Practising contemporary look- 1940's Victory rolls with modern twist

Well, isn't easy to create something which looks amazing and have a modern twist. So my chosen decade was 1940's Victory rolls. So this contemporary look I will made with on the one side victory roll and small bun from braids at the bottom of the head. So first I straight a hair, this time I want it to get silky smooth look



So, first I straight the hair to get the silky smoothly hair, by using flat brush and steamer, and wait until dry completely. Then I separate fringe with some more piece of the hair on the top of head, smooth them by using hairspray and wax, to smooth protruding single hair, then using my two fingers I rolled them and pined them to the scalp, using bobby pins. I really struggle with this part, a many times repeat it to get properly Victory rolls, secure them with more bobby pins hiding between hair .


Next part, from hair behind the head I made two small braids, I left I the middle straight. Here on the pictures I did differently, I did pony tail and made a space-gap between hair and slipped the hair in the middle, edges put inside the twirl and pined.




I added purple flower to decorate the hair.


 Here you can see, I made two small braids, pined them to the middle, straight hair insert between braids, and secured with bobby pins. I was quite happy with my modern look.


 
Next step I practise to put the acrylic wig on my friend head. So I made it a base from two French braids. I secured them with bobby's pins.



Next part with Mihaela help I insert thigh cap to cover hair, any protruding hair slipped underneath cap and secured with pins.



Then again with Miheala help I put an acrylic wig on her head, checked  that was straight, any protruding hair slipped underneath, secured with pins and style it if I made some damage.









So this is my practical final temporary look, I was quiet happy with result.
