Riot: you sound like my husband. He is a German armor expert. He is OBSESSED with anything German WW2 armor related. He even has a Tiger tank tattoo. I used to have a hamster named Rommel. hahaha -
Vintage styles for short hair
i just found a printout someone made for me that explains the U cut. the last 2 measurements were cut off on the botton right. they should be 4 1/2" and 6". this is from a modern book but i don't know which one. i just have a few printouts. -

blackcigarette: as for brushing your hair all day long, i have found that the shorter your hair, the less you have to brush it. As for the U cut, I think your hairdresser will know what it is if you ask her. Ihr Englisch ist fein. -
In which WWII army should you have fought?
I emailed this quiz to my good friend who is currently serving in the Army. He's in his mid-30s and has been in the Army since he was 18. A "gung-ho" kinda guy. His result was the French. HAHAHAH. man was he mad about that. I couldn't stop laughing for a good 10 min. -

Your most non-vintage preference or attributes ...

Vintage styles for short hair
i have thin hair too and the longer it gets, the thinner it seems to get. it doesn't hold any curl when it's past my shoulders. and if I pull my sides up, the hair that hangs down, looks so thin and limp. and if i don't brush my hair every 30 minutes, it looks terrible. and who has time for... -

Vintage styles for short hair
look at this website http://www.moviemaidens.com/ in the 1930's column, look at "Alice White". she has a nice short hairstyle with bangs. i think a lot of us have a similar haircut. this is a good website for ideas.
