Here is a great example of the classic 60s bouffant flip hairstyle.
Â
This one has huge volume with lots of back combing to create a big hump. The ends flip up to add a sassy edge to this 'do. She has a full bang and the length is ear level well up off of the shoulder. This woman is also sporting some great fashion ideas from this time like a cropped blouse and straight legged pants that hit above the ankle.
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.

If a little vintage is in order, take a look at this picture of a 1920's woman with a short bob with side swept bangs and curly ends.
The part is placed way over to one side and the top is swooped over. The curls are big a puffy but just concentrated on the bottom third and the rest is smooth and straight. The length is just below ear level and up off of the shoulder. Pin curls were most likely used to create the look on the sides.
Teenagers in the 1950s generally dressed in simple styles and had easy care hairstyles like this one here in this picture of a young girl with a pixie cut.
She has short bangs and the sides are cut just about mid ear. This is similar to a boy's bowl cut with graduated lengths and a textured look. The locks are straight which adds to the simplicity. She is wearing a white dress that has a fitted bodice and full skirt that hits just above the ankle. She is wearing white pumps.

What a great picture of a vintage 1950's bride complete with glamor make-up, princess-like crown and veil, and suit-like wedding dress.
The bridal bouquet is beautiful with big Lily's. Women of this time period wore dark red lipstick and dark pencil for eyebrows. The hair is pulled back in a bang-less updo to showcase her lovely face and the beaded and intricately patterned crown adds to the fancy occasion. What a great photo to show what our mothers, grandmothers, and great grandmothers looked on their big day.
