EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this stunning 1940s hairstyle, perfect for those with very long hair. During the 1940s, elaborate hair was in vogue as women sought to make a statement despite the rationing during World War II. This elegant hairstyle, featuring a quiff at the front, drawn-out curls, and twisted waves, is a beautiful example of the era's glamour. The hairstyle begins with the hair combed smooth and parted down the side. The front section is then swept upwards to create a quiff, secured in place with hairpins. The longer lengths are then curled using large rollers or hot curlers, creating luscious, bouncy curls. The curls are then pinned up, creating a series of twisted updos at the back of the head. The final touch is a delicate wave framing the face, adding a touch of sophistication to the look. This hairstyle is a timeless classic, exuding elegance and glamour. It's a great option for special occasions or for those who want to add a touch of vintage charm to their everyday look. With its intricate twists and curls, this hairstyle is sure to turn heads and transport you back to the golden age of Hollywood.
