Veronica Lake Inspired 1940s Hair Tutorial Details


I love retro glamour. I think it's a fun way to play dress up, no matter what age you are! I didn't intend this hair style to be reminiscent of Veronica Lake but that's what most of you described it as so Ms. Lake inspired it is. I hope you enjoy the tutorial and remember, it's all about brushing out the hair!



By the way, the Babyliss hot rollers I used can be found at Flat Iron Experts, non-affiliated link here: http://www.flatironexperts.com/Babyliss-Electric-Ceramic-Ionic-Hot-Roller-p/babhs40c.htm.
I had the very same set in high school [minus the nifty, useful new pull-out stand] and it was well-loved by both me and my twin sister!

  2. Hi Rei, i only stumbled upon your YouTube yesterday and i have to say i really enjoy your videos and have found them to be very helpful so thank you. Instead of starting my assignment like i was suppose to, i watched your videos instead hahah. I'm traveling during the holidays and wondered if you would recommend any makeup bags? It's too bad the limited edition Bobbi Brown one you featured is no longer available.
