40s Brush Out On Long Hair | Tutorial

I'm going to show you how to do an authentic-looking 40s brush out. The iconic hairstyle you see in all the photos from back in the day! My hair is a bit longer than the typical 40s cut though, so I'll have to work around that. I'm also going to cheat a bit and use a curling iron to speed up the pin curling process. Enjoy!

This is unbelievably beautiful, why is this not in style!?! I'm going to try it! Too bad none of my clothes are classy enough to pair with it.

[@oooh19]

It's not in style because it takes a long time to do plus fashions change

[@lolapoente6216]

Same haha i have jogging pants and sneakers 😀

[@lunalluna9401]

@Will Ganness it takes a special kind of talent being able to connect everything to race.

[@lizpena8813]

The beauty of today is that we can choose our own style 😁 do it no matter how long it takes and see if it's you! I'm 31 and I'm always changing my hair 💇

[@yc2877]

Will Ganness a hairstyle has nothing to do with being a racist lmao

[@eviec2749]

i have to say, you have a face that can pull off any era. That so cool!

[@satanswife2546]

I agree! No matter how many times I watch this video, this thought always pops up

[@TwentyThree-23]

Rita Hayworth was one of the few hollywood stars who had long curls so your hair is acurate despite the length. Very nice!

[@kirstenbakker839]

And Veronica Lake ❤️

[@DebbieNovotny]

Hi Lucy! Just a quick tip: to reduce frizziness expecially on the tips, try and brush them against the palm of your hand and mold the curl that way. It really works! By the way I love your tutorials, expecially the historical ones, I'm a big history freak! Keep up the good work!

[@ellak1442]

Debbie Novotny Thank you so much! I love this hairstyle but I am in a constant battle with frizz.

[@emilymicah1150]

You look like Agent Carter from Captain America!! I definitely want to this look.

[@Lamaspucke]

emily the procrastination queen It's true, she looks like Peggy

[@ryanfire4176]

emily the procrastination queen I think her hair does, but her face looks more like Natalie.

[@scarlett2208]

She does!!

[@user-lu4xp7iv8c]

Emily Shewan omg yes

[@emmatpz7319]

Omg yes!!

[@AlannaLessThan3]

Yessss more 1940's hair please!!!!!

[@jessiharm528]

With pin curls the best first thing to remember is you setting pattern will absolutely have an effect on the direction the curls go, and the look after brush out. Alternating rows was very common for 30s and 40s to get those perfectly lovely s curves, or c curls. Think Veronica lake who had really long hair. Another huge thing is patience with the brush out. Break the curls up with fingers first, and then use a brush. It will get poofy, frizzy and over all terrifying, but the more you brush the smoother it gets, and make sure you are shaping and brushing at the same time. I like to use my hand to help shape and smooth. I hold a section in hand and run the brush over and around my palm. I think the 1940s are the best years for pin culs. Although the 30s bob can be fun.

[@momoyome]

oh my gosh going from brushing them out and they look all frizzy to the end is magic O_O

[@Loepsie]

+momoyome I KNOW RIGHT?!

[@mygutsaysmaybe1509]

momoyome I had my aunt do crazy curls on me a while back , and she accidentally brushed them into a frizzy mess. I can't believe I was only a few more brush strokes away from this! I'm kicking myself

[@autumnakins7640]

I love the old music you always have in the background

[@katiealger86]

Thank you for the tutorial! I graduate high school in may and I’m having a late 1940s early 1950s themed party and I’m so exited to start dressing in the vintage style!

[@gracerendell5339]

Finally! A tutorial that says it's for long hair...and actually IS long hair! Definitely want to try this

[@tansymcnally3671]

I really can't stand make-up and hair tutorials on KZbin but I love your tutorials. Your approach is so fun and relatable, plus you describe things incredibly well. Thank you!

[@thedarkjotun]

I remember in my pinup days when I used to do a Marilyn look pretty much every day, occasionally I would do a 40s brushed-out curls style, my hair was dark and a lot shorter back then so it kind of looked like Ava Gardner ☺️

[@Alinda1308]

This look is so feminine and sophisticated. I love the make up also

[@parodybarbiegirl]

With that tiny comb you put in your hair. If you want to create that true 40ties effect you need to do the comb and tuck. So you take that little comb and turn it around so the inside of the comb is facing up. Then you cpb the bit of hair you want to pull back with that tiny comb (again still with the inside facing up) Then when you get to the spot you want your hair to be pinned back, you lift up the comb a bit and twist it so the right side is facing up. And then you slide the comb in your hair. This gives that nice tucked effect to the hair and it's very very secure. My grandmother taught me this.

[@Loepsie]

Thank you! I'll try that

[@mackenzielukity3861]

Natascha Clerinx Please, I am trying to understand what you're saying to do but I can't comprehend your instructions. Is there any other way you can explain it? I really want to do this hairstyle

[@evelynpinkley5511]

Sarcastic Wallflower it's kinda like how you do a Bobby pin. Start with the wavy edge on top, slide through hair, and flip the Bobby pin so the wavy edge is now on the bottom. It's a securing method. Did that help at all? It's weird to explain 😕

[@autumnakins7640]

That's the only way a comb will stay in my hair.

[@tamaraeads3650]

I thought this was the only way a comb would stay in! Guess the tuck isn’t necessary, but I love the look it gives the hair.

[@carefulnowted4495]

Ooh, I love this, you look just like Peggy Carter! This is perfect for a fancy dress party or something - it's such a classy look. Thanks for the modification for us longer-haired girls as well!

[@emdarcy7295]

I have pictures of my great grandmother with her hair styled like this! Thanks for the "cheat" tutorial using a curling iron!

[@sophia.scott_]

EmDarcy how did it come out with the curling iron?

[@Rottenfrills]

Thank you for making this. I pincurl my hair a lot, but since I have bangs and long hair, I have never been able to make it look "authentic". I will give this a try soon.

[@hannyrose2349]

what a genius idea having the mirror behind you! love this look!

[@dreadlockdoris7093]

I holded my breath as you were applying the hairspray XD

[@dogscott7881]

Your hair is so gorgeous and looks so healthy and soft

[@rachelh1595]

Perfect. My daughter has mid-back length hair and is playing the part of an American tourist in the 1940's. I'm going to work on perfecting this for the production in December. Thanks for the tutorial

[@larrygill3518]

BEAUTIFUL!! YOU'VE MADE IT LOOK EASY...I MUST PRACTICE BEFORE OUR FORTY-FIRST WEDDING ANNIVERSARY CRUISE! (2024) YEAH...WE'RE NEVER TOO OLD TO TRY! GLAMOROUS IS 'IN'

[@luvDemcheesepuffs]

You are just darling and a great teacher! I have always believed in respecting history AND adding to it with what has made life easier :)

[@louise5276]

this was SO helpful! it's hard to find tutorials for longer hair like this! thank you!

[@alexaf.3158]

It's sooo pretty!!! Especially the back where the ends curl in. Great job!

[@EVGMoviemaker]

That´s so pretty! And it´s good to finally know how they got that look instead of guessing ´well probably a lot of curling´ :P

[@maryamwilliams5368]

i just followed it with a curling wand and i am waiting for 15 minutes right now and i can't wait for the brush out!

[@bettablue2660]

Gorgeous! This is your style. You definitely curled it exactly the correct way.

[@jacecleo2]

According to my old coametoligy books, U did curl ur hair in the correct dirrection according to how they would curl in that era...And ur hair turned out lovely.

[@hihi-vq9zt]

Gonna try this for prom!! I love vintage hairstyles

[@DSkye-n7m]

[@astoldbymommy]

[@amandajarboe1131]

I love this look! Especially with my long hair! It's so romantic!!

[@ruzya7]

God this is the video I've been waiting for!!! I love you thanks!!!!

[@amber-lilyrobbins2157]

i've been searching for a tutorial like this! Thank you

[@ShAwNkE93]

Love it! The way you’re able to do these older hairstyles on longer hair is really cool. Nicely done! Oh, and also cool you’re Dutch. I was able to notice the accent, however, it’s not as thick as the Dutch accent of most Dutchies. Big complement to you! Your English is also really good. Keep on doing what you do :), also cool that one of your videos went viral, that’s how I found your channel. To end, Loepsie, je kanaal is heel gaaf, je hebt leuke informatieve videos en een fijne manier van vertellen. Greetings from another Dutch girl.

[@CT1010101]

Your makeup is so gorgeous here in addition to the incredible hair!

[@ryanfire4176]

Ahhhh, you have amazing skills!

[@gimli4180]

I love your hair, the colour and structure😍

[@Mongryung]

You look so beautiful! That's a lovely hairstyle. :)

[@LemonadeLaura]

So cute! I know it's not a current trend, but I think this hairstyle would look really pretty with a modern casual look. Kinda like throwing on a blazer over your jeans and t-shirt.

[@user-sy6jf8od3m]

I love this hair style

[@provvide75]

Awesome tutorial

[@StyleYourselfBeautiful]

Looks great! :)

[@clara-marieeloy6739]

You're so cute at the end, so proud of yourself haha ! Loved this tutorial thanks so much !

[@maryg2519]

Love all your videos & i will be trying this technique on my hair which is similar to yours 😃 thanks you!

[@1Megan1Grace]

love all your videos!! 40s hair is the best!! also I hope I get to meet you one day this summer I'm visiting the Netherlands!!

[@eda7539]

Your hair looks so healthy and shiny!

[@Lamaspucke]

I wonder whether that'll work on my hip-length hair... Love the look :)

[@anamikaedi]

same.. can't even curl properly..too long😰

[@ruzya7]

I think that the longer the smaller the sections you take to curl, I also have longer hair than her, so I hope that works

[@WMG4life]

Teresa if it works please let us know the results I have just passed hip length very thick hair and will be doing an Anzac concert. would like to look authentic.

[@a.b.2909]

i wonder if there are *any* 1940's hairstyles that are for long hair because I'm so sad that I can't do this

[@amandatran4207]

yup yup guys if you can find something please tell me (bc I might have to cut my tbl hair to do vintage hairstyles :((( )

[@Natashahoneypot]

This looks stunning!!!

[@tracy37043]

I was just looking at 40's pin curl brush outs last night!

[@stephaniecorella3016]

[@uzmam2612]

Your hair is GORGEOUS and I LOVE your makeup. I subscribed. I'm gonna watch your hair care vid but can you make a vid about your simple makeup like the one in this vid? It's so classy

[@GinaBlythe]

When your hair is curled, it is about the same length as Lake, Hayworth, and Bacall's hair. Long hair was not unheard of then. 😉 Will try this. Thanks for the tips!

[@suzannakamphuis7953]
