'Easy-Peasy' Pin Up Hairstyle-Vargas Inspired

[Diamonddusted68]

love your look. Do you make your own clothes?

[LisaFreemontStreet]

@Diamonddusted68 no...not at all. :)

[jenjenjuicyfruit]

this is my "everyday" look lately. it's easy to do since I have school at 8am and don't have alot of time to spend on my hair

[catmamaril]

I have sponge rollers but I really want to get a set of hot rollers! I'm not sure which kind to get...I have thick but Fine short hair!...any suggestions?

[LisaFreemontStreet]

@catmamaril In my experience, most of them are the same. The just need to get *hot* (enough to burn your ears). And I don't like te ones flocked in velvet...

[SymphonyRose]

Oh thank you ! I was trying to find hairstyle ideas for girls who ALREADY had bangs like that, so this was great! Keep it up!

[RubyMcB]

AWESOME - So easy and it looks fantastic

[redsteffy]

i do my hair like this most days but with a curling iron, of course it is never as good as rollers :) im loving the music and style

[imdorothyhouse]

amaizing!

[pajamamomma]

YAY! I love you, so cute. My daughter and I enjoyed watching this. Now I'm off to fix her hair!

[bregurl227]

This is so beautiful ! Um what was the name of the first mike ness song you played ?Never heard it befor.

[LisaFreemontStreet]

@bregurl227 I believe there is an itunes link?  If not, I'm pretty sure there is an annotation...I am not certainw/out watching the vid again. :)

[pomfan07]

[LaurenRockxx]

love this look. beautiful thank you xxx

[Auberginemule]

Awesome video ! I have chin length hair and would love to do something vintage inspired, do you have any suggestions ??

[LisaFreemontStreet]

Check out the art of the famous pin up artists (classic) on the Pin Up Files website. The styles on the girls are all different lengths and usually pretty simple to achieve. Find one that features your length and I'll try and tell you how to achieve it. :)

[ghostaliaz]

I am a guy, but I love this video & I love this hair style on you because it is just timeless & I always thought that the females of yesterday was so sexy & with this hair style you remind me of that classy timeless hair style & you look good wearing it. Go Girlie!

[kindabizarre]

absolutely gorgeous <3

[aeleaonor]

hi! I am a spanish teenager and you help me with mi pin up look. I love u thank u sorry for me horrible english

[LisaFreemontStreet]

I am very happy. Thank you. :)

[hairyonion]

I have a question-when you use heated rollers do you only use heat spray or setting lotion as well? I find when i use only heat spray the curls don't stay put, and when I use setting lotion as well they never dry in time! I have similar hair texture to your good self

xxx

[LisaFreemontStreet]

I use the heat tamer spray only. Then hairspray over the whole set. Then when the rollers are COMPLETELY cool, I release them, brush it out, style, and spray again. It usually lasts a long time but it really depends on the weather, w/ me.

[TribalFaerie]

You are adorable! Love this look!

[vintageastroid]

I love the hairstyles! But I wish you could put the camera up closer than looking up at you. It just makes it easier to get an idea of what you are doing. Maybe it's just me.

[LisaFreemontStreet]

You have to understand that I'm not a professional videographer. I have an integrated laptop webcam and a standard height vanity. I tried to do these videos seated so I was level w/ the camera but I got more complaints about the lighting than ever...so I have to work w/ what I have. Maybe someday I'll release a dvd and have professional quality lighting, but until then-this'll have to do.

[yourfavoritecousin]

Actually, I love the angle you have the camera at - I can always see exactly what you're doing. Your videos are soooo awesome.

I did this style using your method but without bangs last week and I loved it so much that I got bangs today. I'm excited to try it tomorrow with bangs.

[seventeenpercent]

im so glad you did this look! i have this vargus girl poster and i've wanted to do this look because the red bathing suit reminds me of the memphis belle(where im from) and the magnolia remind be of mississippi(where i go to school).

[NiGHTMAREMMA]

Love the coupe, and I also liked the first song. =] And the flowers of course. =]

[LisaFreemontStreet]

coupe?

[NiGHTMAREMMA]

Oh, sorry. =P I'm from Holland, and my English isn't very well sometimes. =P I thought I choose the right word. Excuse me. =P

[greeneyegirl007]

You have a very old time look about you. Like you just stepped out of that era. Awesome!!

[missclawdy]

As always, beautiful!!!!

[mineraljunkie]

you are so beautiful! every hairstyle works on you!

[AuroraDarling24]

very cute....was just wondering i am flirting with the idea to get bang. right now they are the length of my hair....did u cut those straight across or do u have a bit of an angle.....and sorry one more thing.....how did u describe them to ur hairdresser..is there a specific name?...ty in advance!

[LisaFreemontStreet]

Thanks! I actually don't trust most stylists to do a 'bettie bang'. For one thing, they don't understand them (because they rarely do them around here) and they also don't understand MY hair. I have a cowlick on one side that means I have to really tame my bangs into submission. So I cut them myself. It is scary to think about at first. But I did a video on it that may help. Also, Aya of Strawberrykoivintage did one that is really helpful. And she started w/ no bangs. :)

[AuroraDarling24]

yes, i see....i would be to freaked out that im gonna mess up if i cut my own bangs lol and i know what u mean about the stylist not knowing what betty bangs r...not to many pay attention to their looks where i migrated to..haha thanks a lot for the quick response.

[VivienMcall]

Yeah, thanks to you I learned how to cut my own bangs. The video was really helpful.

[LisaFreemontStreet]

Oh, and the bangs are not straight across though they look like it at first glance. They're in a curved shape...longest at the center of the forehead and shorter on the sides.

[KandiYam07]

Very nice!

[Txjane]

Yes the lighting is much better and loved the hair style. Great Job

[Chasems97]

YOur room has alot more and better light!! I like it more there than the bathroom.

[bettypager7]

can anyone reccomend a good set of heated rollers. and which brand to go with???? ta x

[Mitty1369]

For regular hot rollers, I would recommend the Babyliss Pro Ionic 30 roller set. I recently purchased Caruso steam rollers and have had good luck with them and I have thick, coarse hair.

[LisaFreemontStreet]

Any brand is fine, even the cheap ones, as long as they get HOT. These that I use are Clairol ones that were about 25.00 but they get really hot and that is the secret.

[phoenix9ty]

i love this look. hey what was the name of the book of vintage hairstyles you got from amazon? I can't find that video...

[LisaFreemontStreet]

Creative Hairstyling by Ivan Anderson

[phoenix9ty]

thank you so much.

[Fancylooks]

Well done, Ashley. Yes, the lighting was better in your room, I could see your hair much lighter and more detail, but the angle of the camera and the framing of the image are better in your usual room. Put both together and you are done!

I love your photo in the country, is so retro!

[drumsanddrumming]

You look like my wife ;)

[QueenMum01]

lovely, lovely, lovely

[myassbelongstoslug]

oh, and 5 stars for magnolias!

[myassbelongstoslug]

your hair looked more orange in the first part of the video. i thought you dyed your hair again, but you were just in a different room! lol

i freakin love all of your hair tutorials. i have learned SO much. now i'm not so hair-challenged anymore :P

[LisaFreemontStreet]

It's faded alot. I'm overdue for a semi permanant job.

[shazam15]

OH WOW! 0:46 was YOU?! I saw that picture on the facebook group page " Vintage Glamour" like 2 years ago and thought ' wow. she's so incredibly gorgeous.... thats so surreal.'

:D

[LisaFreemontStreet]

ha. I didnt put it on facebook so someone else did, I guess. That's comforting. :)

[beanerreytor]

Wow!! The lighting is sooo much better in the first room.. You are very talented and I love, love, love your style.

[xdrewbz]

awesome video. i really like the lighting setup alot better in this video.

[sublime796]

cute! and excellent song choice

[frankkylou]

You are one of the coolest moms in the world!

[bellabella327]

lighting was better in room (1st half)

[misscasseycakes]

very cute!!! and your right! i totally fall back on this style when im in a rush. i just wish all my hair fit in hot rollers! i have so much, and its so long.

but anyhoo, i have to agree. your room was better. and it seems like your less cramped too! haha! i think maybe it because the paint is a lighter green.

i hope this helps!

xoxo

[LizDickey08]

very cute!

[choochoobearva]

Cute! And I love Fleur's tute too!

[leoisillon06]

love it!

[staceybrennan]

wayyy better lighting hun :) and I love this look I cant wait till my hair is longer so I can do this.....just wondering do you have any friends with short bob cuts that you could do a vintage tut on them for us short haired gals :)

[milliology]

you're beautiful ashley

[MistiqueMakeup]

fab darling! and i'm loving your hair colour too :)

[trinity1022]

Lighting better in your room for sure!

[elegantmacabre]

Awesome!!! I jst got Laurene book...o

I can't wait to start using it on Clients....

[MsFaintlyMacabre]

The lighting in your room was great! And the hair, of course, is lovely.

[GreyWolfEyes1222]

great lighting girl!

[HollywoodNoirMakeup]

This look really suits you! I love it. The music rocks too ;)

[Glamouracecollies]

The lighting is much better now.

I love this hairstyle, and very cool music!

[VyletteD]

The lighting in your room is much better, I agree :)

This is very similiar to my daily 'do. When I set it on damp hair with spongies, I can usually even wear it with tight curls on day 1 and just a bit looser waves (like with the hot rollers) on day 2.. just a bit of brushing and spray required!

[mizbelle]

wow, really cute! I love this :D

[iamawsomeable]

yes your room is ten times better

[JennieM4]

Love this look!! And the lighting in your room is a lot better! :)

[iHooDoo]

I love the new lighting. this look is muy cute!

[VivienMcall]

Adorable as always. :) The lighting in your room is ten times better.

[evy0579]

MUCH better lighting! Style is awesome!

[majinchichi]

Man, this is so cute, and so easy! I think I may have found a new easy go to daily vintage do!

FTR, lighting in your room is much better. And love your choice of music on this one! I love Mike Ness :-)

[itwashappiness]

Gorgeous look on you. I've always loved this print and I'm counting every minute until my hair is long enough to pull off this look. Thanks for making & sharing with us.

Stay in your room, the lighting is fantastic! You can clearly see the curls compared to the dark athmosphere of your bathroom, haha.

[shannonleta]

Gorgeous! And you looks great with straight hair! Love your vids :D

[GinPrincess3931]

Again, this is one of my favourite daytime hairdos - and I wear the flowers in work (one side only for me though, otherwise my face looks HUGE ;) ). I don't ever want to work in an office that doesn't appreciate a fine flower clip :D

[MandyRascal]

Cuteeee!!!

[mspinupgirly]

I so glad to see you do more styles with bangs as I am a bettie banger as well and its great to see the styles with bettie bangs, perfection as always!!!

[RockabillyVegan]

awesome! I think the lighting in your room is much better (less shadows)

[zuzupetals4444]

You are sheer perfection!!!! <3

[ccstarbourne]

WOW! RED?! Looks GOOD!

[LisaFreemontStreet]

My hair has been red for a long time? Hmmm...or perhaps you're talking about the lipstick? Anyway...thanks. :)

[bellederouge]

The lighting is great! So much easier to see how you roll and style the curls! Cute hair style, thanks so much! : )

[19myself91]

very chic! Will you also do a tutorial on the other style (the Betty Grable type hair) you showed us?

[LisaFreemontStreet]

Yes I will. Until then, my Joyce Ballantyne pin up hairstyle is very similar, You would just clip the back in a barette instead of doing braids. ;)

[JenniferGentle88]

This is excellent, I can't wait to try this out!
