It's a dress, 80s does 50s, the eyelets are fake, just a dark grey pattern!
Oooo, very sneaky, but it's got the right feel, so who cares! lol

Ok ladies, my very first tutorial, I hope you like it
I haven't posted in here for a while, maybe because I haven't thought my hair interesting enough to post about lately! But there's been some discussion about the hairband set, so I'll show my results... it didn't turn out as great as a pin curl set at all, but it gave me OK waves that lasted all day. I did it with dry hair.
my go-to hairstyle remains the scarf-roll with a few rolls at the front, I do variations at the front and dress it up or down with different scarves or use a hair rat to do the back. Sorry there's no shot of the back.
I also tried a more 'swept-back' kind of rolling the other week (which is also my avatar), my boyfriend said I looked like a geisha haha.
LinaSofia I love your hair and your blog. It would be really great if you could get some shots of how you do it at the back. Maybe even a tutorial??
Please be honest. Can I carry off Bettie bangs? I know I have a round face, but...? I also have thick, wavy, fairly dry-and-coarse hair. I was thinking cutting some bulk out might be a good idea? I just want something with a bit more "fun" to it because fingerwaves still kick my butt... after all this time!
I REALLY think about a more Louise Brooks look but I think I'm too fat.
My hair has gotten a teensy bit longer since that pic but that's basically how it is.
So pretty! That tutorial you did showing the back roll with the scarf is my go to style. Thanks! I must try it with the rolls too like your pic, please do a tutorial...PRETTY PLEASE!!!
As it has been very muggy here i have been wearing my hair pulled into a bun on top of my head, teased so it's really full and pouffy, with a hair flower or a scarf wrapped round it and received more compliments than usual..., two seconds it takes! I ask you! Perhaps it's because it's a vintage version of the Croydon face-lift and makes me look younger!
thank you so much Rosie Beau! I actually did a tutorial on how I roll it at the back a few months ago ... but I hate it! It makes me cringe big time! it's on my blog somewhere (you could do a search)... but ew ew ew I don't like it. I hope I get around to doing another one soon, I've been meaning to do a tutorial for victory rolls (and rolls in general) since I've been asked a few times now.
Here's some shots (including the back!) of my hair today...
I'll see what I can do about a tutorial then!
I do think you can pull that off crwritt but that being said I have similar problems with my rolls but for different reasons. I have very straight hair. It is fine but there is lots and lots of it so I also tend to get way too much volume in my rolls. One thing that has helped a lot is using a mascara wand to roll my rolls with it gives them a tighter roll so they aren't as big.TheredSquare, your hair looks super. Thanks especially for the birdseye view.
The other night I was fooling around with my hair, and managed some rolls. I have thick wavy somewhat coarse hair, so getting volume is not a problem. I'd like to find a way to tone that down.Since it was bedtime, I did not wear this going out, and I wonder if I'll ever manage to get it this way again.
