Wonder what girls in the 1950's wore for their first communion and how they did their hair?

1950s Communion

This vintage photograph is dated May 1959 and shows a young girl wearing a white communion dress and veil. The dress has a full skirt and is knee length. It has cap sleeves and modest collar. She is standing in the front yard posing for the photographer. She has white shoes and anklet socks to match. Her short light brown hair is cut just above the shoulder and she has full bangs that are cut in a slight arch with the two sides being somewhat shorter.

Dakota is sporting some sort of multi band headband that drapes on top of her head like a crown. There are three thin bands that hang down toward her forehead while one arcs across the top.

She has thin long blonde hair that is parted in the middle and has no bangs. She has very little make-up on here which makes her look especially youthful. Her blue eyes are a focal point while her other features are understated. She is wearing a hot pink dress at 11th Annual Tribeca Film Festival – Vanity Fair Party on April 17th, 2012.

Here is a way to take long hair and turn it into an instant wavy bob with a swoosh of the length into an updo!

Lauren Conrad

What a quick and easy way to enjoy a new hairstyle without the cutting it short. The back is pinned up into a knot and one side is pulled back while the other has shoulder length strands that are crimped into waves. She has a medium brown shade with honey highlights. Her hot pink lipstick show off her nice white smile. Dramatic black eyeliner give a sort of cat eye effect.

With a head full of blonde corkscrew curls, Beyonce struts her stuff on stage.

Big hair is the name of the game here. The front strands are somewhat shorter while the back comes down past her shoulders. These curls are very defined and each section has it's own twist. Layers help to keep it from becoming too bushy. She is wearing a black dress with lacy long sleeves.

Here's a back/side view to help you style a twisted bun for a lovely updo like Aimee is wearing at Cambio and Warner Bros. Digital Distribution Celebrate the Premiere of "Aim High."

Aimee Teegarden

The strands are finger styled into place by gathering up the length in back and then twisting it to form a knot. A covered elastic could be used to keep the bun in place and bobby pins if necessary. She has blue drop earrings and a piece of fringe left out near the face. She is wearing a simple black dress.
