Practicing Vintage Hairstyles

I've been practicing vintage hairstyles on myself since last year. I'm not amazing but it's getting a little better. I've learned so much from YouTube tutorials by talented ladies such as Lisa Freemont and Casey Brown. Thanks Dolls!
I go back and forth between 1950's and 1940's hairstyles, although I lean more towards 40's because I like the longer styles. Oh how I wish I had hair like Rita Hayworth or Betty Grable! But alas, my hair is very thin and stick straight. I always used to do a basic Bettie Page look just because it was easy with my hair, but I don't have the thick bangs to pull it off either! So gradually I began to explore more styles from the 40's & 50's and bought some hot rollers and lots of hair products to keep my thin hair in curls! Of course Hubby thinks I'm nuts but I love it! So I'll keep on practicing and I hope the tutorials will keep on coming!

Veronica Lake Inspired fingerwaves

I've been looking at alot of 1940's hairstyles lately. I've been practicing on my hair for a while. My hair is getting longer so I've been looking especially for hairstyles for longer hair. I finally found some great tutorials on YouTube! This one is for Veronica Lake inspired fingerwaves. This girl makes it look so easy! She's so talented. Her name is Ashley and her user name on YouTube is LisaFreemontStreet. She has many tutorials on vintage hair & makeup and they're pretty easy to learn. As I type this, I'm letting my hair set on this Veronica Lake fingerwaves hairstyle from this tutorial. Hopefully it will come out as good as hers!
