    Reconstructing Suzy Homemaker

    Idledame, reading your post brings up memories of stories told to me by my parents! My father was born in 1943 and my mother in 1949. My father was born in California, but my mom was born in Texas and they moved out here when she was 7. My husband and I drive by the old Helms bakery building in...

    So tired of setting my hair every night...

    I too tired of setting my hair in pin curls (and now that I am married the hubs would probably HATE to see me with all those bobby pins in my hair, lol) so I discovered I could get the look with a curling iron or a curling wand in about 1/4 of the time. I just prep my hair with a styling spray...

    Eyebrow help

    Grant Fan, do you have an Ulta beauty near you? The Benefit Brow counter is a great option for maintaining a "vintage-y" brow shape as the counters I've visited lean toward a fuller, more natural looking brow as opposed to the overly waxed/tweezed look (unless that's what you are going for!) You...

    do you wash your hair everyday?

    I take a shower daily, but I only wash my hair every 2 days (unless I got really sweaty during a workout) so it's dry shampoo in between. I saw a meme on Instagram that made me giggle because it said "By Friday my hair is 90% dry shampoo". That's closer to the truth in some cases!

    Brushing Out Pincurls (For Long Hair)?

    This used to happen to me, and my hairstylist friend recommended that if one half of your hair dries out before you get to it, keep a spray bottle of water on your vanity (or wherever you happen to be setting your hair) and rewet the section(s) as necessary and only apply the setting lotion once...

    Setting Lotion

    When I used to set my hair with pin curls, I used to use Salon Care Elan Plus Extra Hold Conditioning Setting Lotion that I would buy from Sally Beauty Supply...

    any old-school housewives??

    I am a semi-homemaker for the time being. My husband and I own a couple of businesses and I work two days out of the week on administrative duties for the businesses. At the moment we do not have any children, but when we start adding to our family, I will stay home 100%. I am a homebody, so it...

    How do you keep your house neat?

    I too am not the most eager housekeeper. It's not a matter of not knowing...It's more of a lack of motivation at times. I do find that making a schedule, like our grandmother's did, really helps me to stay on track. My husband and I own a couple of businesses and I do administrative work for...

    Everyone's rings are so gorgeous! I absolutely loved looking at them <3 While my husband and I had my engagement ring custom made, it was based on several vintage ring designs. The center stone is a 3 carat cushion cut blue sapphire set in white gold with about 132 diamonds. My bands I was...

    The Middy Thread

    Hi Mame! My friend Maryah Lilly does a wonderful job not only with vintage type cuts but styling as well. http://sweetndandyhair.com/blog/about/ She does work in a salon but she also freelance's and charges a fair price. I have worked with her many times and can vouch for her work. Just...

    Bridesmaid Hair

    If she doesnt allow the headband, I don't think she would oppose to a large clip in your hair, like the bottom one just without the white band. That would look lovely!
