Oh I haven't been here in ages
I've been a bad neglectful Lounger, but here was my last pin curl set:
My hair was super long for ages and I got it cut recently.
Although I haven't 'finished it' (i.e. I will eventually get it cut into a middy), I was impatient to get back into...
Gol-leee!!
Miss Buchanan.. you look amazing in the photos
and Lolita, how could he possible resist your lovely locks and cute smile!
Fedora lounge ladies are the best *sigh*
AllaboutEve.. I'm totally gonna try your milk method!
Personally I used baby oil to remove and then do my usually face washing routine.
Rainbow.. which worked the best for you?
I'm sure it works a treat, but a few years ago there was an makeup airbrush scam where this company (the kind that appear on shopping channels) sold airbrushes used to decorate cakes as makeup airbrushes!
Women all over were confused as to why the makeup caked around each individual hair...
To make it obvious, I think I should start putting whole bouquets on the right side of my head.
They can't miss it hahaha.
I usually put flowers on the right side of my hair anyway because my hair parts on the right and is brushed to the left.
thankyou ricki for that link!!
"8. Twisted strand is laid diagonally downward, ends tucked under the first circle "
I just don't tuck in the ends well enough!
I always attempt to tuck the end into the middle of the curl, but I think I'm going to have better luck with this :)
thanks...
My secret weapon for pincurls are Dolly pegs!
My one's pink and called Peggy Sue (yep, I love it so much, I've named it, i mean her!)
You neatly put the end of the bit of hair through the gap and you wind the dolly peg towards you. As you move closer, you tilt the peg so you can wiggle...
sunnygal- i quickly realised that! and for that very reason, I was blushing so much, I'm surprised my head didnt just explode right there.
straightseamgal- I love it when compliments come from the older generation. Even when it's just an elderly lady smiling and choosing to sit on the seat on...
decogirl.. your photo made me smile and those flowers in your hair are amazing!
goldwyngirl... Pia is such a gorgeous lady. I recently did an interview with her, just for a uni essay, but it was still special!
all the ladies are so amazing. oh the style, so authentic, so flawless...
You know, I never actually knew that seamed stockings had such connotations, but I found out a about 2 years ago when I wore seamed stockings to work when I worked at a real estate agency.
I didn't get why the older lady said "oooh stephanie, you're looking sexy with those seams today!" she...
I can't wear coral pink because of my skin tone :(
I always get excited when I see someone with coral pink lippy because you're right, it's nice to have a change from red sometimes!
When I use lipstick it's Clarins Rouge Intense in no. 49 Deep Red.
But for everyday wear, I use Maybelline's Superstay lipcolour.
I have 3 shades, Cherry, Wine and Flame.
It puts up with daily wear is just the right price for a poor uni student such as myself!
I feel so young on this thread!
Suits and hats and crisp shirts and nice cuff links and nice ties...
They're nice.. but maybe later!
If a guy has nicely quiffed hair and hepcat style, he will definitely turn my head.
If he has roguish charm, makes me laugh and takes me out to dance, my...
Round these parts, I'm still a novelty.
I get older women come up to me and tell me that I'm "just the cutest little thing that they ever did see".
People at uni usually say something like "I can't believe you can actually style your hair like that every day! Sometimes I can't be bothered to...
Hello everyone!
I'm stephanie and this is my first post!
I reside in the lovely city of Sydney and I go to uni where I study media and contemporary cultural studies. This is actually my first vintage forum/community outside of Livejournal. haha.
I'm only 19 but my love affair with vintage...
