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.

This is a super chic and sassy looking bob with waves and short bangs to spice things up a bit.
The finger waves are perfect for this 'do. There is a side part that does not go all the way back but rather the strands on the crown are lifted with a little back combing and directed toward the back. The bangs are fringy and very short and also brushed up and over.

This is such a charming and typical hairstyle worn by women during the decade of the 1940's.
This gal has short dark hair with a deep side part and super short bangs that are rolled under and cut fairly straight across. The fullness is concentrated on the sides rather than the top which is pretty flat. Rollers placed at night in rows helped to create a style such as this. Women typically slept with those hard and uncomfortable accessories in an effort to look glamorous and feminine. This photo was taken around the WWII era and is in black and white. The setting is in the bathroom with a retro sink.

What a lovely vintage inspired hairstyle that would be perfect for so many occasions.
She has very defined and deliberate waves that are created using hair products that will keep the strands together and in curled position. The bangs are brought back from the forehead and lifted a bit into shape for some height. The mane is pulled into a ponytail at the back of the neck and the length cascades over one shoulder in a side swept fashion. The way this one is curled is almost reminiscent of pin curls but these are much bigger and twisted in various directs for an edgy appeal. She is wearing long dangle jeweled earrings and strapless white gown.

This is a great example of how you can get a 1920's faux wavy bob even when you have long hair!!!
She has a side part with one side slicked back close to the scalp. The other has the bangs pulled over and then waves are created like a Marcel Wave. A crimper could be used here or a flat iron would work as well. The back is pulled up into an updo and the side with the bob-look has some creative placement and strategic planning.
