Katy Perry looks retro 40s fabulous while performing at NBC's Today Show Summer Concert Series on Friday. Her medium length just past the shoulders curls are pinned up on one side with a lime green bow that stands out against her very dark brown almost black locks. She has a full bang that is curled under which is an old school deal. She looks like a glamor doll whose image may have been painted on the side of a WWII airplane or something. She has a unique style all her own that's for sure.

60s Big Bouffant Flip

Here's a picture of a teacher from the 1960s with a big bouffant flip. This woman has plenty of height on the top of her head as it looks as though there are at least 8 inches of ratted curls there. This was a popular hairstyle during this time period and celebrities like That Girl had something very similar.

See below for a photo of the whole class of kids and their styles back in the day.
