Thank you for your warm welcome,

I have to admit that I'm a hairdresser so that is maybe why my pincurls turned out like this.
But it is more difficult with my own hair than working with clients.

I've tried some fingerwaves ones, but that's really difficult.

I hope I can inspire you even more with my hairdo's en I hope that you will inspire me ( you actualy did because I found this site when I was looking foor cool hairstyle's)

Your hair is beautiful. I really need to master pincurls because the curling iron is ruining my hair.

and thanks for the compliments everyone. They mean alot coming from ladies who really now how vintage hair should look.

My hair today. Done with pin curls.

And this is how I wore my hair some days ago on my birthday. I did this with a combination of pin curls and curling iron, mostly the curling iron.

Okay Johanna, I think we all need to take a trip to Sweden so you can teach us some hairstylin' tips! You just look gorgeous! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

I did try to follow the pictures you put up of how you do your pincurls. But I used the pillow curlers to make the curls. I forgot to just take a picture without my hat, but it came out pretty good. But it was sooo curly at first. This was taken after being out in the heat all day and it had fallen some.

Johanna, simply stunning!
Do you sleep in your pin curls? I sure wish I could sleep in them but I usually end up tossing and turning.

I do! I like being able to take them out and style the hair first thing in the morning. It's not exactly comfortable though. Thank you! And thanks texasgirl!

Thanks ya'll! No that's my hubby- and ya'll are going to give him a big head-lol. He does get that occasionally. Actually he gets all kinds of actors people think he looks like. We were in Galveston over Labor day and the waitor at the hotel thought he was Jack on Young and the Restless-lol. And he was like no, but the waitor was like- are you sure- I won't tell anyone :) His avatar really looks like Dennis Quaid though I think http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showpost.php?p=402448&postcount=21

And, yes the hat is vintage, I got it recently on eBay :)

Some more recent of my attempts:

Women's Land Army:

Used a bun roll cut in half to create a roll for my hair, used a side parting, curled and tucked my fringe under, then used an original 1940's scarf to keep it secure and tidy :)

Todays hair. First time I tried it and kinda made it up as I went along, so a little messy, but definitely something I'd like to improve on.
