Buy yourself a velvet headband for under the scarf. You will be amazed at how well your scarf stays on. I was sceptical but I'm so glad I tried it, there's no going back. X
GORGEOUS STYLES!!! I am so insecure about wearing head scarves but totally want to wear them more. Just found your channel!!!! Hope you post more vintage hair/fashion videos!
Thanks for the encouragement! I will be adding a bunch more this month! Definitely rock the headscarves, they're so convenient for busy and lazy days. Loved checking out your channel btw -- you have a beautiful voice! xxx
Thank you for this video. It rains half of the year in my country and it is very diffucult to style my hair. These are very cute and easy to do hairstyles.
I used victory rolls when I was in the military in Germany. I was at a NATO HQ so I had to keep my hair nice. It worked really nice with the military hat.
The second look is so so cute (well, they all are), I wish I could do it, but I don't have a scarf that size, and all my hair fell out😭 Great video, it gives me something to hope for😊
I like to clip those scarves down with the almond shaped metal ones ( what are those called) they look classic and elegant and you won't be fixing the scarf so much. Bobby pins work ok too but the clips are best
I've never seen the 2nd way of wearing a scarf but I love it! Very 1940's. I recently bought a few vintage style bonnets from a company called The Bonnit. Very cute retro designs to keep our vintage hair dry in the rain. ⛆
Oh! thats how you tie a large scarf on your head!! Now I know why this damned thing always comes off😂 Thankyou for this step by step as I have never watched anyone do it. You really do learn new things everyday😄😄
Interesting video! I'm not one for wearing head scarves, but I like the vintage hairdos. However, that last one, which we call "chignon banane" in French, I have never managed to succeed in doing, haha! I hope your video will help me achievethe look, as I find this particular hairstyle so elegant.
I've picked my up oveer the years, all from vintage and thrift stores in giant baskets full of scarves. I find almost every second hand and vintage store has a big basket of scarves near the register.
All three are gorgeous. :) I bought two headscarves recently which are 70cm x 70cm which were of the larger variety that I could find online, so I assumed they were more than big enough. Either they're not or I just have a huge head, LOL. Could you let me know the dimensions of yours in the video MB? Also where do you find such pretty patterned scarves? I've searched 'head scarf' and 'square neck scarf' among others but the results are always very plain, like single colour scarves.
The second look uses a 70cm scarf but I struggle to do the first look with it. My guess would be the bigger one is roughly 90cm. In terms of finding the scarves. I have zero luck online with scarves. I just pick them up whenever I spot them in op-shops or second hand shops.
Hello... what size scarf did you use for the first style. How many inches square? I see where a large scarf is needed to tuck in, to get that hat -style!
Firstly this Woman is Gorgeous! 2ndly, why do these vintage enthusiast you tubers always have such thick lovely hair...I have thinning hair and which makes achieving these styles nearly impossible. Ughhhh. Sorry, but feeling some serious hair envy. So, 1st step one is actually get a wig or have naturaly thick hair.
Lovely! Can't wait to have a go. There's a vintage clothes fair where I live and I picked up a whole set of scarves that I use to wrap gifts - reuse and recycle :)
I just started getting into turbans! Would love to see if you can show us different hairstyles while wearing the turban (would love to be able to make them to look fancier so maybe I could wear them to work) 😂
I used to have hair past my waist, and the way I did it was this. 1) Brush all hair smoothly to the nape of your neck as if you're making a very low ponytail at the very base of your head. 2) Twist all of your hair at the nape of your neck very tightly, all the way down the length of your hair. 3) Pull your twisted rope of hair straight up over your head and gently push the hairs near the base of the rope up along the back of your head where you want the chignon to be. This will make the smooth final shape of your chignon. 4) Keep your twisted rope of hair tight so it begins to roll into itself. Neatly tuck the rest of this length of hair rope under your chignon to give it volume in the back. 5) Pin the smooth chignon over the pile of hair, hairspray it, and you're all set.
This is quite an old video. I did several makeup tutorials, within the same month I made this video, that you'll find in my Vintage Tips & Tricks playlist 😊👍
Linellin Rivaille-Nightray try tying into into a looped ponytail (so it's half as long) loosen the tie 2/3 of the way down the length of your hair, and then roll it up.
The second style looks almost exactly like what the local Russian-American girls wear. They come from a traditional religion and must wear their hair covered. The "caps" are handmade often with headbands sewn inside, and made to match beautiful, vibrant homemade dresses.
Hey darl. Thanks! This is a super old video. I've come a long way since then 🙂 Do check out my more recent ones and hopefully you'll find it a bit easier to see what I'm doing xx
Weird question...but does anyone have tips for wearing vintage hair and workouts? Someone said to work out in the evenings and do my hair after but because of work I can only workout in the mornings. Does anyone have any tips about what they do hen they wear vintage hair and how to protect it when working out? Or what to do when it’s gym time
siren electric hey I do this all the time! I used to just tie it into a ponytail, and then when you go to shower use a nice tight fitting shower cap. Keep it out of your face and towel off often so you’re not getting sweat in it if you’re very sweaty (I’m not, so I’m lucky in that sense). Nowadays that the weather is cooler I just do a turban around my hair and workout in the turban. The turban Is better because using an elastic can mess up certain styles. I use a light breathable soft cotton scarf so it doesn’t make me too hot. Of course you could just tie the scarf arouNd your hair with your rollers, go to the gym like that and then brush out after you work out, but I prefer to just do it at home and then protect my set while I work out with my scarf .
Tokki A thank you so much!! Love these ideas! Will probably try all 3 you suggested and see which I prefer. But I actually think I may lean towards brushing out my hair at home and just protecting it like you said Thank you! Sorry for the late reply never got notified 😂
