I used to have the world's most tangly hair, always oily at roots but very dry in general, and then I decided to get natural curls, and followed all the advice from Lorraine Massey's book. I never got curles, but my hair are so balanced and well-behaved now.
"Curly Girl: more than just hair" By Lorraine Massey with Deborah Chiel. But their advice is generally same everywhere. For example, there is a naturallycurly.com site with all the same recommendations
And I thought you were British 🤣🤣.. Yes! your accent is pretty close to the native speakers, girl.. Don't ever bother about your English again.. You have such a flawless complexion. Your skin literally glistens. Would love to know about your skincare routine..
Your English is beautiful, I adore your accent. Your pronunciations were perfect. I love this video! Such good tutorials. In the future I’d love to see you do a French twist hairstyle. It was very similar to you twisting your hair for the scarf but I’ve never been able to do it right. Have a lovely day :)
We're thrilled to have found you on RU-vid! Our daughter has a part in the local high school theater presentation, & it's an Agatha Christie play. EVERY ONE of your tutorials we viewed really helped ease away much of the anxiousness we'd subconsciously been building within BOTH me & our daughter, Halie. She's our "Late in Life Baby". All of her siblings are in their 30s-40s & have families of their own now. My husband & I have doted on her & she on us. She turns sixteen this month, AND it's the play's big debut. Halie's a beautiful girl & in the top of her class. She's the not-much-fuss type, & her wadrobe styles tend to lend more toward classic lines. Anyway, I apologize for going on in my distraction. What my daughter & I wanted to make sure to communicate to you is a sincere appreciation for your videos' spot-on vintage stylings, the simplicity of information/instructions, & in general, an overall, especially, enjoyable viewing pleasantness. My grandmother was originally from Germany. Then, as a child, my family lived on a German military base & I was able to attend a German kindergarten. Having shared that, before we'd read your background info, I mentioned to my daughter that several of the styles were surprisingly familiar to me. I remember my grandmother wearing more than a few of them. Also, your English accent seemed to be flavored with a beautiful hint of Germany. I was correct too! I must hurry now! Thank you, again for being such a wonderful blessing to us! We'll be sure to share your page with others!
Your English is excellent and your accent is charming! Thanks for this tutorial - I’m a girl who’s very lazy in the mornings and scared of burning myself with curling tongs, so these styles are perfect 😍
You'd be surprised! I haven't worn my hair in a pony tail in a LONG time. I do a side pony a lot because I am more 60s 70s influenced. But this was a good reminder that I can switch it up with a simply pony from time to time. I have naturally wavy hair but sometimes it gets frizzy and unruly and it's good to have easy styles when I don't have time. Great video! Thank you.
Dear Shirinatra: In my "travels" on the internet, I came upon one of your videos. You have a sense of style which appeals to me since I am old fashioned, in some ways, most especially when it comes to fashion. I was born in 1953. I was born an artist, and as a little girl, I was very aware of fashion (among many other things). I remember pouring through some of my mother's magazines which included tons of Dior inspired fashion. Needless to say, I was smitten with Dior. To this day, I still adhere to the basic Dior fashion ideology. There is a romanticism to it. That, of course, is my own personal fashion philosophy. Then in 1963, Jackie Kennedy became First Lady of the United States, and my eyes became "fastened" on her. Although I had been an Audrey Hepburn fan (Givenchy's fashion muse), it was Jackie's style I fell in love with. For me she has been, and continues to be, the "it" fashion icon, my "go to" when it comes to fashion ideas. There was something about Jackie. The fact that she was a Leo with Scorpio rising, probably had a lot to do with it. As you can tell, I love fashion, and I view it as one of many expressions of the self, so I enjoy your videos immensely. On this particular one, I noticed at the end, the concern you expressed regarding your accent (since English is not your native language). Having been born and raised in New York City, if there is anything I became used to and fell in love with, was the variety of foreign accents one hears almost daily. At a young age, I became aware that the world is a rather big place, and what a wonderful thing that is. Wanting to improve and build one's vocabulary is always a wonderful goal. Trying to get rid of one's accent is not exactly a desirable goal. You are lovely, and so is your accent. It is part of what makes you, you! So you needn't worry. As I mentioned earlier, I was born and raised in New York City, to Puerto Rican parents. The first language I learned was Spanish. I speak, read and write it. On occasion when speaking Spanish in public, I've been told by some ignorant person, to "Speak English. This is America." I've kindly informed them that, "Yes, this is America, and America is the land of immigrants!" My maternal grandfather was French, so I'd better get busy learning French. Oui? Vive la difference!!! I'm so sorry to have gone on for so long. Keep up the good work!
Love, love these styles! Wish I had seen your tutorials last weekend when I went to Viva Las Vegas. But I’m saving them now for next year! Thank YOU, darling! 🙏🙏🙏♥️♥️♥️
This is such a nice video and you have a very calm way of speaking. (That’s very refreshing on RU-vid.) Unique hairstyles and not just your average ‘messy bun’. Loved the last one and will be trying that for sure❤️
Found your channel today!! I was looking up easy vintage hairstyles and found this video! I’ve been collecting vintage reproduction clothing and transforming my wardrobe over the last five or six years and I’ve always been intimidated by the hairstyles as I also have naturally straight hair. I usually do some twists and a hair flower so this is very helpful!
You are so charming! I appreciate your straightforward manner; you’re not over the top exuberant the way Americans are. That’s a compliment. You’re very elegant and understated. Thanks for the great video!
i dont know if this wont sound weird??? but your face shape is sooo pretty!!! you are overall really beautiful. your english is great and you are soo precious
i already wear all of these except the last one which is a bit out of my comfort zone but im going to try it! seeing you live your best vintage life inspires me a lot, since we are the same age so its more relateable then some other vintage ladies haha so thank you 😊
I find your video very interesting! Thank you! I was looking for very simple and classic hairstyles and I think that your video is the best that I found so far! Don't worry that the hairstyles in the beginning are too simple, I was looking exactly for something like that! So, thank you! All the best!😊
I just found your video and went straight to Amazon to find those H&M headbands, and I found a 15 pack with every color of the rainbow for only $22 USD 🥰 thank you so much! I love headbands, but most are too flat for me because my hair is so big and curly that headbands disappear from sight in my hair lol. These H&M ones have that cute turban knot on top, j'adore! 🥰🤗 it gives them enough volume so that they're visible in my mass of curls. Thank you!!
I just discovered your channel and I absolutely loved the video! You have such a calming presence and your English is pretty good. I'm a non native English speaker myself and I can understand the struggle that comes with speaking another language- the insecurity of sounding wrong, the fear of using the wrong words, translating everything in your head so your speech is slowed down, not remembering specific words at that moment, etc. I'm looking forward to seeing more such amazing content from you! All the best! 😊
Your accent is so mixed!! The pronunciation is good, but it sounds like you learned different words from different countries! ...with Australian, and Irish, and various English accents, and even French! So cute! : ) The words you were looking for with the scarf, were "corners " though you could have said "ends' or even at one stage, " bunny ears"... ; ) You are a very beautiful girl. Thank you for the tips. I could never quite get my scarf to sit right, so I am glad that i found you : )
i already wear all of these except the last one which is a bit out of my comfort zone but im going to try it! seeing you live your best vintage life inspires me a lot, since we are the same age so its more relateable then some other vintage ladies haha so thank you
Great video! Your eye makeup is PERFECT, btw. Love all of these looks and how just small touches can give an ordinary hairdo a retro vibe. Genius! Your English is lovely.
I just found your channel and also just found out that you are from germany! (I'm from germany too:) and i didn't even noticed that you weren't a native english speaker until i read the comments😂) and i must say: i love your style and your videos
I’m an English teacher, a fellow German native speaker and had accent training classes when studying English at university. Your accent is fine and very intelligible, you have nothing to worry about! Be proud of yourself :-)
One of my best friends’ names is Shirin too, she’s from Iran, and you remind me a lot of her ❤️☺️ You’re so pretty!!! Keep making such great videos!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾❤️❤️❤️
I just found your channel, and I absolutely love it! I also love anything vintage and your style is so lovely and graceful ❤️ you just got a new subscriber 😘
You’re beautiful and your English is lovely. I always admire people who can speak more than one language. ❤️ I’m learning Spanish but am not fluent yet. I wish I knew more. I think it’s just beautiful to know other languages. So.. anyways, just wanted to say you’re doing wonderfully. So glad I found this channel bc I wanted to learn to do something vintage inspired w my hair! 😂 hope everyone here is well and staying healthy 💙
I've just discovered your channel and I must say: You are so beautiful, I love your hair and the color of it! These hairstyles are just perfect for me and my laziness, haha! And don't worry, your English is great!
It’s a velvet hair band specifically used for wigs or to be put under hair wraps. If you type in velvet wig band on amazon it should come up. They’re v comfy!
I'm a brand new subscriber. Thank you for this video! I have very long hair, and I'm frequently looking for new styles...especially easy to replicate ones. 😊❤ You're so lovely. Thank you.
I love vintage. Your channel is great. I will subscribe cause you're very original. My mom, grandmother n ancestors taught us how to tie a scarf like this. The scarf is really pretty on u. Congrats 2 ur wonderful channel.
Haha thank you! It's probably because I twisted my hair into the chignon. It always gives my hair a bit more texture. I have some layers but it's not too crazy! I don't really have a specific cut 🙂
I never would have guessed you aren't a native speaker! Your English is excellent and your accent is so close to clear pronunciation. Thanks for the video. It was very informative. :)
Hey darling! I found you on Instagram and just subscribed. I love everything you're doing 💕 Don't beat yourself up about English. Your accent is lovely. I'm an American and English is just plain difficult!
I’m so impressed by your English. We Americans tend to be more lazy and sloppy in our pronunciation and enunciation. I’m working on getting better by listening to people like you. 💕 And I enjoyed the hair tutorial very much.
Hello Shirin! I’m a new subscriber and follower on instagram. I am in love with your style and I think you’re gorgeous and extremely elegant. Also I think your english and pronunciation are so good! Of course it’s not my native language either and I have to say I find your speaking very clear and understandable. I know sometimes it’s hard but really try not to care about mean comments and stuff like that. They’re just jealous and empty inside! 😅 keep up the good work! Kisses from Italy
Your hair is gorgeous. My hair is super long and I don't know what to do with it, so thank you for the inspiritation. Love the chignon knot, I'd love to try it 🤗
I don't really have a routine. I just wash my hair with Schauma Coconut shampoo whenever my hair is dirty, which is like once or twice a week. That's all I do 🙂
Omg that's the first video I watch from you and I really thought you're from Ireland or something like that because your accent doesn't sound German😂 Ich bin total beeindruckt von dir und deinem Englisch! Du siehst so unfassbar hübsch aus und bitte gib mir ein paar Tipps wo man diese tollen Vintage Möbel findet denn ich bin auch ein riesen Vintage fan❤️❤️
