<p>I am brand new to vintage styling and have realllllly long hair... It is practically impossible for me to keep it curly, but I don't want to cut it yet.... My question is, will these curlers give me the bounce I need to achieve vintage looks, or do you think they are the wrong type of curl? They cost $65 and I am feeling pretty guilty about the price...

I would love to master something like victory rolls, but I am definitely not there yet! My hair is longer than this, but something similar to this is what I am trying to do...<img src="http://woohair.com/large/Vintage_Hairstyle_For_Long_Hair_13.jpg"/>...</p>

<p></p> Vintage Hair Styles to Weather Bad Hair Days? (pun intended)tag:www.pinupgirlstyle.com,2013-03-07:6504043:Topic:1903832013-03-07T19:02:28.036ZLady Khttp://www.pinupgirlstyle.com/profile/IreneK
<p>Hi ladies,</p>
<p>It seems like for the past month, every day has been a bad hair day here. It has been raining, humid and/or windy and it has been nearly impossible for me to find a vintage style that will hold up under these conditions! Particularly because I have fine, naturally straight hair that barely holds a curl under perfect weather conditions. My every day look is hair down, set in pin curls and brushed out. Since this style doesn't hold up well in bad weather, I'm looking for any…</p>
<p>Hi ladies,</p>
<p>It seems like for the past month, every day has been a bad hair day here. It has been raining, humid and/or windy and it has been nearly impossible for me to find a vintage style that will hold up under these conditions! Particularly because I have fine, naturally straight hair that barely holds a curl under perfect weather conditions. My every day look is hair down, set in pin curls and brushed out. Since this style doesn't hold up well in bad weather, I'm looking for any tips or advice you ladies can offer for alternative hair styles. How do you style your hair pinup/vintage when the weather is not cooperative? What hair products do you find helpful in holding up your style?</p>
<p>Thanks!! XOXO</p> Pincurls are amazing... like for realtag:www.pinupgirlstyle.com,2012-11-08:6504043:Topic:1478212012-11-08T02:08:03.802ZViola Von Kittenhttp://www.pinupgirlstyle.com/profile/ViolaVonKitten
<p>..like if you pretty ladies didn't already knew that ! :)</p>
<p>Pin curling is, hands down, the best technique to achieve vintage hairstyle. Women of the 40s...til the early 60s religiously pin curled their hair every night before going to sleep. It was the « base » of almost every popular hair styles of the time wether your hair was short or long.</p>

<p>As every « newbie pin curler », I'm aware of how frustrating it can get when you feel overwhelmed by spending 30min/1hour at night to have nice looking hair in the morning...</p>
<p>Fact is itsn't difficult to master BUT it does take time...</p>
<p>When it comes to doing my hair I must be one of the laziest girl I can think of... but I decided it was time to « cut that shit » (sorry for that :D) & start pin curling on a daily basis :).</p>
<p>I wanted to show you pics of the past couple days because it feels good when hard work finally starts to pay.</p>
<p>This is how my 5<sup>th</sup> pincurl set ever turned out. I tried the « alternate pincurls » technique (1 row clockwise & 1 row counter clockwive) also lnow as the pin curl wave.</p>
<p>Picture 1 is how the set turned out on day 1.</p>
<p>Picture 2 & 3 is how the same set turned out on day 2. (I re-pinned everything dry in place before bed)</p>
<p>This demonstrate the versatility of styling options pincurls give & also that spending a little time every night allow you to get 2 or more days (depending on your hair type/texture) of vintage hair.</p>
<p>I was happy with the result & it really motivates me to keep up with this gorgeous & healthy curling technique. :)</p>
<p>I feel I'm learning more everytime I'm doing it ! It's so cool !</p>
