there is not much to go on but the hair style that she has was known as the Pompadour style and came into fashion around about 1892 to 1895 and stayed in fashion until about 1910. I feel that due to the style of jacket that she has on that this study was taken after 1905.
