Retro hairstyles are really big right now and this one is from the decade of the 40s when victory rolls were all the rage. This young woman has her locks rolled toward the back as they cascade down her neck and they are secured into place with bobby pins. She is wearing a red hat that matches her dress and they are both true to form of that era.
lIf you love vintage hairstyles from the 1950s, here is a great example of a style that was very typical for young mothers during this decade.
Short hair was very popular and so were very classic short bangs that were curled under. The sides of this style are cut above the ears and are brushed downward with curly ends. Mom and daughter have the same medium brown hair color. This is a darling photo of mom holding baby.

Here is a great example of a bride and her bridesmaids from the 1970s. Back then women did a lot of sewing to save money and each of these girls sewed their own dresses after the bride sprung for the fabric which is a powder blue color with multi colored daisies. The flowers are yellow along with the ribbons and each girl in the wedding party is also sporting one flower in the hair except for the bride who is wearing a veil. All four have their locks worn down and long and wavy.

Here we have a young woman with an example of early 1960s hair, sweater, skirt, and shoes. This gal is standing out on an old country dirt road with her arms folded just like a teenager would do if she was not into whatever was going on here. She is wearing a white blouse that is tucked into a full skirt that comes around the waist and is very puffy. It looks like she is wearing some kind of slip that might had fullness as well. Her shoes are simple slip-ons and are flats. Her hair is cut in a fashion that would be consistent with the decade prior, but she has plenty of lift on top from back-combing and that is definitely a sign that the 60s were in full swing with the bouffant.

Looking for a way to wear a forehead scarf in retro fashion? This woman is sporting a simple black silk scarf over the top of her head that comes down toward her eyes and it has the functional purpose of holding the hair away from the face and out of the eyes. Her blonde locks are full of casual messy curls that can be created with the use of a diffuser and curl enhancing products. The key is to scrunch with fingers while blow-drying. Her smock type shirt is inspired by 70s colors with bursts of yellow, orange, teal, and olive green. This certainly has the feel of the hippie flower child experience.
