50's hair with volume and lift

Hair for fashion and beauty

Creating 50's hair with volume!

The 50's is definitely my fave era in terms of makeup and hair fashions. 50's hair had lots of curls with volume and victory rolls! 

Products and equipment:

  • Heat protection spray
  • Hot heated rollers & clips
  • Gel spray
  • Pintail comb
  • Vitapointe
  • Pins & grips
  • Wide tooth comb
  • Hair spray
To create victory rolls in the hair the hair should be dry and clean. If needed you can use dry shampoo to make the hair easier to back comb to give the hair style more structure. To create this hair style the hair should ALWAYS be rolled over the roller.

When setting the hair in the heated rollers to create this type of hair style it is important to take neat sections of hair and to also place each roller in the hair in the right direction. 

Step by step:
  1. Spray the hair with heat protection spray.
  2. Section the hair with a wide side parting. The parting going from the end of the eye brow.
    Leave the rest of the hair as one big section. 
  3. With the big side section use the biggest heated rollers you have to roll the hair over each roller. Begin from the front of the hair line, spray gel spray through the lengths of the hair to achieve more structured curls. Repeat this step throughout this section of hair. You can use a few smaller rollers in this section as you get further back. 
  4. On the other side section around the face place one big roller vertically into this section.Spray the gel spray through the lengths of the hair. This section of hair should also be over the top of the roller.
  5. When you reach the back section you should apply the rollers as brick work over the hair. 
  6. Allow the hair to cool before removing the heated rollers.
  7. Begin removing the rollers and styling from the hair line again. You should use your pin tail comb to backcomb sections of hair in the big front section to give the hair a bit more structure. You can apply Vitapointe to this section of hair to make the hair easier to work with then smooth the hair with the pintail comb and create the victory roll shape using your hand to support the structure. You can then use hair pins and grips to hold the victory roll in place.
  8. Then remove all the other rollers from the hair and smooth some Vitapointe into the hair to smooth the hair out slightly. Grip the other side section of hair backwards of the face. You should then use a wide tooth comb to break the curls up to look more natural.
  9. Spray the hair with hairspray to finish.
