She really looks like she is in the 1940's!! Her hair, makeup, and clothing is pefect! (And the music is a plus! :P)

[@annejlee8]

so pretty!!! i always wonder when women do vintage looks...do old men ever look at them and think wow....memory lane......and they think of their gfs, wives, etc from back then

[@charl0tte120]

+Jayne Starr I thought the same! It would be fun if someone did a Social experiment or something with that :)

[@amandalovsness7550]

+Jayne Starr My sister and I went to Disneyland and did 1950s inspired looks and an older gentleman told us we looked like the girls he use to date back in the 50s. That comment made my whole day :)

[@shannondawn44]

Ohhh , I love that . I have heard that before too . That must have been so nice . Cheers from NB , Canada

[@Taikyaa]

I always think this.

[@LunaQur]

It is so adorable

[@litlhafgost]

This is one of the best proper vintage hair tutorials I've found! I'm glad you show through pin curls to the end. And it doesn't hurt that you are absolutely beautiful. You have the perfect look for that time period.

[@jodyjarvis8501]

When I look at Gil Elvgren Pinup paintings, sometimes my heart flutters at the sheer beauty of them. My heart fluttered as you put on your hat, turned sweetly and smiled. It was a moment of perfection!

[@vintagegal8]

Thank you! You're so sweet! :)

[@ashleycarr9589]

I love love this and ur hair and ur hair color me want 😍😍😍

[@AudioJeep]

You look stunning with that. You should seriously go out in public like this.

[@alcyonae]

What I like the most is that this tutorial is that it is almost real-time, no cuts. Once I get the hang of it, the brush out shouldn’t last more than 10 minutes or so. Worth it!!

[@AnAdorableWombat]

Finally! Someone who does this hairstyle cotrect! Mainly the bangs

[@la-lv4fq]

Thank you. Okay, now I can go kick ass everyday looking like Peggy Carter.

[@WTFshortie]

Can you do a tutorial on how you do your makeup? Because its gorgeous! You're gorgeous! And I love your hair! You're just so fabulous and classy :)

[@vintagegal8]

Thank you soooo much! I will put together a makeup tutorial very soon! :)

[@shannondawn44]

I would also love to see a makeup tutorial :)

[@rachelwei74]

Loooove your 40s vintage wave tutorial! It's been the best one I found and you are very pretty and amazing!!

[@glamourdaze]

just exquisite and yes a little bit Gene Tierney . New fan of your channel.

[@Pielobyte]

whole look is eccelent . Love those bell sleeves as well

[@thebluemom1]

Awesome, betting her grandfather LOVES the look

[@ashleycarr9589]

I wish my grandpa was still alive to see me with this look, he was a young man in his early-mid 20's in WWII, Im sure it would of brought him some memories

[@lucillasole]

Bellissimo colore di capelli.....straordinario....complimenti!!!💟

[@amberMonsta]

You're beautiful!!! You really have that vintage look! I know that sounds crazy..

[@chamchaolover]

My grandmother grew up in the 40s and did her pin curls like this. Gorgeous!

[@vintagegal8]

I have very straight hair as well. Setting lotion definitely helps maintain the curls throughout the day. For the best results, it's best to set your hair after you wash it. While it's still damp, spray the setting lotion like you would if your hair was dry. As always, make sure your hair dries completely. Lengh is also a factor. If you have longer hair, I would recommend making smaller pin curls.

[@Stephanie.11.]

So cute!

[@shoevixen1219]

Mariana, I agree this is one of the best vintage tutorials I've seen! I was wondering though.. have you ever considered makiing a vintage makeup tutorial? I couldn't help but notice that you have a very nice wing tip eye liner technique. That is something I haven't been able to master yet. Maybe you could consider walking us though how you do your makeup as well. It goes nicely with a 40's hair style. Thanks and keep the video's coming!

[@hayleywise7403]

You really are a pin-up doll!!! ❤🥰

[@larissaottinger997]

I followed your tutorial Friday night for an event Saturday and it came out wonderfully! Your instructions were perfect. My hair even lasted through the rest of the weekend and I'm sad to wash it out :) Excellent tutorial!

[@cominatrix]

i stand by the fact that most people look positively gorgeous with this style and between your makeup and the curls, you are looking fantastic, doll! thanks for making this. I've been wondering about this for ages. that must have been rough to sleep on though.

[@kaptainrogers]

It's almost like u stepped out of a time capsule. :D your amazing

[@MargheritaChic]

I was looking for Peggy Carter look and when I saw mini pic of your video I thought you look amazing! I hope you will do Peggy Carter look, hair and makeup it will be very useful and I know you will look stunning. You really have beuty for those quite ald vintage traditional looks. Greetings! Wish you all the best! :DD

[@HisOnly17]

Just when I think she has it perfectly coiffed she goes in with the brush again. In the end it still came out nicely.

[@skylilly1]

So pretty! You look like you're getting ready to make a movie for MGM! :)

[@Graciexx1000]

I this video was from a while ago but I just wanted to say how much this video has helped me. I can never get pin curls right and they looked amazing after I'd followed your tutorial! Thanks so much! x

[@vintagegal8]

That's wonderful! I'm so glad it was helpful!!! Thank you so much for watching! :)

[@maryl5712]

You look so cute with the hat on and you do remind me of the 40s.

[@IamMinnie90]

Simply stunning! Your tutorials are the only flawless ones I can find on youtube..You are the vintage queen in my eyes! Thank You,darling!

[@camilyn90]

You are gorgeous!!! Your makeup is flawless and your hair is just fantastic!

[@JapaneseAnimalover]

I have very curly hair that is also heavily layered so as I am attempting this I am thinking " Jesus take the wheel" as my frizz has already taken over not even 3 minutes after getting all the curls in.

[@vintagegal8]

Thank you so very much! Many women actually had their hair in layers to create the waterfall look. One good example is Rita Hayworth's hair. So pin curl your hair according to your layers. Use the same amount of hair that I used in this tutorial.

[@D1NonlyKoko]

This is such a lovely and delicate hairstyle!

[@cowardlyheroine]

Do you think I can pull this off as an everyday look for school? Feeling a bit nervous about it...I really love this look!

[@jaimie8664]

+Lilith Yes!!

[@g.sdfghkldbfkebxbbdjxjdj9857]

Your hair is gonna die....it's cute for somedays but take care of your hair n.n

[@shannondawn44]

Why will her hair die ?

[@g.sdfghkldbfkebxbbdjxjdj9857]

Ignore me, her hair won't die.

[@shannondawn44]

Max G. ok

[@vintagegal8]

It took me several tries before I become comfortable with the technique. I have been doing it for years now and it's my preferred technique. I would start out my setting larger size pin curls, especially since you have thick hair. I'm sure it'll turn out just lovely! Keep practicing and you'll soon become pro! :)

[@tiffanyp1416]

I’ve literally watched this video throughout the years since it’s been posted. I’m always going back to it 😩🙏

[@natava1]

I am almost speechless. Completely amazing! Thank You. for sharing.

[@thepigun]

That look is stunning on you!

[@gloriakummer5357]

Your techniques create the best looks out of anyone out there. I think I want to dye my hair that color!

[@emilyvaldes627]

She's so classy that I want to prevent myself from cursing to not feel dirty.

[@KainyStyle]

Looking gorgeous, darling!

[@cheriechetyrbok]

So pretty. Great refresher! Thank you. Was doing 50's pin up for years then a brief dull stop at current modern styles, yawn. :) I will try 1940's now as my hair is long now. Love it. I too love Gene and Rita, though Marilyn was my first beauty icon I emulated since age 14, but now Veronica Lake is more my style. Thanks again beauty.

[@Naomi-vr4fw]

I want to do this for a murder mystery party! I’m really excited to try it

[@nataushalight1684]

Beautiful, and I love the makeup too!

[@zinmomo7192]

Thank You so much! 💗 this helped me a lot! You so beautiful by the way! I love staring at your luscious hair and elegant face! Your voice is so soothing as well!

[@katiehartmann5265]

I've been looking for a great tutorial for this exact look! Thank you! Such a beautiful job, so excited to try this out!

[@bubbleburst27]

This is the best tutorial I've seen for a simple vintage 40s look. Good job!

[@Baerbar]

wait what? she took out the curls, ran her fingers through her hair, brushed it a little, and it was perfect? must be magic...

[@ariannywannabe75]

Queen of the Universe!

[@dollrae454]

I love your tutorials! You really know what you're talking about when it comes to achieving these vintage hairstyles and do a great job explaining everything.

[@vintagegal8]

Thank you so much! That means a great deal to me!! :)

[@elizabethabbott9177]

Lovely tutorial, I really enjoyed it and you look absolutely super! Thank you.

[@yougotthepower]

[@Jerusalem23]

Wow I bet your great grandmothers from both sides were just as beautiful as you during those days. Side note: I use to color Rita Hayworths daughter's hair. Her name is Yasmine.

[@charlottehernandez8803]

You're stunning! I can't wait to try this style!

[@moonshineman33]

[@vintagegal8]

Thank you for your kind words! That means a lot!

[@brigettedaisy]

Your look reminds me so much of Judy Garland, thanks for the tutorial!

[@OwlishFun]

This is an amazing tutorial, and easily my favourite 40s period hair tutorial I've seen. It was really clear, with great tips and explanations, and the result at all stages is amazing! I really cannot wait to try it out! I was linked here my FreshBlush's Peggy Carter tutorial, and I'm so glad :)

[@netanya529]

wow! this hairstyle is so cute!

[@ashtonbyrne5722]

This is seriously the best thing I have seen in a while. I am so going to try it! My hair is pretty long thought so I am not sure how it will hold up.

[@suezeekins61]

You totally nailed the 40s look. Nice!!

[@Alice0579]

[@greta9522]

It looks so beautiful❤

[@MsGebrannteMandel]

Oh my goodness you're sooo beautiful!!! And this look is reaaally amazing!!!

[@skylied2883]

Tried it, loved it. Don’t have same products here and hair was a bit longer than hers, but after brushing though pinned the end curl under at my neck’s base to make my hair shoulder length(had so many Bobbi pins after step1) went to Halloween party & it stayed fabulous all night :) still is! Shall 100% do often (but quicker now)

[@tharaphee]

Absolutely love this it's spot on!! Xx

[@sarahnuttall355]

i love your hair colour!!! it's perfect. i bleached mine and i don't want to anymore, as i'm naturally dark brown i think a lighter colour similar to yours would suit me and give more definition to my curls! :) thanks for the video

[@m_door]

Best video i have seen thanks

[@fulltang85]

Gorgeous!

[@lydiaalmodovar4353]

Am doing this look. Thank you and your beautiful. Im in my late 50s and a redhead. I think i could pull it off. Lol.

[@tomcalvert7482]

Very classy look. Cute accent too! Much love from England xx

[@crietman29]

You are just beautiful and your hair is amazing!

[@picturesquedoll7280]

You are beyond perfect! oh myy

[@5050TM]

My god, you're like a perfect little doll, especially while wearing that lovely hat! Great videos! I subscribed ♥♥♥

[@brandynotabrand]

this is so thorough! honestly I've been trying pin curls for a couple of months now and they are just so finicky my hair always ends in a mess one way or another, so all these tips have been amazing! thank u!

[@cinnamonconrad9112]

Definitely going to try this out tonight!

[@SuperzKat]

Where do you buy your clothes, please? They're gorgeous ♥

[@vintagegal8]

Try different hair treatments and see which one works best. Also if you use to much setting lotion it may leave your hair with a crunchy feel to it. So I would add more water to the mixture. What is your hair type?

[@jjjonse]

Stunning and I love the hat :D

[@audreydesormeaux9810]

That's great, thank you very much ! 👍🏻

[@haydenmorrison7505]

You should do a tutorial for the makeup you did with this video! You looked so cute!
