Does anyone love pinupgirl/rockabilly styles?

[cdonald2]

I know i do!!!! its a big reason i miss my longer hair, I used to pull off the victory rolls like noones business!

Anyways, for those of you who are, I have to recommend a site:
Pinupgirlclothing.com

Honestly everything I have ordered there is amazing quality, Their dresses are SO flattering and extremely well made! I have this dress in black: http://www.pinupgirlclothing.com/monica-dress-purple.html and its amazing!!!! worth every cent!

I wasnt sure if anyone has any sepcial events such as weddings etc. But honestly, if you do, try finding something here. Theyre so beautiful and unique looking :)

Additionally, I think it would be fun to open up a pinup girl fashion/hair/makeup thread if it hasnt been done already. Any designers/ styles that you ladies love? I am a big fan of Betsey Johnson myself

MEMEMEMEMEMEEEEE! I have too long hair for the era, but I am deeply in love with 50's house wife type of a clothing :) From Pinup Girl Clothing i have few Heidi dresses, couple of tops and the purple dress that you showed but in red :D I wish I could buy more from them, but unfortunantly customs are just too big to buy from US often :(

I long for hair that length but somewhat shorter in front so i can do just that style.

Completely off topic but i would love to see one of the LHC members do sailor moon's odango style.

[StellaKatherine]

Those are beautiful ! My hair basically mostly same lenght.... I like braiding so much that I will never make my hair shorter even for the victory rolls ;)

[SkyChild]

I absolutely LOVE this look!
I rock it quite well. My style icon is Imelda May, the rockabilly singer.
I love the dresses and have been known more than once to get into full 50s style dress and heels, hair and makeup just to do the dishes or cook a meal - somehow I feel like a domestic goddess when dressed as a 50s housewife!
I'll have a look at those dresses... I mostly get them from friends or charity shops but have always wanted to pluck up the courage to buy a new one.

I love this look!

It's like a feminine version of Wolverines hair :)
I must try it.

[Catatafish]

Does anybody know how to do it, or what it's called? It doesn't look quite like the victory rolls I've seen.

[cdonald2]

Theyre Victory rolls, but instead of doing an upward or forward victory roll they are to the back and up the sides i think

[SkyChild]

Yup. They're so cute too. I can imagine wearing them to a comic-con or something to be Wolverine.

I do!
I'm a little older than most pinup fans, but have sported a retro hairstyle or two during my grow-out. My hair is almost too long for it now, but there are other styles I can explore!
Here's one from this spring.

I wore it this way to church, but didn't decide to share it with TLHC until later in the day. (It's messy, but you get the idea?)

Actually I know many pinup ladies who are around your age! I think age doesn't matter when it comes to looking femenine ;) Love that hairdo of your! :flowers:

[spidermom]

I like it, too. I don't usually take the time, though.

[Sagi1982]

I love it, it seems so laid-back. :flower:

Yes… but HOW? xD

[StellaKatherine]

The bad thing about pinup hair styles, that for example victory rolls need a lot of teasing. You can do them with rollers, but they wont stay like that without teasing... Not a good thing for hair :) I am thinking of trying this one ;)

[Majorane]

Yeahm that's the main reason why I never went into the full blown victory rolls: the teasin' and the curlin'! Also I can't bobbypin invisibly, so there's an unsightly bobbyX in each of my rolls, but that would improve with practice. Does anyone has a hairfriendly tutorial?

[StellaKatherine]

Here is a tutorial for long hair without teasing, curling or any products

LeoLilie, a German YouTuber, does lots of pin up and rockabella styles on long hair w/o teasing or heat.
