Show us your hair do's....

belated happy birthday SheBear! That cheesecake is immense!

I finally got back into setting my hair! I got really disheartened with setting it a couple of months ago when it flopped spectacularly one windy day, but a couple of days ago I decided to give it another go! It does feel so nice to have "proper" hair again!
This is the second day of a foam roller set.

(hope the picture isn't huge)

[Oh lala!]

I love it! It's really flattering

 

[LinaSofia]

thank you Katinka and SheBear!
Isis - I love it! I'm going to try the same!

My attempt at Betty Draper hair...

You can read how I did it here, if you want!

 

[Highball Emy]

Isis - I love the braid. I want to try something like that, but the colours they have never match my hair!

I just did one big roll on top and put my hair in a ponytail with some flowers.

Love it!!!!
and all lovely hair ladies!!
I will post some real soon

 

[Juliet]

I apologise for posting SUCH horrid pictures - I wish one of you lovely ladies would make a tutorial on how to take decent pictures of a hairdo without resorting to mirrors and terrible lighting and awkward angles.
But I'm so excited right now, as quite suddenly a bad hair day turned into a Betty Grable do! I've never managed one of those before!

Thanks hon - your bracelet was actually involved in that ensemble, but you can't see it in the photos!

Juliet, your hair looks GREAT... that style looks really good on you. I've never tried it because I'm scared I'll look like a poodle!

I put some Manic Panic Rock-n-Roll red over the faded black, pincurl set, two V rolls and a roll in my Bettie bangs. I am still going back and forth on the bangs.

 

[Miss Retro]

all your hair looks lovely.I'm trying to grow mine into a bob and it seems to be taking forever. Mines dyed black and want to change it to red or black/red.What would you suggest?

 

[Retro_GI_Jane]

Juliet, I love your 'do! It takes me forever it seems to make my fake poodle bangs look natural...I'm envious of yours!

Today I bring you lovely ladies an updo. I set my hair on a whim last night but decided ahead of time on a vintage inspired updo since it (was) rainy and breezy today. Also the A/C is on the fritz at my job and I hate dealing with hair down in the heat.

The back is pulled into a ponytail and the curls run through with some pomade and pinned into a chignon. It's supposed to be a little more off to the side but for some reason, my hands decided everything must be centered!

I'm thinking this would be a great do for a tilt hat since there are no curls on the other side of the face. I'm toying with the idea of wearing my hair like this for a friend's wedding since we'll be outside on a riverbank in July.

I have the same hairclip in black, but have been unable to wear it since I colored my hair black. I love it and I think your hair looks fantastic, Retro_GI_Jane!

 

[Retro_GI_Jane]

Thanks and welcome to the FL, sadkinson! I didn't know there was a black one! We might have to switch, lol!

 

[katiesparkles]

Uh, where is that clip from ladies? Looks cute!

Your up do is lovely, Retro_GI_Jane, how long did it take you to pin everything in place in the black? It looks so glamorous!

 

[Retro_GI_Jane]

Aww, shucks, Katie, thanks! I found the clip at Wal-Mart. Pinning everything in the back took me about 20 minutes I think, which included my brush out and getting the crown smooth from flyaways, but it was the first time I've done this 'do. I just sat in the living room in the dark and went by touch and looked at it from a mirror when I was done!
