1940's Victory Rolls

This is a lovely partial updo worn by a young woman in the 1940's.

This photo is authentic from that decade. The sides of her hairstyle are pulled back and then curled forward into rolls! The back is down and reaches the collar. The bangs are stacked on top of the forehead in a tuft. She is wearing period clothes and a corsage for a special event. Her dress has embroidery. Red lipstick was typical and a standard feminine statement. The Victory Roll was a popular style post WWII and a patriotic way to celebrate the success of the war for the Allies.

BeeHive Updo

What a great beehive updo that has all the charm of the 1960's but with a modern twist.

This hairstyle has plenty of height and has quite the wow factor. This model has dark brown locks and an off center part with bangs that are pulled over to the side up and over the forehead. The are super straight and stiff with hair product. The dangle down the side for an asymmetrical look. The strands on the crown are pulled back and over a form that give the high lift necessary for this style. Back combing also helps to give more oomph. Super cute 'do that is perfect for a party or anytime.

1980's Updo

This is a fun hairstyle with a whole lotta height on top and can be styled with either short or long hair.

The sides are slicked back and secured at the rear of the head. There is heavy back combing on top and firm hold gel is used to get the stiffness needed for this kind of height. The bang area is pushed up as well as the whole top section in rooster-like fashion. This model has blond hair with highlights and lowlights. She is wearing a simple black dress. This is somewhat like a fohawk.

Updo with Braid as Headband

One large braid is taken from the back of the head and follows the hairline around the face. She has medium brown hair that has a hint of berry tone to it. She is wearing a royal blue blouse with a square neck that is lined with black ribbon.

Vintage Twisted Updo

We have a lovely vintage updo that showcases many twists that are placed throughout this 1940's style.

The length in the back is brought up and twisted around like a bow and secured in the middle with a section of hair. Two other sections are brought up the top in the front and small rolls are added there. This is an unusual and out of the ordinary 'do. It's classy and formal but can be dressed down.
