Thanks! Now I have it all pinned up and pulled back to go get sweaty in the garage with a good workout. And it still looks cute! Yay!

Marla said...

LOVE IT! And as always I'm floored by how pretty you are!

Erin said...

Thank you Marla! What a great way to start my day. Also, we did take pictures wearing vintage stuff and as soon as my friend posts them to me I will put some up. I'm also going to be trying out some stuff from a vintage hair community site-I have yet to find any slinky like apparatus for hairdos so you have to send me a link on that.

I couldn't find any really good links, I guess it's hard to find instructions for a 60-year-old hairdo! But there's this:

that's essentially what I remember my mother having - they're either tubes or doughnut-shaped, and you wrap your hair around them. I think that's how those 1940s chicks got that hairstyle with the big lifted up sides.

Ahh I see, I've seen something like that when people do victory rolls (one of the on the side of the head lifted up side styles)and I wondered about that. Awesome! I wish I knew someone IRL to tutor me in the ways of old school glam.

Yeah, I'm not quite old enough for that ;-). maybe a field trip to the local nursing home...
