How To Do Rosie The Riveter Hair For Long Hair : Updos & More

Hi I'm T Cooper, I'm in New York, City, makeup artist, hair stylist and co-founder of beauty and grooming company Metro. Look today we're gon na talk about how to do a Rosie, the Riveter hairstyle for a long hair. As you can see, my model today has SuperDuper long hair. She was actually saying today that she didn't realize how long her hair had gotten we're gon na cheat this style, because, typically it's always curled up, but since her hair is really long, it's gon na take forever to curl all of it. So she's got layers in the front, so we curled this part really really tightly and we're just gon na smooth it on over and we're gon na go on with some hairspray. Now, if you know anything about Rosie the Riveter, she wears her little scarf and she does this right. So I'm gon na put this out the way and I've got a scarf. My scarf is huge, but what I'm gon na do is I'm gon na? Take this huge scarf and I'm gon na fold it in half one more time to make it not so huge, so we're gon na go in and before I do the scarf I'm going to put her hair into a ponytail, and for this I'm gon na use A bungee and I'm gon na go up a little bit higher and this does not need to be the neatest ponytail in the world because honestly, you're not gon na see it so I'm just gon na throw it into a ponytail. You see it's really not that high! It'S not that perfect! I'M not brushing it because you're not gon na see any of this, and I'm all about not exerting too much effort unnecessarily. So now we're just gon na put it in a little bun right here. I'M gon na pin it into place. I'M gon na pin it from both sides, even though it's gon na be in a scarf. We still want to make sure that this is gon na, be nice and secure, but honestly you really don't have to, but I'm just doing it for safekeeping. So now I'm gon na go in with my pre-folded scarf and it's I'm using a soaked one. Typically, you use cotton, but silk is what I had love silk and I'm gon na tie a little knot right here. But since it's a little bit slippery, I'm gon na go in with my bobby pins and I'm just gon na pin the scarf to her head. So that it doesn't move, this is totally optional. If you have a cotton scarf, you might not need to do this, but if you have silk like me, you may need to so then I'm gon na gather the rest of the hair. I'M going to open the knot, that's why I tied it kind of loose so that I can throw this in here and now. I'M gon na make a knot now it'll be a tight knot and just like pull it, adjust it tug at it. However, you want - and this is what it looks like from the side and we've got our rosy - the river there with long hair, I'm tee Cooper and thank you for watching bye.
