Thank you so much for the kind words, everyone!
crwritt, no worries. It was meant in a playful manner.
Grant Fan, those look fabulous (the hairstyles on this page and the page before). I especially love that first updo. I can't believe you have such long hair - you make it look so easy to deal with! =P
Antje, your hairstyles are beautiful and I love how you take the time to take pictures at different angles so we can see how it's done!
SheBear, I have to agree with everyone else - before I read your comments, I thought perhaps he was just a brother. Beautiful haircut and beautiful picture!

Thanks octavia, I also love to see style myself from all angles, so that is why I do it myself I think

Gorgeous. The exact look I try to replicate for 30s style. That hat is amazing! I want one too!

So I've done three sets so far, I'd like to get more of a soft wave next time. I think the third time came the closest. Here they are in order:

GrantFan, I like your Rosie look a lot and I think you should try the 60's bump more often - it's very suiting on you!

NancyLouise- I love the middle hairstyle. It's so 1939.

Unfortunately, its vintage.

DeadPanDiva - Thank you! I was pretty pleased with the result but I had nowhere to go to show it off afterward! I was wondering afterwards if I should've had a little more volume to it?
GrantFan, it's definitely a big compliment that you wanted a setting pattern. Now this started out somewhat seriously and went downhill pretty fast (the illustration anyway) with Windows Paint and one half-asleep hand...
Yes, now you can look delightful too with these easy steps! (Haha, just kidding...)
All of these were kind of a go with the flow thing. I loosely used the same setting pattern for all the styles there. I part to the far side and then I make sure my pin curls are lying down so they are framing my face. I use a sharpie because they taper at the end and make it easier for the curls to come off. It also gives me really tight curls.
The third style was a lot of finger brushing to place the curls before I laid in with the bristle brush. When I finger brush, I have some frizz serum on my fingers too.
For the top I finger brushed the curls up and then back and to the side simultaneously (does that make any sense? What did I get myself into?) I took the remaining curl from the bang area of my hair and sort of coaxed it into blending in with the sides. I smoothed it out with the brush and some hairspray.
The sides I mostly maintained the spiral from the curl by wrapping several pieces around the side of my hand and brushing it almost like I was going to create a cylinder-like effect for a page boy style.

Tonight's hair with a beret and hat pin to bunch up the felt a bit.
I set my hair in metal rollers and then brushed it out into waves. Took a while but works well. This is also with the long middy cut I did. Curls sit a lot better.
