Smuts... Thanks so much. The circles under my eyes just make me look like I have a black eye! LOL

Lillemor... thank you. :) How long is your hair? My hair is all one length and just past my shoulders when un curled.

Antje... Thank you. No I haven't gotten a haircut... in fact, I was thinking about how I need another one!

CherryLips... Thank you! Rawr! ;)

My hair is down to the middle of my shoulder blades/18,5" or so with 3 layers at the bottom, slight graduation on the sides, long "bangs". My super round face and flat features don't suit width at the sides. I always tuck my hair behind my ears when I set it. I don't move my parting all the way over to the temple either because it just shortens the appearance of my face. Center parts are out of question too. "Natural" side part is most flattering on me. I learn through experiments.:)

Hello Ladies,

These are a few picks of me last week. I was going for a 40's look, but I think my half pomp was to high and to off to the side!

My complexion may not be the best in the world. But when I wear makeup I look some what better. I have very oily skin and I need to get a good facial cleanser.

I'm not an expert but when I still had the hair, time, and skills I used to intentionally make the front faux pomp style high and often a bit swirvy off-side.

Today

This is the result of a set I did using many different sizes of foam rollers. Yesterday's set using pin curls was an utter disaster so this was a welcomed result. After setting my hair for all this time I still have those days where it does not come out quite right. Every set is an adventure, today's was a good one.
Forgive the "wobbliness" of the picture and the few escaped curls along the bottom of my hair.

Another WOW Clara B! I'll tell you what, if that's what foam rolers do, I'll be sure to give them a try!:)

thats gorgeous!

my current project is to perfect my sets but setting them and combing out the same way each time, I need to start knowing how my hair will turn out instead of just hoping for the best each time!

Thank you ladies!

Antje- Thanks! I just started setting my hair again after a couple month break, now I can't imagine why I stopped to begin with. The results are so worth it and look so much better than my hair does naturally.

crazydaisy- Thank you! Watch those foam rollers. My hair has to be nearly dry when I use them, otherwise my hair is still wet when I take them out the next day, even after sitting under the dryer!

Smuterella- Thanks! I think I may adopt your current project as my own, the more attention I pay to sets that fail and why, the more I will be able to prevent bad sets from happening in the first place.

Inky- Thank you! I love that wave too. I find that if I push it into my hair while it is very wet, let it dry, and then set over it with pin curls or rollers, the wave still exists after I take them out. My grandmother still wears a wave on her forehead like that, it looks fantastic in her white hair.

You ladies are all lovely:) Are we guys allowed in here? If not, feel free to delete my post..
This is how my hair looks today. Murray's Superior, Brylcreem and left parted. I'm currently growing my hair a bit, I had I buzzed quite a bit on the sides. The front goes about to the middle of my nose when undone. I'd like it a bit longer to get more up-sweep, if you know what I mean..don't know a proper english term for that. I just wish my hairline was a little less receding..I'm not losing loosing hair, it's always been like that[huh]

Okay your hair is one of the most stunning colours I have EVER seen! And that set is perfect! You absolutely must enter the MAD MEN STYLE competition I am holding.

looks great Luke 42...

Is it a little high-up (sorry, can't think of the right phrase here) in the middle on the top of your head? Or is it the picture angle, it doesn't look that way from the side shot with the part. You ARE going for a 30s or 40s WWII look, not a 50s pompadour-ish thing, RIGHT?? It really looks very good on you with the sides shorter and close around the ear -you could even go a bit shorter on the sideburns.

You are quite the handsome gent. The side shot pose is a GREAT one for you, all you need is a fedora! Thanks for sharing these pics, us gals enjoy seeing the guys' looks too.:) A well groomed, well dressed man is a joy to behold...

Your contest is brilliant! I've been paying attention to it in the Observation Bar, some brilliant entries so far. I've got something planned for it, just waiting for that something to come back from the cleaners. So much fun! :D
