a look to the 40's

I've had an infatuation as of late with 1940's hairstyling. I mean seriously. How could I not indulged in such bliss before? The innate, unique beauty is simply stunning. Can you tell I'm in love? *laughter* I adore the simplistic, yet
sophisticated styles of Victory Rolls, and the way the curls fall towards the face. Even during a time of war, women strived to keep a touch of glamour in their hairstyles from long wavy shoulder length waves to soft ringlets.



Why the sudden infatuation, you might ask? Well, you see, we had a class on retro hairstyling a few weeks back, and ever since I've been hooked. I've always sort of dabbled in vintage styles, or at least always admired those who can pull it off, so retro hairstyling is right up my alley. Besides, even Katy Perry has been seen sporting such as of late.

Perhaps this is the reason of their return in popularity today. A vintage hairstyle paired with a vintage wedding dress is nothing short of fabulous and for the bride wishing something unique but still classic for her wedding day, the vintage styles are perfect.The same applies for proms and formal events taking your look to the elegance and grace of the golden age of Hollywood.

These hairstyles capture sexy glamour, class, polish and mystery to a women’s look and our look today must be unique and individual, yet still trendy and up to the minute in style. Vintage hairstyles do all that and more.
