My name is Lucy, I'm a Dutchwoman here to offer an alternative approach to beauty.
On this channel I do mostly hair tutorials where I show you how to braid, pin and style your own hair. I recreate hairstyles from movies, tv shows or history and I regularly come up with my own, which I love to share with you!
I really enjoy diving into history to find out how women went about their beauty and dressing rituals in days past. Vintage and history-themed videos are my little passion project.
You'll find a bit of lifestyle content here as well, ranging from cozy chats over a cup of tea (my beloved Tea Time videos) to personal vlogs and home & interior videos.
Enjoy browsing!
Love,

I was a child in the 60s. I remember my mom putting my hair up in curlers every Saturday night and making me sit under the hair dryer (a full-head cap, not a rigid dome), and then working with it Sunday morning before church to style it. It was always a rat's nest in the morning, and I had a tender scalp and hated the back-combing. But I really wanted the iconic flip to work, so I could look "cool" like the movie stars. Apparently I cried and squealed a lot during those hair-styling sessions, so when I was six, my mom took me to the hairdresser's and had her cut it into a (short!) Pixie. It was the most traumatic thing that had happened to me at that young age. I HATED it. I went home and stood on my head hoping it would make it grow out faster. And the back-combing didn't cease because it was short. Nooooo -- a Pixie had a very poufy top! To this day I can't stand to have very much volume on top of my head. (But I would totally do this hairstyle if I didn't think it would look weird on a mid-50s woman in 2019 ...)

[@NikkiLove9022]

Omg, my scene queen days! lol!

[@naomilovenpeace]

I'm a hairstylist and I just did a beehive with a french twist for a woman who was going to a 60's pageant queen themed party. Lots of fun but soooo much teasing lol

[@pammyt8289]

Slight side pony with hair falling over the shoulder. Another authentic option is rats used to create the volume for women with fine hair. Super cute, reminds me of family photo albums!

[@sirenfromthedeep8619]

Wow! It's so beautiful, i adore '60s you kinda look like Lana Del Rey👌 And also, i love your makeup!! It would be awesome if you do a tutorial on that look🙂

[@fictionalhuman]

How fun! I think the hairstyle looks especially good pinned back/up on you. This 60s bump reminds me of a hairstyle the was popular at least in the southern U.S. about 10-15ish years ago. I had friends in high school/early college that would wear “bump its” in their majorly teased hair. They were especially popular to be worn with ponytails. The bump its were these foam pads attached to a hair comb you would use to do less teasing but still get higher volume at the roots.

[@shelthesea]

you just gave me ptsd i'm sick

[@fictionalhuman]

@@shelthesea Weren't the commercials just awful?

[@fictionalhuman]

Celeste Stonebraker I had very curly waist-length hair back then, so I never could do that style, but so many of my friends did. I’m also glad I missed out on that trend 😝

[@edilmav.m2498]

Oh, İ love the 50's and 60's. ❤

[@VeronicaMxoxo]

Your face really suits the 60s look and vibe-you look so vintagey pretty!

[@krystallights1325]

Omg I love the 60s!!! This hairstyle is perfect!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@jennamorgan5101]

Yaaass I regularly rock this hairstyle 🙌😁 gorgeous!

[@32starsandsugar]

you have the coolest video ideas and your looks are always gorgeous!!! So cuteeee

[@allyssaedwards1261]

Gorgeous recreation!!!!!

[@makeupboss9812]

This is so freaking cute !!!! I never realized how much teasing and hairspray was required with it . Oh my goodness..!!! My mother would do the beehive, she grew up in the 60’s .

[@simonmacomber7466]

While this is an iconic 60s hair style, this is *NOT* a beehive.

[@windchimeisland]

Simon Macomber Do you know the actual name of this hair style? Maybe bouffant?

[@anustardust]

@@windchimeisland yes it’s a bouffant

[@allisonhagan4811]

You look good in any hairstyle! So fun!

[@amandabyrd2989]

You were meant to do these retro styles for sure. So adorable!

[@bathtubprincess8067]

YEEEESSSS I’ve been waiting for this!! this is so good !!

[@karenstrong6734]

My grandma wore this hairstyle at the era, this hairstyle is accurate to be honest. Anyways thanks for the tutorial Lucy.

[@katehouston7913]

I watched a lot of tutorials on this. Yours is by far the best and easiest to follow.

[@Gandellion]

I love it! And the music in this video is so pretty

[@heutenachtistmeintag3328]

Yes! The Beehive! It looks so good on you!

[@MsSarah1290]

U can use this style in your beauty beacons series to recreate looks from the movie HAIRSPRAY

[@vivianc.c.3379]

So cute!!! Love it 😻💕

[@anthonyrobertson7062]

Lots of women just used a hair piece to get height. My mom had a couple and had a lady where she would drop it off and pick it up another day to have it washed and styled.

[@GrayLandscapes]

Love it! I think 60s looks really suit you! I used to do this all the time, but I stopped when I got fed up with having to brush the teased parts out. Took forever!

[@DS-er9co]

You make it look so easy 😱 You’re sooo talented & beautiful ❤️

[@AngelaGWillis]

This look looks great on you!

[@lambchop206]

Thank you! My mother in law wore her hair like that back then. I wish I could tease hair but I ffind it difficult. You make it look so easy

[@NintendoFan8877]

Omg it looks so good

[@Wakeupgrandowl]

This is so cool to see :) So much fun

[@nadeshkaholmes9511]

Gosh it looks so cute!! I love the 60's. You rock that style btw haha

[@4444Rosemary]

I try to achieve that with my hair when I go out :-) Nice to see someone else doing it. I wanted to tell you that this makeup you did for this video is very flattering on you. It suits you, you might make it your regular makeup!

[@nadinechandler8898]

That looked great...reminded me of Marlo Thomas in That Girl ✌

[@ArtificialPerson]

Definitely time consuming, but so rewarding! I actually discover your channel with your Brigitte Bardot tutorials lol ❤❤❤❤

[@thecandidcounterbalance1492]

They also used to sleep on jumbo rollers (with the hair still slightly damp), and when the brushed it out the next day, it would give massive volume, and help create this style more easily.

[@conejitacarreno4876]

Hermoso peinado!!!!. Mañana me peinare así. Gracias y saludos desde la Cd de México.

[@nonra208]

So cute 😍😍😍

[@jeanie400]

Psh costume party... this is my everyday hair lol No joke

[@daliadelrey511]

X2

[@lolacocooo]

same

[@jennyjustme]

Lots and Lots of Aqua Net Hair Spray was needed 🤣😷

[@gunnandersen7412]

Cute hairstyle. A typical 60s.

[@praveenprabhudesai2834]

Lovely dear

[@timsnowdon29]

I like the BIG beehives but your take is really cute!

[@siljebjaland4580]

This is really cool and looks authentic. Could you do an 80's perm-like hair tutorial in the future?

[@ostentatiousostrich]

3:37 80s glam metal hair achieved!

[@vintagegirl2443]

Love your chanel ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@thecandidcounterbalance1492]

Teasing was done with a comb, but the top layer would be smoothed out with the edge of a nylon bristle brush. This kind of brush is essential for smoothing out the layers on top, so you can't see the ratty chunks underneath.

[@sarahportelli93]

Loooove the outcome of this tutorial 💜 also; have a beauty beacons suggestion: Caresse Crosby inventor of the modern day bra

[@lolojopp]

Super cute

[@vidajacobson]

Thanks, luv. I've been wondering how to get this look

[@2near_death]

More of these tutorials pleaseee

[@XZeldaTheZealotX]

You make this look easy, I can’t tease my hair to save my life 😭

[@rafzskiascout]

Well, I'm not going to any parties or anything, I'm just going to try to use it daily

[@DelilaFarrell]

Wow! Cool hairstyle! Can’t say I would wear it in public, though!😂 Love from my channel💕

[@louiselill1528]

I love this style . Have you ever done your mum's hair ?

[@funeralgiggle3771]

louise lill interesting question! I wonder that too

[@brandyloutherback9288]

You could do a Beauty Beacon of Fiction on Megan Draper, a character who all but screamed I am the 1960's!

[@deenayounan8277]

Where did you get your headband? It looks perfect with the style!

[@sophiesobura5449]

This hairstyle remembers me of teasing my own hair in nearly the same way in order to be a scene girl 😂

[@zampieritto]

Cool

[@user-cn7xb7yd4y]

wow I like.

[@francyfey4646]

It would be soooo cool if you‘d collab with Melanie Murphy again and do a Marvellous Mrs. Maisel make over on her 😍 I would sooo love it. But as she lives in Ireland, it‘s not possible, I guess 😭

[@LeadAllSoulsToHeaven]

Love this. I want the headband though. It's not just like a ribbon, its actually elastic. Where do I find this?

[@bella7904]

is there some sort of hairpiece i can use to avoid backcombing so much?

[@rz9305]

Brovo 👏👏

[@KEKEK.]

❤️

[@Jocelyn_Jade]

The backcombing can be avoided with wigs. Stack wigs to get the same volume and with less damage to your hair.

[@philtirah]

I don't even have to watch to tell you.....Not even close to being high enough. lol seriously though. My grandmother and her friends often wore beehives. To this day, I've no idea how long her hair was or wasn't. High hair. Never came down. Aqua net

[@jeffreycruz8161]

Please do a beehive next

[@nurache]

I wish you’d kept the fringe and tie the ribbon on top of the fringe. A very 60s bouffant 😊 Edit: oh you did. Never mind and carry on 😂

[@tammydee9700]

My mom had that hair in the 70's as well lol

[@bambisofi7393]

reminds me of lana del rey

[@TheSiobhan12]

I have naturally curly hair, so not sure this would have worked, but fun to see on straight haired girls. x

[@vanessagroker98]

My grandma I never met had this hairstyle 😁 Unfortunately she died young but from old photos I know she was a very pretty lady 😁

[@MJ-2005]

Please could you try out a Jane eyer hair style (from the 2011 film) 😘

[@FannysLoA]

I don't remember... Did you ever do Peggy Bundy from "Married With Children"? I'd love to find a way to get her hair

[@LJ-pv7zl]

My grandmother wore her hair like this in her 20s.

[@LirutheFoxgirl]

This is a really cute hair style but I definitely think that your hair being tied back would of work a fair bit better for you.

[@BrockGranado222]

Her hair is very long but in order to get the style you would just tease it higher and higher and higher so actually she would have a very high tease

Love this... however, would hate washing it out! :-)

[@genericchannel126]

Reminds me of hairspray

[@genericchannel126]

Oh mama welcome to the 60s woahhhh ohh

[@hlwiedenhoeft]

Reminds me of Baltimore hairstyle.

[@thegreenmanofnorwich]

I'm just thinking of trying to wash out all that backcombing and hairspray. My hair is exceptionally fine so it just wouldn't survive well

[@shivanisoni2323]

Hairstyle name plz

[@nazishhussain1463]

Plz healtyh tips advise

You needed some Dippity Do!

How do you do this it’s so hard lol

[@ladychucklefuck]

GIDGET!!

[@leticia6944]

Priscilla Presley comes to mind :) ❤

[@carlalacoste6713]

lana del rey is that you ?

[@HoneymoonASMR]

Oh gosh now I can be Lana and Priscilla THANK YOU

[@bcgrote]

Aqua Net. Ozone hole.

[@thynaluna]

You look like Pamela Tiffin.

[@user-tv5pe5hl5p]

👍👍👍👍))))

[@amydouglas6576]

It isn't a beehive. A true beehive is a very high updo. A very authentic 60s look would be if she just secured her hair in a low ponytail which looks great with all the backcombing.

[@tajinderkaur7770]

You so beautiful 🙂

[@LaDivinaLover]

Fairly sure this is a soft bouffant and not a beehive...
