So I need my hair up for work ( I work in a Retro sweet shop) so I thought it would be fitting if I did some vintage updos however all I know is victory rolls. My hair is medium length just skimming my collar bone. 

I've attached a picture of me with victory rolls with the back curled to give you an idea on length and my face shape. 

Thanks in Advance

A Beehive would look great on you, 

You could also probably pull off a side braid look really well, 

your hair might not be long enough for a mermaid bun but you can give it a shot as that always looks fabulous. 

last but not least, you can never really go wrong with a good old fashioned side bun

*basic sock bun, you can do it way lower and to the side so it looks more vintage, you can also braid some of your hair before rolling it to make it fuller and a little neater

since it's a candy shop, you might be able to pull this off! 

I love this style! Thanks for sharing.:)

I have a couple of snoods/hair nets and I love them. I'm not great with hair, but these are so easy to pop your hair in and go - all you need is a couple of bobby pins and you're set! I have a couple of flower clips that I like to add too, to make them look a little less factory-worker esq! 

I've never been able to do victory rolls :c I love barrel rolls and faux beehives! Maybe you could invest in the vintage hairstyling book from PUG, it has been a godsend for me c;

You could get one of these doodads, I have one that I make my bumper bangs with, but you could use it in the back of your hair too for a roll or a bun, got it at Sally Beauty Supply
