rue,

Cover girl perfect ♥

Thank you so much!! It was a bit wind blown, but I think it still looked okay Mostly I wanted to share the fact that C-dot's cut works.

 

[C-dot]

This is the set that has been working best for me lately. I had my hair recently cut into a long middy and it's been behaving much better. The funny thing about this picture is that I have bright red lipstick on, but photographed it looks ****.[huh]

That set is perfection itself! Like others have mentioned, I am so jealous of your smooth curls. Mine come out like that right after I've brushed them into submission, but they soon get *really* curly again.

PS, the lipstick thing happens to me too in photos lol

I cut my hair according to the directions C-dot gave and I think it turned out pretty good even though I was scared to do it. Thank you C!!

Wow, I'm so happy you tried it Rue! It came out fantastically, you look great I'm going to link to your pictures in The Middy thread so others can see!

Another lovely example of C-dot's tutorial. You look beautiful Rue. If only I could pluck up the courage!

Thank you! You should really try it. I was nervous to cut the back, but it came out just fine. I took a little too much off the top, but since I curl it everyday anyway, you can't even tell

Rue, you look gorgeous!

 

[rue]

Thank you Juliet

 

[Grant Fan]

Here is what I got today I really like how it turned out

 

[rue]

It looks darling! Your new haircut really suits you Grant Fan

 

[TheRedSquare]

Rue and GrantFan- I am swooning! You both look beautiful. What type of set did you two use for those do's? They are truly perfection.

For the ladies who asked to see my long middy un-styled... I'm still working on getting my picture uploaded. I'm having issue's with my little uploader usb thing(?) and need to see if my honey can get it working.

On another note- LisaFreemontSt just posted a great video on YouTube for several different faux bangs. There is a faux bettie bang that I can't wait to try!

 

[Grant Fan]

RedSquare, Thanks you are very kind. I will take pictures of the set next time I use it, it is much easier than trying to explain it. Unless you have the Vintage Hairstyling book, in that case I used the setting pattern used for the 1930's fake bob

 

[AdrianLvsRocky]

Wow Grant Fan! That's beautiful! Is that just the set or is the back pinned up? Really lovely.

 

[rue]

Thank you TRS! I just followed the directions that C-dot found for Lauren Bacall at the bottom of this page: http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?43375-The-Middy-Thread/page43

I didn't try and smooth it out though, because it was super windy that day, but that's how I curled it with hot sticks

 

[Grant Fan]

Wow Grant Fan! That's beautiful! Is that just the set or is the back pinned up? Really lovely.

No pinning up my hair is short now and naturally curly so pinning up wasn't a factor for me

Here is what I got today I really like how it turned out

This is adorable. Can I ask what kind of roller set you did with this? I cannot for the life of me get that kind of wave in the front and I don't know if it's a cowl lick or just poor rolling technique.

 

[ginfizz]

wow Grantfan that looks wonderful!

 

[Grant Fan]

Clabbergirl I use a conair, 20 roller set. I did comb a finger wave with a pomade coating on my hands then held it in place with duck bill clips and strayed it. Once it was dry I lightly combed it. I hope that helps. Next time I set it I will take a picture of my setting pattern and my roller sets.
Ginfizz thanks I am really pleased with it.
