Here is a lovely bride who has chosen a timeless look with an updo that is full of pin curls that are sure to be a winning choice not only for brides but for any special occasion.

updo with pin curls

Her blonde hair is pulled back into a bun and then sections are twirled around into pin curls! Lots of gel is needed to hold this style.

This blue wavy bob goes well with a black fedora that she has sitting high on the crown and tilted back off of the forehead.

Katy Perry

You can see her black roots here as the color almost looks as though it is spray painted on. She has a little tuft or curl on the forehead and keeps her bangs off of her face. Styling products and pomade along with hairspray hold the design in place at Paris Fashion Week Womenswear Fall/Winter 2012 – Chanel – Photocall. She has smoky eye make-up and is wearing black lace.

In the 1940's and 50's men carried photographs of pin up girls with them on journeys overseas while serving their country during WWII and the Korean War.

Pin Up Girl

This woman is wearing a wide red scarf tied around her head with a knot/bow in the front where her bangs are rolled up around it. The rest of her light brown hair is pulled up in an updo and the back has small bun. She is wearing a red and white checkered blouse that is tied up in the front and of course her lipstick is bold and matching. Her blue jeans complete the look. The color combination and the sexy playful look of these women helped to give the men of this time period something to live for.

During the early 1900's woman generally had long hair but often wore it up to keep it out of the way of chores as a practical measure.

Early 1900s Updo

A deep and deliberate side part separates the two sides. Her hair is naturally wavy and somewhat kinky. It was probably difficult to control this trait but pulling it back and into a bun helped to manage the bushiness. You can barely see a barrette that is used to secure the rear portion. She is not wearing a stitch of make-up. Her white gauzy cotton blouse has a modest v-neck with ruffles lining it.

Cheryl actually has fine hair and it looks rather thick and full of body here with her long mane and big curls. Could possibly be the work of hair extensions.

Cheryl Burke

She has an off center part and is bang-less with the top portion of her style being smooth and straight and the lower half is curled with large twists. Her pretty brunette shade is rich looking. She has smoky eye make up to accentuate her brown eyes and her peach lip stick is understated. This one comes to us from People's Choice Awards 2012. Cheryl is a favorite Dancing with the Stars pro.
