The bang area is twisted up and over and it is pulled back and worked into the side swept ponytail which is full of gentle curls. Tiny white beads are worked into the style. A veil is attached to the back of this asymmetrical 'do. This would be perfect for the woman looking to add some 1940's charm to her wedding day.

With this look a bride wouldn't have to worry about a hairstyle:
This bride and groom from the early 1900's shows us how things were done a century ago. The veil is attached to a hat that resembles a shower cap. The nice thing is, it covers up the hair so who has to worry? This is the ultimate idea for the bad hair day bride. She has a pale complexion and no make-up which was a desirable look for this time.
Here is a great example of a family on vacation back in the day. It's a classic black and white photograph with big fir trees in the background and a glimpse of a mountain in the background. Photo most likely was taken in Mt Rainier National Park in the Great Pacific Northwest.

Vintage Hairstyling
Women of the 1930's, 1940's, and 1950's, generally wore their hair with waves and curls. These bends in their strands matched the naturally curvy nature of a woman's body which was considered to be very feminine and sexy. Many modern gal's are turning to the past for inspiration for their own hairstyles. Many celebrities are donning these retro looks as well: Reese Witherspoon, Katy Perry, and Madonna to name a few.
