Vintagehair, I have failed thee

miss_tami_lee wrote in vintagehair Dec 02, 2009 20:37

I intended on putting together a all-inclusive fingerwaves tutorial that shows all three methods of fingerwaving. But no matter how many times I tried I just cannot remember my setting pattern for pin curled fingerwaves. They just aren't turning out the way I want! Grrr. So no pin curl tut for now. But I did make one for actual finger sculpted ( Read more... )

My fiance and I are planning a vegas elvis wedding, and being as unconventional and fun as I am I'm wearing a 50's style gold halter dress with a black swiss dot lace overlay (and black petticoat of course!). I'm planning on making my own veil/fascinator with a netting to match the overlay on my dress. I've tried finding pictures of hair with a ( Read more... )

Hair styles for men?

Are there any 'vintage' styles that anyone could inform me of that would NOT include my hair being longer? It seems the most common style includes slicked back hair, but i like mine high and tight, I find it most comfortable that way ( Read more... )

deux questionnes

fame wrote in vintagehair Nov 17, 2009 20:51

1. When I do attempt pincurls, the curl is too thick to pin down without leaving a mark. Any suggestions? Am I doing something wrong?

2. I bought some Solo clips, thinking they're what you use for fingerwaves. Am I totally wrong, or can these be used? How and where do you pin the curl, then, without messing it up?

Thanks for the help!

all about setting lotion.

rabbitron_chan wrote in vintagehair Nov 17, 2009 15:03

HALP!
I really don't know much about setting lotion, or how to roll a set with said product.
Tips?
Advice?
Stories?
Something?
What do I buy? Do I use foam rollers? Can I just use pincurls?
Any direction would be highly appreciated :)

EDITED! Sophia Loren hair

So I am supposed to get my haircut on Thursday.. and I am thinking of getting a cut similar to these photos of Sophia Loren.

Do you think this is a good cut for me/easy to style? I am a little worried about going so short, my hair is like a security blanket!
