40S Brush Out On Long Hair | Tutorial
I'm going to show you how to do an authentic-looking 40s brush out. The iconic hairstyle you see in all the photos from back in the day! My hair is a bit longer than the typical 40s cut though, so I'll have to work around that. I'm also going to cheat a bit and use a curling iron to speed up the pin curling process. Enjoy!

Hey guys today, I am going to show you how to do a typical 40s brush out hairstyle, the typical iconic forties waves and I'm going to show you how to do it on longer hair and I'm going to use a little bit of a cheat method and Use a curling iron instead of your traditional set of pincurls, assess your rest overnight, so you can see the finished result on my hair right now and to learn this. I watched a YouTube video by a lovely lady here on YouTube. I will put the links to her videos in the description kind of how I taught myself how to do for you brush out, but I am going to use a little bit of a different method today, but it's just a little bit quicker a little bit less Authentic, to be honest, but still gives a really nice result, and I have a little bit longer hair than your typical for these haircuts who we have been so if you want to know how to do this, then definitely keep on watching. I am going to begin by sectioning my hair properly, so I want to make a quite deep side parting, like this comb liner to the side, and then I am going to make another parting from here. Going all the way down to my ear same thing on this side and now all the hands I have in the back, I'm just going to clip away for now we're going to start working on sauce just this side of the way, and now I'm going to Continue sectioning I'm going to make sections around this white all the way down to my fear and then I'm going to just in the back for now and then come back to work on those later and now, since my hair is pretty thin, this one I'm just Going to leave as one so that I get at least somewhat substantial curl, so moving on, I am going to use this heat activated setting spray, and this is going to make sure my hair sets into a good curl that will hold. So I am going to spray my hair with this spritz it and now is the part where I start to cheat, because I'm going to use a curling iron. This is just a lot quicker than setting your hair and pin curls overnight or under one of those kind of hairdryer things which I don't need to have by the way. So this is just a lot easier for me, so I'm going to take a 19 millimeter curling iron here and you post quite a small one for pin curls. So what I'm going to do with this is curl my hair, towards my face like that and now I'm curling my hair and activating the setting lotion. So then, I'm going to slide the iron out of my hair and I'm going to pinch the curl like that and I am going to bend into my head like a pink girl like that for it. So it's time to take the next section of hair, and this section I'm going to divide into few and make two pink girl benefits, starting with the back wall, all right so now the front one. Now, of course I do have fangs. So I'm going to have to make a little bit more of an effort to incorporate those into my curl, but I'm pretty sure it's doable all right. So this is why I'm going to continue doing with these two seconds as well and then I'll be back. Oh, this section is done now, so I'm going to move on to the other side and I'm going to do the exact same thing so start by sectioning everything off again clean wide sections of courses on the side yeah. I think I'm just going to do two. So everything else is exactly the same: I'm even going to curl my hair in the same direction. So this time I'm going to curl away from my face Roberts to Ward 6. In fact, I'm going to curl all of my hair in the same direction. So all the back of my hair things you curl in this direction as well, and that's just really going to help later when we do the brochure fros is done so now I'm going to move on to the back of my hair, I'm going to let that All this hair and I'm going to do the exact same thing, I'm going to work in rows on the back of my head. So I'm going to start here and just work my way down and I'm going to curl my hair pinch, the girls spin it to my head and leave it to set like stuff. Oh and this time I'm going to work from the top down just a little bit easier and with the first few curls. If you make you'll, want to make sure that you don't go all the way to your roots. You want to leave a couple of centimetres where you start your crew, all right people. Thank you. Spin. It right here right on to the next one. All of my hair is now pink curled. It took a while I'll be honest. This is about something. If you quickly, but still the curling iron should save you some time so I'm having to wait for as long as I can to allow this to cool down and completely set into these curls. I think I'm going to take an hour too many. If you don't have that much time, then at least wait until everything is completely cooled down. You give it at least 15 or 30 minutes again the longer the better. So I'm going to allow this to set for a little bit and then I will be back sure the rest of the hairstyle. It has been a while, since I last checked in so it is last time to move on to the actual brush out. So I'm going to start by removing my pin, curls and learning everything down and hoping it has that now that what sorry I just going to start on the bottom and work my way up, that's just the easiest way to do this all right. So it's looking good so far. This is how we wanted to look - and I am very happy to see my hair is gone quite a lot shorter through the cooling process. So now I am going to take a very dense brush. I'M using my boards over here and I am going to start brushing my hair out and the first step is to just make everything combined together, so I'm going to brush the back part, so everything is behind my poor thing. Just keep back like that, smooth it out and here we're recording it I'm going to brush sideways. Let me just brush everything together. Maybe this is a little bit easier if you run your fingers through your hair. First, you separate the comb little bit, for you start brushing them okay, so my ultimate goal now is to make all of my hair combine together into one big curl, and this is just going to take a lot of brushing a lot of manipulating the curls and Trying to get them to stick together, so let me just take my front section here, I'm very glad my bangs have incorporated into this my three, so my hair is a little bit longer than your typical forties haircut would have been. So I think you take a little bit more work for you to make all of my hair turn under really likes me, but I'm going to try and make this work anyway. I won't a Felicia all right, so, as you can see, we are definitely getting somewhere. I'M thinking now I should have girls this bit towards the outside, rather than towards the inside. I think that was a mistake, but other than that the brushing is working. So what really helps is to kind of gradually move your hands down, and you keep brushing this and that way you kind of get those ways with that lower bit turn a work. The back of my hair has combined nicely and screeching screech it a little bit more [ Applause, ], okay. I am quite happy with the way it is looking now like. I mentioned it's a little bit longer than the typical forties hairstyle and I am definitely sure should curl face outward, but other than that I am happy. So I'm going to take a comb, not calling comb wealthy, and I am just going to use that to clip back this side of my hair. So I am just going to push it in and right here behind my ear, and this is something that will have done a lot back then, and then I'm just going to take some hairspray, bring everything down, make sure it doesn't go anywhere, make sure to spray. Underneath the Hara smells really important for that herbal. That was just spend so much time and effort brushing under and there it is, I am very happy to say, we have successfully recreated a 45 file on longer hair, using a curling iron, no overnight waiting for hours and hours hours. So yes, I am very happy. Let'S take a look at the finished results a little more time so do let me know what you think. I know some of you guys are which my videos are complete expert on StoryCorps exiling.

Comments
Julia Angelina: This is unbelievably beautiful, why is this not in style!?! I'm going to try it! Too bad none of my clothes are classy enough to pair with it.
Debbie Novotny: Hi Lucy! Just a quick tip: to reduce frizziness expecially on the tips, try and brush them against the palm of your hand and mold the curl that way. It really works! By the way I love your tutorials, expecially the historical ones, I'm a big history freak! Keep up the good work!
JessiHarm: With pin curls the best first thing to remember is you setting pattern will absolutely have an effect on the direction the curls go, and the look after brush out. Alternating rows was very common for 30s and 40s to get those perfectly lovely s curves, or c curls. Think Veronica lake who had really long hair. Another huge thing is patience with the brush out. Break the curls up with fingers first, and then use a brush. It will get poofy, frizzy and over all terrifying, but the more you brush the smoother it gets, and make sure you are shaping and brushing at the same time. I like to use my hand to help shape and smooth. I hold a section in hand and run the brush over and around my palm. I think the 1940s are the best years for pin culs. Although the 30s bob can be fun.
Natascha Clerinx: With that tiny comb you put in your hair. If you want to create that true 40ties effect you need to do the comb and tuck. So you take that little comb and turn it around so the inside of the comb is facing up. Then you cpb the bit of hair you want to pull back with that tiny comb (again still with the inside facing up) Then when you get to the spot you want your hair to be pinned back, you lift up the comb a bit and twist it so the right side is facing up. And then you slide the comb in your hair. This gives that nice tucked effect to the hair and it's very very secure. My grandmother taught me this.
23: Rita Hayworth was one of the few hollywood stars who had long curls so your hair is acurate despite the length. Very nice!
Katie Alger: Thank you for the tutorial! I graduate high school in may and I’m having a late 1940s early 1950s themed party and I’m so exited to start dressing in the vintage style!
Alanna Serrano: Yessss more 1940's hair please!!!!!
S. Ashley Andres: I remember in my pinup days when I used to do a Marilyn look pretty much every day, occasionally I would do a 40s brushed-out curls style, my hair was dark and a lot shorter back then so it kind of looked like Ava Gardner ☺️
Emily Micah: You look like Agent Carter from Captain America!! I definitely want to this look.
Evie C: i have to say, you have a face that can pull off any era. That so cool!
carefulnowted: Ooh, I love this, you look just like Peggy Carter! This is perfect for a fancy dress party or something - it's such a classy look. Thanks for the modification for us longer-haired girls as well!
林英敏: This look is so feminine and sophisticated. I love the make up also
Hanne: Thank you for making this. I pincurl my hair a lot, but since I have bangs and long hair, I have never been able to make it look "authentic". I will give this a try soon.
Dog Scott: Your hair is so gorgeous and looks so healthy and soft
Tansy McNally: I really can't stand make-up and hair tutorials on YouTube but I love your tutorials. Your approach is so fun and relatable, plus you describe things incredibly well. Thank you!
Wiktoria: LOVE this one! All of your recreations and tutorials are wonderful and magnificent, but I cannot wait to try this one tomorrow! It's a shame I missed the chance to win those tickets for the 18th and 19th of March, because I'm aching to meet you. But maybe next time :) Amazing job Lucy!
Rachel H: Perfect. My daughter has mid-back length hair and is playing the part of an American tourist in the 1940's. I'm going to work on perfecting this for the production in December. Thanks for the tutorial
EmDarcy: I have pictures of my great grandmother with her hair styled like this! Thanks for the "cheat" tutorial using a curling iron!
momoyome: oh my gosh going from brushing them out and they look all frizzy to the end is magic O_O
Hannah Rose: what a genius idea having the mirror behind you! love this look!

fksongbird28: I love this look! And it looks gorgeous on you!
Johnna Palmer: A Denman brush works the best for me when doing a brush out. The rubber base makes zero static and frizz when brushing out. And you were correct, combing through the curls with your fingers first helps. Other than that great video!
G M: This look is amazing! I'm going to try it (I have long hair and I usually can't achieve it!)

Amanda Jarboe: I love this look! Especially with my long hair! It's so romantic!!
Belinda Perkins-Brooks: You explained all the details in such a way that you made it look effortless. I love the way your hair turned out. It's a great deal of work when transforming your long hair to the twenties look, but it turned out beautifully on you.
Betta Blue: Gorgeous! This is your style. You definitely curled it exactly the correct way.
Lilac and Gooseberries: You nailed this look. I love it!
Teresa: I wonder whether that'll work on my hip-length hair... Love the look :)
T C: I've always wondered how that hairstyle was created! I would not have expected you could do it this way - thank you so much!! I can't wait to try it. Haha, would it be weird if I just wore it to class? :)
Assia Hamidi: Wat een mooie haarstijl! Je hebt me geinspireerd om eindelijk dan een haarkruller te kopen en dit te proberen. Ga zo door Loepsie <3
Robin Bird 62: New subscriber here, I love the glamorous hairstyles! I too have long hair, and I really enjoy trying different styles through the decades!
Shawn Michielsen: Love it! The way you’re able to do these older hairstyles on longer hair is really cool. Nicely done! Oh, and also cool you’re Dutch. I was able to notice the accent, however, it’s not as thick as the Dutch accent of most Dutchies. Big complement to you! Your English is also really good. Keep on doing what you do :), also cool that one of your videos went viral, that’s how I found your channel. To end, Loepsie, je kanaal is heel gaaf, je hebt leuke informatieve videos en een fijne manier van vertellen. Greetings from another Dutch girl.
Tina Knowlton: You look really cool with the pins in! That could definitely be an all day look!
hi hi: Gonna try this for prom!! I love vintage hairstyles
masakasama: Although the style for hair was typically shoulder-length, the 40s was the first decade where adult women could style their hair completely loose and long. So it wasn't unheard of to have very long hair as long as it was properly set and brushed out.
Erin Malik: i have a drama exam on wednesday and this is the perfect hairstyle for my character... thank you so much!!
Harpeia: "YES! I CAN DO THIS WITHOUT GETTING A PERM!" followed by "whoops I actually can't do this an hour before work every day". Thank you regardless. It'll do well at least as a special event idea.
Dee Skye,Vi: This style is beautiful!
Michelle Lettow: So how long does this last? I love how it looks and will definitely try it, is there any way you can “save” it and wear it the next day?
Hafsa Salman: My hair is naturally like this when I brush it out or after I blow dry it for an exaggerated look. I have always felt insecure with my hair. But now I love my hair Im happy that you made this .and you rocked the look!!!
Mary G: Love all your videos & i will be trying this technique on my hair which is similar to yours thanks you!
luvDemcheesepuffs: I love your hair tutorials! This hairstyle is so cute~
Diana Michaela Midday: love this look on you its very pretty I love 40s hairstyles and fashion .I notice that you mention the length of your hair a lot in this video ,depending on what part of the 1940's era you are referring long hair was actually considered very desirable and quite appropriate I believe it was the earlier half but this looks very convincing thanks for sharing this very helpful video

Aline Martinez: you are so pretty and simple i love that, such an inspiration
Dave Londoner: I think this hairstyle fits the best for your gorgeous face! i love your videos! Greeting from London!
KateandBree: For brush outs, you want a brush with some slip. You have a smoothing brush which is not helping your brush out. It helps smooth out the top, but not for brushing out your curls. Alternatively, you don't want a detangler like a Tangle Teezer as it has too much tooth and you'll never get out of the 80s poof stage (which is, as you have witnessed, a dreadful stage indeed.) Some slip is going to help merge your curls faster and not have them look like three curls (the fact you curled them the opposite way doesn't matter; they'd be more wavy over curly in a brush out. I've done this more than you know. XD) While you certainly do not need to go out and find yourself a Denman styling brush (because, bleh, who needs a designer brush), you need a brush with some slip (but tooth!) that will tackle the brush out with ease. My mom and I used to battle over a Conair brush because she loved that it brushed out her hair with ease and I loved how easy it brushed out my pin curl sets without ripping out my hair (with my thin, baby fine lupus hair...if it doesn't rip out my hair, I love it.) The brush is dead, so I haven't done sets for a while, but I'll see if I can't leave you a link to show you what to look for. https://www.walgreens.com/store/c/conair-brush-hair-brush-set/ID=prod6008121-product
littlenavybrat: When your hair is curled, it is about the same length as Lake, Hayworth, and Bacall's hair. Long hair was not unheard of then. Will try this. Thanks for the tips!
Superherostella: That´s so pretty! And it´s good to finally know how they got that look instead of guessing ´well probably a lot of curling´ :P
Erin B: Absolutely gorgeous!
Mallory Miller: It would have worked immediately if you brushed under instead, because brushing outside kills the curls. :) but it is very pretty.
mealsonwheels123: this looks so good!
Steph: It looks awesome!!!!❤❤

Hilha Deu Nueit: « It’s going to take a little bit more work for me » two little brushes later… its perfect
Anna M: I have hair of a similar length and like to wear the brushed out curls, but have another technique! What I do is allow my hair to air dry, then spritz with heat protectant and a little bit of water. Then, I twist it up into small foam twist rollers. After the rollers are in, I blow dry each roll for a few seconds each, then leave everything for about thirty minutes. After that, I take the rollers out and brush everything through!
