I’ve always been a huge fan of looking to the past for inspiration. Especially when we live in a time where almost everything has been done before, why not take an old classic look, and revamp it for the modern-day! One of my favorite iconic styles is the pin-up girl! Vintage, a little edgy and extremely glamorous, this old school style is perfect for the modern-day girl. Check out the steps below to master this classic ‘do’!

Step 1 - As always, start with tangle free, brushed hair. This is totally up to you, but for the best, authentic looking results, curl all of your hair with a curling iron. This will add to the glam effect once it’s finished!
Steps 2, 3, 4, & 5 - Once all of your hair is curled, take the front section of your hair (you can start on whichever side you prefer!). Take a section and tease it from the back, then brush to smooth it in the front. Then, wrap it in a loop around 2-3 of your fingers. You’ll want to go in the natural direction of your hair, which is looping to the back. Once you loop your hair in to the scalp, secure with as many bobby pins as you need. Then hairspray that section. (more…)
