Video Tutorial: Mock 20s Finger Waves, How To Fix Messed A Up Fringe

Me with Anna from www.Princess-Anna-Anastasia.Blogspot.com


I often find myself getting hair envy, this coupled with my impulsive nature has often caused problematic hair tragedies. Over the years, I have had my fair share of wtf did I do this hair moments, and over the years I have come up with various ways to ride the storm. The latest instalment in my hair horrors, was this short straight fringe which I cut, and almost instantly wished I didn't. Why? You'll see why, when you watch the video (it's quite funny). You will also see how to fix it like a G by riding the storm with some mock finger waves for a 20s vintage chic look.

#OOTD 20s style for your 20s



I have been feeling classic lately, it all started after watching Downton Abbey this Sunday, when Elizabeth got a 20's hair cut and became a 'new woman'. The episode had me pining for a 20's beauty look, and a quick fix for the fringe (bangs) I cut which I am now sorely regretting. The solution? Pin the hair back in a mock pin curl. More on the beauty side of the look later- the point is, that the hair sparked my decision to keep the theme & so I went for a complimenting simplistic 20's look with this H&M fur collar coat and mustard shift dress from Cos. Paired with ankle socks and we have a contemporary take on a classic look.


The dress I got from Cos, last season, but the great news is they have this very similar shift dress- most importantly in Mustard, which is basically the most important part, as the contrast in the black and yellow is what makes this look pop. The coat is in H&M, this season and in stock and was made from recycled wool from their renewable fashion range. How it works is you bring in your old clothes, and get £5.00 off your next purchase, and they recycle the material to make keep the fashion circle going. It is brilliant to see a brand being responsible, and being given £5.00 to get rid of unwanted clothes isn't too bad either. What is the best part is this is a wool coat, for £59.00! Thats a bargain!
