Bumper Bangs Tutorial! || Vintage Hair

[@wietskejanse5951]

I always love the little captions you write to portray Frodo's inner monologue, they're so funny! ^^

[@recpise]

love how natural/casual these videos are. cozy house and bg music , playful w/out being overly "on", it's like a friend's explaining this also your outfit's "super cute!" !

**cuts bangs** Rachel: here's how you do bumper bangs Me: cool cool, I'm fine

[@kathar4782]

I cut mine yesterday...

[@findmeinnature]

My dad remembers his mom (my grandmother) making hair rats with her own hair. You look great with bumper bangs! :)

[@valaethartist]

*Queen of vintage uploads yet again* 😍 love seeing more and more of your face on my feed!

[@franny7530]

rather than buying a red one, you might try wrapping your existing ones with a nylon or tights in your preferred color? That is what we used to do in our theatre costume department for them :) though honestly i don't know if it would be almost the same price to buy tights as to just buy a colored hair donut...

[@Sarah_Grant]

Maybe an old sock of the right colour?

[@karolynduke4270]

She could also dye it with a color that matches... I had a few friends do that and it worked for them

[@Lamdennison]

But who among us doesn't have a pair of panty hose with a runner (sometimes practically new hose...if you're me) in a "nude" color that could be reused. I believe Jennifer at A Vintage Vanity makes them using fishnet stockings.

[@whossoul]

You can buy red/brown hair doughnuts at the dollar store, so it's one of those things that it's probably easier to just buy a new one!

[@TheRealMythril]

Frodo says “mama, play with me!” Beautiful styling!

[@Emilee52395]

I'm so glad somebody knows about Meet Me in St Louis! I watched it for the first time as a toddler when I visited my grandmother's house, the song was permanently embedded into my brain. When she passed away in her late 80s it became a bittersweet movie. You look just like Judy Garland!

[@sydney9495]

Emilee M. I love Judy's hair/wig style in that movie 😍

[@aimpinkpanda96]

That Chicago reference. I freakin love that musical.

[@bambilover26]

Frodo racing around at the end made me laugh so hard! He's just so excited that you're home all of the time now. Love a sweet and simple tutorial

[@Dejavu.vintageshop]

*waving the weird thing that she uses for the bangs* « you uncomfortable? » * weird look* I luv😂😂

Still giggling.

Lisa Anderson same😂

[@kaitlynholm9619]

Love that there are a couple jokes that have becoming your ongoing regulars that carry from one video to another! You are hilarious!

[@lizap16]

Love the old way option. I remember my mom and grandma telling me about how in the old days ladies would always save all the hair from their combs and just put it out in the backyard for birds and things to make nests with!

[@rebekahkasper953]

I literally will never wear these bangs but I will watch anything you film. You’re doing so great as a “career” youtuber!

[@ewright8661]

AND ALL THAT JAZZ!

[@grayskies6192]

E Wright: I'm gonna rouge my knees... ha!

[@sharonfabrega7879]

I also like doing the bumper with the snipped donut. Love your shade of red!😍

[@chocunzel3174]

That looks so cute! I wish my hair would hold literally a n y t h i n g i make it into. It just collapses :( We're being spoilt, Rachel! So many uploads! Remember to take care of yourself and to not overwork yourself. We appreciate every video, and thanks for your hard work! It's wonderful being able to retreat to this channel after a bad day, or even a good day. Your videos always cheer me up. Good work Rachel, and happy new year! (Maybe a bit late but the sentiment is there)

[@rhiannonm8132]

Chocunzel agreeeeee!!! Rachel deserves all the good things

[@Lamaspucke]

Very true! I can hardly keep up with watching them all, how can she keep up with making them?? Truly amazing

[@im_an_oyster]

Let me preface this by saying this is gonna sound a bit gross but stay with me. Victorian and Edwardian women used to wash their hair with an egg and water mixture. It cleans the hair but also gives it texture and grit which let them do all those super intricate hairstyles with their 3 yards of hair. Bernadette Banner literally just did a video on this if you want to give it a watch, otherwise Google will surely give more information.

[@isabellabarry1962]

Bumper bangs always remind me of Judy Garland in Meet Me in St Louis (even if it was made of a creepy hair pile 😂) love this tutorial 💗💗

[@veganvintagegeek935]

Actually Judy did not sport bumper bangs. Her hair was cut into bangs it was curled, teasted, and smoothed into the style.

[@urdadsleftasshole69]

@@veganvintagegeek935 whoa, that's pretty neat! Considering my ridiculous lack of hair rats and donuts in my home and the abundance of hairspray, this would be a great alternative :D

[@jaydubbs6123]

I love when your dog interacts with you in your videos, he is so cute. This style does look like Judy Garland in Meet Me In Saint Louis also could work for Joan Crawford too, she did some hairstyles like that too.

[@barbielee7523]

Love it all, Frodo's facial expressions and your captions are perfection !🌷

[@codebason]

I've now completed watching all 368 of your videos, working back through time to the NYX Face Awards win, and then from your first video forwards to this bumper bangs video. You are very good at your job and I'm glad you took the leap and became a full-time KZbinr even though you were scared to. It all worked out fine! You bought a wonderful farmhouse and the only downside is that you no longer sing the 'Hey Mr. Trashman' song. Not only have you entertained me, but I think you have influenced me, too: I generally don't like the colour brown, but a few days ago I was in Value Village (you guys call it Savers) and I bought two long brown coats and a long, brown, houndstooth wool skirt. Maybe I was just caught up in the changing leaves and autumn ambience, but, really, I think it was your brown bias wearing off on me. Keep up the good work.

[@kanamichelle7404]

So THAT’S how they did that! I always wondered! You look cute with bumper bangs!

[@BoazsCrown222]

This video was awesome as always! Love the Frodo outtakes and his comments! I want a hair rat 🐀 now!

[@sew-m-thingclever9806]

I come for the tutorial and stay for the bloopers/Frodo time 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@s28289]

I’m loving your more frequent posts! You seem to be really settling into your new schedule/new job! AND I AM HERE FOR IT!

[@TheGlamourGhoul]

Legit sang "Meet me in St Louis" with you whilst watching this. Thanks for this tutorial! I can't wait to try it out!

[@luizahundt]

I’m loving having so many videos from you every week! We are truly blessed 🙏🏻

[@Lovingdrums]

I really like how hairstyles adding volume suit you! Super cute :)

[@DaniTellsAll]

I just love Frodo running around like a mad thing at the end!!! He so cute!!! Also who knew bumper bangs were actually so "simple".... At least compared to trying to do a victory roll with hair the doesn't ever want to cooperate.... Yay Rachel!!! Keep it up!!!

[@loriolson3191]

So cute! Thanks Rachel and Frodo for making me smile!

[@kaiserfranz8139]

rachel and frodo are my favorite comedic duo.

[@kathrynowl5788]

Youve been so amazing in just creating so many videos in such a short time! So happy for you!

[@rachelmaksy]

Thank you love 😭❤️

[@emmaothorell]

I used to do this style in my teens. If I remember it right I would curl the hair in so that the shape was easier to roll and get right. Obviously not required bc you do it great without curling. Thank you for your great vids 😊

[@morgan32]

So far I've been blessed with more and more Rachel in this New Year and honestly what more could I ask for?

[@sydney9495]

Have you ever thought of doing a Judy Garland "Meet Me in St. Louis" cosplay? These bangs are perfect for that!😍

[@sloanemeyer1606]

Great hair tutorial. I've never seen bumper bangs done. Nice trick to hide the sides!

[@veganvintagegeek935]

Back in the day women had a little decorative glass jar with a lid on their dressing table to hold the hair in. Also known as a hair saver. And if you knew how to crochet you can crochet yourself a hair rat, too. I actually tried to do this when I first started doing vintage hair styles, and the yarn I had at the time was to light and the yarn poked through. Plus back in the early 2000s hair donuts/rats were not as easy to buy or find like they are these days. None of the Walgreens or Dollar stores carried them like they do now. And I went to a superbowl party that night my church was having at some ones house. And a woman I just met was really liking my 1940s hair. That she took her hand and pushed the sticking out yarn rat I had in my hair.🤤 It totally caught me off guard and she was literally going on and on about my hair and clothes. Turns out she was an extra in the movie The Note Book, and she really really missed dressing 1940s, now I understood why she went on the way she did. And a couple of months later I joined her women's bible study, she turned out not to be as creepy as she seemed when we first met.

[@morganlestrange1873]

Thanks for the "all that jazz" love! I've always loved when you did that!

[@imahimfan]

You should do a video (or series?) on caring for your vintage wardrobe! I'm sure you've picked up lots of tips and tricks for washing, storing, ironing etc for vintage/delicate clothing over the years!!

[@ClockworkFaery]

I spotted stealth cat using it’s invisibility cloak at 2.08 disappearing into thin air. 😺❤️

[@KayleighUkulele]

Sooooooo good. I love your videos. I’m so sick of KZbin and all the millionaire gurus out there who put out the same dang over produced videos every day (not to be a downer) BUT YOUUUU! Your videos are so unique and different and so totally Y O U. I love the originality of your style, your ideas, your editing, your humor. I love it all. I’m super happy for you that you bit the bullet and quit your job and believe in yourself! You’re such an inspiration. You’ve got this girl! You’ve got everything it takes! Can’t wait to watch you continue to flourish!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Happy New Year Rachel. 🎉 Wishing you all the best! 🎊

[@LSSYLondon]

Lovely as always! Glad to know how the Meet Me In St Louis hair was done.

[@sierraisstressed]

I never thought of using hairspray for the tips. Good idea.

[@whossoul]

Love this tutorial! I have not been able to get bumper bangs mastered. Its always hiding the ends that is the problem, and I get those weird long hair pieces on the ends that are just not working with everything. I will definitely have to try doing some rolls on the side to hide that! If you ever want a not quite so thick hair rat, you can unroll the doughnut type ones and remove a little of the bulk. I've even used this to make small short ones that help give victory rolls and other 40's styles a lot of height.

[@dawn8525]

Oh I have seen this hairstyle on Judy Garland and I am in LOVE with it but I don't know how to do it. Thank you for saving my life❤❤

[@kikidee6033]

I love your sense of humor & I just watched your 2018 NYX Face Awards videos, congrats! Your looks were so great & really felt like you (at least the you I've seen on the youtubes 😁)

[@ELizbeth135]

Love your videos so much and congrats on being a full time youtuber!! I’d love to see a Judy Garland look book series with some of her most iconic styles!!

[@Fortune-favours-the-bold]

I clicked the thumbs up button before watching because I knew it would be a good video. And I was right lol. Let’s be honest, your editing and content is both awesome and hilarious!

[@ΝικολέταΕλισάβετΑρταβάνη]

Girl you convinced me to grow my bangs. It is a nightmare to keep them still all day with half bottle of hairspray. With your tutorial, there is hope for thin hair people.

[@marutaalfacinha7042]

Aahhahha!! Rachel, you just made my day! I laughed so much, especially at the end, with Frodo. He is so cute! Big kisses from Portugal

[@rachelmaksy]

Heehee thank you love!!!

[@emmaway7]

I love this channel so much! My hair won’t work with this, but my 11 year old niece will sit for me so I can try it on her. She has no idea what vintage is, so I am slowly trying to educate her while still being the cool aunt.

[@michelleross9782]

Could you dye the foam with henna?

[@rachelmaksy]

Not sure! I think it'd just be easier to find a red version though instead of trying to get all that henna out of every single little mesh crevice 😂

[@screamingnspace]

If you find a red one, please link it! I have been searching but never found one.

[@sarangeonew]

love your videos, and love your edits. so much fun watching you :)

[@andreahidalgolujan7029]

Aaaaand I had to pause to go and watch the video of the Chicago song.. Thanks Rachel! I had forgotten how much I love Catherine Zeta-Jones in that

[@rachelmaksy]

Hahaha yes!!

[@reneehowdy7673]

Another terrific video! So fun and playful. I laughed throughout the entire thing. Frodo is too cute. Now that I know bumper bangs are so easy I'm tempted to give them a try. I'm not sure it will work for me since I have bangs. I love your sense of humor. You made my afternoon. Love to you and Frodo! :)

Heehee thank you love!!!

Meet Me In St Louis is my favorite movie and this tutorial has made my day. I know you didn’t make this solely because of the movie but omg

[@jayyates1676]

I love this look on you. Reminds me of Judy Garland in Meet Me in St. Louis.

[@lauradelrey2903]

When I had red hair, I bought a few wefts of cheap extensions and colored them the same color as my hair, then stuffed them into a hair net to make a form that matched my color. It worked pretty well!

[@mastersadvocate]

I had to watch this video again, because I wanted to see how you used the hair doughnut. Also because if I watch what is going on in the background, I can see Frodo or Binx doing strange things behind your back! Your pets always crack me up! I love you, Frodo, and Binx!!! Take care! ~Janet in Canada 😁😋😍

[@Rinthony1]

I’ve had short short hair for years but I started growing it out months ago so I could do all the vintage hair styles you do tutorials of. Right now it’s a bit Phryne Fisher-ish but SOON! ONE DAY I’LL BE ABLE TO FOLLOW ALONG WITH THESE VIDS!

I've tried "Bumper" bangs without a hair rat, or hair doughnut, and it worked out okay. I love the way you did yours, though! Much more sturdy, and will deffo protect you if you bump your head. LOL! I'll bet I know where all of your scissors went! They went to the scissors party, somewhere in your house, then got lost!! ROFL! I love that you included Frodo in your video. He's so cute!!
