1940's Faux Victory Rolls 'How To'

Hello Vintage Lovers!!

I created this hair how to for the girl who just loves victory rolls but has a little struggle creating them...or if you are a 'girl on the girl ' this hair style is perfect for you!!!

Perfect Fast 1940's Pinup Look!!!

What you need:

Rat tail Comb

Hair Spray

Curling iron / if you already set your hair

Bobby pins

Flower

Duck bill clip

Lets Get Started!!!

*** If you don't have bangs Skip This section!!!***
If you do have bangs curl them up like so!

Part your hair on the side. Take a medium to small section right behind your ear. Smooth it with your rat tail comb. Hair spray to keep all the fly aways down.

Twist the section towards the part and pin it. Make sure its nice and secure like so.



***Now on the other side of the part leave a little triangle square piece out of the way. ***



While keeping the small section out of the way. Take out a medium to small section right behind the ear. Smooth it out with comb . Hair spray the fly ways. Twist and pin.

Twist and pin like so. ( Don't worry ifs not to perfect on this side that's where the flower is going to be at)

*** Skip Section if you don't have bangs***
If you do brush them back and clip it with a duck bill clip

Take the remaining bang hair and brush them to the side . then Hair spray .

The small section that we left out will be for pin curling.  Create 3 small pincurls in a upside down triangle.

Pin them that way you don't see the bobby pins.

Hair spray your pin curls

Remove Duck Bill Clip.

If you hadn't already so had a set , curl the ends of your hair under with the curling iron.

Back comb just a bit and smooth it,  that way it will be nice and full.
Then add a Flower or any cute little clip. Then a extra dose of hairspray!!!
Then Finish!!!!



Doesn't she look lovely in my powder room??!!!!



If you have any questions!

Katy Perry 'Thinking of you' Hair How To

Hello There!!!

Its inspired by Katy Perry's music video 'Thinking of you'.

This particular style is mainly used with hats. For a sophisticated and elegant 1940's look.

What you need :

Bobby pins

2 ponytail holder

Hairspray

Comb



**** Start with 2 day old hair. It looks better when you do a up do.***




Comb your hair back. Split it in two ( You want a big bun basically so you need to split it in half.)




You want a low pony tails. ( Tease up each tail so it can an appearance of a fuller hair style)




Take each section and start winding it up like pin curls ....expect its going to be a stand up pin curl **




Standing up pin curl!! *** you can always flare out the edges to make it look wider




Do that with each strand on the pony tail. Until it looks like this.




Then Repeat it on the other side. But making sure you blend both together.




Spray any fly aways with Hairspray!




Completed look on the side
