This is absolutely lovely, but the way you explained how we need to brush the hair into submission just cracked me up for some reason😄 I really like this video

My mother leaned to be a hair dresser in the late 1940's and I can't tell you how many times she pin-curled my hair and then sent me out to sit in the sun with a book on a small stool while my hair dried and she did the same to my sister. Then she would set her own and rush us all through getting ready to leave, drying her own hair in the open window of the car. Removal of the pins near the destination and a quick brush and she had beautiful hair. Years later, for my college graduation a friend wanted a curly style for her hair and I suggested pin curls....and set her hair. A scarf kept the pins in place overnight and she had riotous curls under her cap. Thanks for bringing up that lovely memory.

Women spend much more time today. Back then they often did overnight curls and just a tad of lipstick, if any. Maybe a dab of powder. It's a misconception that they wore a lot of makeup and spent a lot of time on the hair. Nowadays... well.. Foundation, blush, lipliner, eyebrows, baking, highlighting etc etc etc..

@@Amoroussparkle not to mention extremely complex skincare routines, hair care routines, hair styling and upkeep if you dye your hair, etc also we now shave a LOT more than we used to, especially pubic hair, which wasnt a trend until the late 90s. our beauty standards are even more unrealistic, esp. with the trend of "slim thick" which usually requires fat transfer surgery and lipsuction for the average woman to achieve... on the bright side, women get to do all of the housework/childrearing AND juggle a job on top of that. woohoo?

it’s a LOT of work not just effort and a bit of trying. If I had someone who basically owned me, through marriage, finances all the beauty stuff, gives me a huge allowance and my job was the house, kids and looking pretty. Then it’s certainly achievable. Still I’d rather spend my time being my own rich man and doing hours of doing hair like this for a wedding or a birthday.

How do you maintain a hairstyle like this without having to re-do it every night? Like two or three day hair?

When women said they were staying in to wash their hair- they really meant it!

This is probably the absolute best vintage hair styling tutorial I have ever watched. Makes it all crystal clear ! Amazing job.

You are an artist! I used to watch my grandmother doing her hair and was fascinated at how she did a beehive so perfectly. I would also watch her as a little boy applying her makeup early in the morning, putting on her fragrances, and picking which stilettos to wear. This is so fascinating and beautiful and this should be an art forever preserved. Thank you for posting!

I never even realized there was such an art to pin curling. Whenever my mom would pin curl my hair she would do them all tight to my scalp in random directions evenly across my head and when they came out I'd look a bit like a poodle (an adorable poodle, and my hair could never keep a curl very long anyway, haha) and I would wonder how on earth these ladies back in the 40s or whenever got their hair to look so elegant and put together. Now I know.

Retired after doing hair for 47 years (4 yrs ago); got my license in 1969. Beauty school was all older ladies and all pin curls, very few roller sets even then. I continued doing pin curls on people until I retired. I had several older women that NEVER changed their style! I remember doing my grandma's hair in pin curls....forward / reverse waves all over. One day we went over to my aunts and she was there and my aunt was putting rollers in her hair!! I said what the heck grandma....she said I needed the practice...lol By the way, the only way to make those styles stay is to use a styling lotion that was the consistency of 'snot'...and that's what we called it...

I learned Cosmetology in the 90s. We first learned finger waves, pin curls and roller sets. Setting all the hair with that "snot" we called lacquer spent hrs practicing as the practical part of our state test depended on it. Pin curls were my favorite. A good set could last a week.

@@bobcharlie2337 do you know if this particular hairstyle with the pin curl method is achievable for very long hair (around 30”)?

I have just learned that all the times I failed and then gave up on curling my hair with a wet set is because I didn't brush it enough.... 'brush your hair into submission' is such a powerful line.

This is the hairstyle I want when I get married 😍

Oh my, if you like retro hairdos look at more old pictures. There are even better dos.

I recently did this and posted my results on Instagram. I’m trying it again tonight, don’t give up if pincurls are hard at first

This takes me back to beauty school. I got my license in 1970. We still did a lot of pin curl styles then. Thank you for sharing.

This is an ART! Beautiful work, great explanation. Thank you!

I remember this well I'm 68 and my mom always pin curled our hair those were the days and I truly miss them especially now days

I wore my hair like this to my 1998 prom. I wore a long strapless black velvet dress with feather boa and long black satin gloves. This was my favorite prom look. I’m lucky enough to have wavy hair , so I could get this look with hot curlers and hairspray only.

I've got 3, I never knew How to use it. Now I know.

I pincurled my hair overnight, every night, when I was in junior high. I used my finger to wrap around, not a device. In high school rollers were the thing. One avante guard girl actually had a blow dried blunt cut.

First vintage stylist I've seen that is good wet set really is the way to go no setting lotion and the hair just falls out amazing job

I just noticed those pin-curl clips have a large gap for the curl to rest in! So cool! If you use regular clips, you're only supposed to pin the end of the hair on the inside of the curl, if you pin across the whole curl then you get a funny crimp that sets into the hair. Around 9:15 you can see on the top right where the pins left their mark. That curl was pinned with the pin upside down at 8:38 so the notch in the pin wasn't able to do it's job. The finished style was done beautifully though, you can't tell. Great job!

this is still a gorgeous way to style hair. I do a pin curl set on all my curly hair clients who wear their hair curly. I don’t brush them out and it creates beautiful defined curls. It’s also a nice break when I have a busy day and can take a break from blow drying. I have never seen a pin curler like that though! I always do it with my fingers.

Best and most clear wet set instructions I have come across! I love how this tutorial really illustrates the written instructions on the vintage hairstyling blog. Seriously, great job!

This is a wonderful tutorial which I have watched several times now. I don’t always do pin curls, but when I do do them I try very hard to do them exactly like this video, the thing I struggle the most with is the skip wave at the back of my head (it’s just so difficult to be neat back there) and the second thing I struggle with is getting that beautiful wave coming together when I do the brush out. However, I shall keep at it.💪🏻

Amazing! What an excellent tutorial! Thank you!,!

We learned these techniques in cosmetology school back in the 90s and it was fun. I did finger waves on my nieces for my wedding as they were my little flower girls. It was all everyone talked about. So romantic and feminine. I chucked my flat iron years ago and go with the flow of my hair now.
