ok how the hell do you just twist the hair and it goes like *POP!* Judy Garland! *POP!* Emma Watson! when I twist it one side looks mediocre and the other looks like Severus Snape going drag for the first time

Have you thought about vintage wigs? They're some pretty one's out there!

[@rachelmaksy]

Hi my loveeeees! So pardon my really dry scalp and horrible dye job, winter has not been kind to my skin and also I'm horrible at dying my own hair. 😎 I hope you guys enjoy this regardless! (Also I know my bobby pins are really visible, and you can totally try to hide them better than I did, I just don't really care to 😂)

[@darcyreadssometimes3904]

Girl, I didn't notice at all.

Any hair tutorial: uses Bobby pins My hair: how about we don’t let that happen

[@just-trying-my-best-everyday]

Same

[@sallykat6944]

Try putting your bobby pins in an X shape - it's the only thing that works on my hair! First pin pins the hair, second pin pins the pin

[@heatherb1700]

Same. I leave a trail of bobby pins wherever i go...

[@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823]

I used mousse on wet hair, twisted each section, spayed it with Aqua Net and netted it for 9 hours. Half came out like Rita Hayworth. The other half, like Joan Crawford after a bender. Lol But, straight as it is, it DID curl. Still wavy now after 2 days. Just pin curls.

[@samanthapenaluna-litjens477]

@@sallykat6944 also flipping the wavy side down helps to hold it in place without moving :)

Every year my church has a 1890s vintage baseball game. This year I used your Gibson girl video to do my hair, which is how i found your channel. I always have a lot fun dressing up and I think your channel is wonderful.

[@heatherknutson]

That sounds like so much fun!

[@FeelKarmatic]

Oh my this is so helpful ! The "Gibson tuck" is so easy and cleverly done ahah it looks like you put a lot of time in it when really it didn't ! Well done girl 👌

[@rachelmaksy]

+CillyKarma Hehe exactly!! ❤️

[@CaityCat05]

I loved learning the headscarf part at the end!! I’ve seen pictures of my Grandma and Great Grandma from the ‘40s and 50s wearing this to protect their hair from dirt and whatnot when they worked on the family farm and they looked SO lovely!! My Grandma just turned 90 this year❤️

I love that 1940's turban.

[@RebekahMartinModernJaneAusten]

When the bows were coming out of your turban, it was like a silent film. LOL. I definitely need to try these. I'm going to a wedding next month, and that Gibson tuck might be the perfect easy hairstyle. Now to find flowery combs...

[@seltzermint5]

I showed friends how to do the turban and they thought I was some kind of wizard! It was 100% this video I learned from. Thank you!

[@thegreatestmels5391]

Ok a bit random but: I just discovered your channel and I absolutely LOVE it! I love your humor and I am really inspired by your style! I am really thinking about trying out more vintage stuff! I just love how it looks 😍 Anyways, really happy to have found you!

[@korinneguthrie]

The 40's turban is how I wear my hair to bed. I either braid or make four buns and cover with a scarf.

[@rachelmaksy]

+Korinne Guthrie Yeees! It's perfect for sleeping! I use it that way when I wanna protect my curls at night hehe

[@Julian41110]

I just love how you finish your videos with outtakes! Frodo dancing at the end of this one is the best!!

[@Euthanasia95]

+Sammi McSporran 😊😊😊 Noted!

[@Danimbern]

I watched this some 2 days ago and i'm back to say that you saved my lifed exactly 2 times since then. I was getting restless with my growing hair (i've been a short hair girl for a long while now) and I didn't know what to do with it until 2 days ago... So, thanks! A lot! I loved that they were really easy to do, even I, that have no practice dealing with hair could do it! Also, love the bloopers at the end!

[@becjane11]

This is so great thank you! My hair is dead straight and won’t keep a curl for more than an hour 😂 if you have any ideas for shorter hair/bob length that would be awesome!

[@MinaF99]

Bec the ideal look to me for someone who doesn't want curly hair but a vintage look is velma kelly hair

[@becjane11]

Mina F thanks for the suggestion! 😊

[@rachelmaksy]

+Bec I follow a couple amazing bob-length ladies on Instagram, @machinedance and @vintage_egyptologist ❤️😊

Sometimes I just consider a wig because mine is so straight and I'm so lazy

[@KobayashiMaru89]

Thank you so much for this!! I've had trouble committing to the vintage curls, so these options are so useful. I loved your milkmaid braids tutorial from before, I'll definitely be adding these others to my arsenal! ^_^

Thank you for this video! The Gibson tuck has become one of my go-tos for when I want something casual but nice. I actually used it for my graduation photos!

[@beatlebiscuits2295]

I love all of these hairstyles, but I have bangs that aren’t long enough to pin back, so some of these just aren’t gonna work. 🤣 I will try the milkmaid braids, though I don’t know how well it’s gonna work out. Thanks for another awesome video! Edit: Sooooo I tried the milkmaid braids and it was adorable! I got so many compliments! I had to use literally a BAJILLION bobby pins, but it worked :) Thanks !

[@veganvintagegeek935]

Cool! I'm always on the look out for easy vibtage quick hairstyles, I am so going to try this. I have'nt curled my hair in about 3 years and on my thin wavy hair I'm able to do vintage 1940s-1950s hair styles. My go to is a side part, I apply some layrite super shine pomade, smells like bandages but works great. I then grab some hair on the side of my head. Just enough so my ear is showing, comb it straight and up with a fine tooth comb. I take the hair in my fingers and twist it and push it forward to get that volume, and pin in place with bobby pins. The same on the other side this will make a side pomp, and pin in place. I like to prep my hair on wash day, once its air dried but damp. I use a little bit of Layrite super shine pomade on these sections of my hair and style as stated above. And since I live in a very windy environment I also stray these sections of my hair with my favorite hair spray, big sexy hair Stay & Play hair spray. And I only wash my hair twice a week. To restyle I sleep with my hair still styled from the day before, and in the morning I re-comb my hair. And I use a shower cap too, on the days I do not wash my hair. I take the pins out and lightly spray my hair with water on the sides of my hair, comb through and restyle using the twist and push method just like I stated above and I bobby pin every thing back in place. I check my hair to make sure everything is smooth before adding hair spray. This style can also be put in a ponytail too. I first fix up the front of the hair then add the ponytail to the back. There is also one where I parted my hair down the middle and took a section of hair enough so the ears show. Comb this up with a fine tooth comb. And pretty much do the same as the other hair styles, twist and push forward to create volume. And comb together and smooth out pieces that separate before spraying with hair spray.

[@TheDeerhunter316]

Also could you replace the buttons with white shaft buttons of the same size or even normal if you prefer considering the proper way to sew a flat button is making it a thread shaft

[@rachelmaksy]

+Cerebro.crash I'm totally gonna replace them with wider buttons. Good BYE annoying poop buttons 😎

[@TheDeerhunter316]

Just make sure whatever button you choose can fit through the button hole

I think the 1940s turban could still work on the awkward growing pixie? I should've tried it last year when I had my pixie, but I didn't think of the idea soon enough and just dealt with my baby mullet 😭

[@whossoul]

Do you watch Lisa Fremont Streets channel? A while back she cut off all her hair and she made lots of tutorials for vintage hair styles for super short hair and styles you can do during the growing out period!!

[@rachelmaksy]

[@AndromedaCripps]

SO HELPFUL!! I haven't tried any yet but I've been looking for good vintage hairstyles fir a while. I did my own research, I watched Karolina's video (also great but in not at a point where I'm ready to pin curl my hair every night, though I'd like to someday), but couldn't find anything good fir my exact hair type/length. I have VERY long hair but most of these styles incorporate pony tails (which I wear like everyday anyway) which allow me to have my long hair flow free, plus none of them require layered or short bangs! Thank you thank you thank you SOOOOOO MUCH for this!!!!!!!!

[@kezziahclark99]
