In the 1940's and 50's men carried photographs of pin up girls with them on journeys overseas while serving their country during WWII and the Korean War.

This woman is wearing a wide red scarf tied around her head with a knot/bow in the front where her bangs are rolled up around it. The rest of her light brown hair is pulled up in an updo and the back has small bun. She is wearing a red and white checkered blouse that is tied up in the front and of course her lipstick is bold and matching. Her blue jeans complete the look. The color combination and the sexy playful look of these women helped to give the men of this time period something to live for.

During the early 1900's woman generally had long hair but often wore it up to keep it out of the way of chores as a practical measure.

A deep and deliberate side part separates the two sides. Her hair is naturally wavy and somewhat kinky. It was probably difficult to control this trait but pulling it back and into a bun helped to manage the bushiness. You can barely see a barrette that is used to secure the rear portion. She is not wearing a stitch of make-up. Her white gauzy cotton blouse has a modest v-neck with ruffles lining it.

It is secured at the top of the head in "I Dream of Jeannie" style. The bangs and all are pulled back rather tightly in a slicked fashion. The ponytail is extremely long and straight and is two tone with blue and purple. This part could very easily be a hair piece that can be purchased and added. Her own strands can be seen at the crown as they are dark. She is dressed in a neon chartreuse green sports bra and heels. Her gathered short skirt is green, white, and black or navy. For those looking for good examples of K.P. costumes for Halloween or parties, this one would be fun to copy.

Bridal Weave Updo

This bride has light brown hair with honey colored highlights. Sections are pinned into curls that weave in and out of each other to create an artistic backdrop to be seen by the wedding guests as the vows are heard. What a perfect picture to show your stylist for the big day. This one is pretty for spring or summer but other flowers could be used for fall or winter making this a great choice for any season. If a no veil style is for you then this may be the one.
