80's Hairstyles had to be puffy and big on top. This era was time for bigger is better. Big hair, large shoulder pads, and bold colors were a sign of the times. Dress for success was the motto and wearing heels and dresses to work was common.
The hairstyle shown on the left is the fuller version of the curly permed short haircut. All of the volume is on top. Heavy gel and shellac type hairspray was essential. The style on the right is the more conservative look.

Here is a great side view of Victoria Beckham's sharply angled inverted bob. If you are looking for a picture to take to your stylist, this would be a good one. It shows the back length and the way the strands gets longer toward the front. The pieces in the front hang down a couple inches past her chin. The back is cut up off of her collar and there is layering involved to bring fullness to areas like the rear and on top. This is a great short sedu hairstyle in which a flat iron is used to create the stick straight appearance. She does have bangs which are styled to the side for a bangless look. Victoria has gone darker with her locks here to a light brown with some golden highlights which are beautiful on her.
Her previous version of this hairdo sported bleach blonde locks and one side was cut much shorter than the other, this is her new haircut in the above photo.
Victoria rose to fame with the pop group Spice Girls in the 1990's. She is also known as a songwriter, dancer, author, fashion designer, and actress. This woman has many talents and we love her for her great trendy hairstyle.

Here is a beautiful vintage updo with hat. One prominent curl comes down over the forehead and a netted tam hat pinned to one side emulates a typical 1940's hairstyle. Hair is directed around the finger and pinned into to place to get this glamorous look.

In the late 1940's, the victory roll hairstyle was wildly popular. This term was actually used for a fighter plane maneuver, but women adopted it for a fashion statement that celebrated the victory after WWII. This picture shows one woman's version of this hairdo. These were the days before blow-dryers, so it was necessary to come up with ways to style hair that worked for them back then. This is a picture of my mother who had very fine hair. She would put pin curls in her wet hair at night and sleep on them to be styled in the morning. Sections of hair were wound around fingertips and secured to the head with bobby pins. This gave the hair body and curl. Then, the next morning, the strands were brushed up the sides and pinned at the top in rolls. Some rolls were more defined than others.

Sometimes a whimsical youthful looking hairstyle is in order. This young lady had pretty medium brown hair that has splashes of copper highlights. The length is down past her shoulders. Hair is pulled back into two loose pigtails that sit low on each side of the head behind the ears. The bangs are parted in the middle and are left out to hang down in front of the ears. Big hoop earring top off this fun and playful look.
