Prom& Bridal Hair Updo (1960S Pin-Up Style-Inspired) : Special Occasion Hairstyles

Hi I'm summer Spence, I'm a cosmetologist, and I am here at the wedding cottage Hawaii. I'M going to show you how to do a prom or Bridal up do with the 1960s inspiration for this style, you're going to use a round brush with a boar bristle, a comb with a wide toothed, rubberband, hair spray, bobby pins, hot rollers and a curling iron. In 1960, that was all about volumes. So to achieve that, look, we're gon na put the hot rollers on top of the hair. When you roll up each roller, you roll it right on to the base of that hair and that's going to give you the maximum volume. So I'm just concentrating on the top section of the hair, with the hot rollers and I've curled, the bottom section, with a very hot curling iron, to give it a nice wave. But each section spray as you unroll the roller. Now that we have the curls out and we've sprayed section, this back crown section, smoothing it out we're going to back home just under here and then let that I'll take the next section forward and part out the bangs and leave those hanging forward and then we're Gon na take this back and brush this into a ponytail on top of the head smooth on top of the head, the best you can right before you put the rubber band in once, you have your hair pulled back into a ponytail, then you're, going to section That ponytail in half and back home and you're going to back home a lot and then leave that forward and do that again. So, as you can see, we have a lot of volume. So now that we have the whole ponytail has lots of back combing in it. Then we're going to begin to smooth it pulling all of the hair back, leaving all of this back combed under here now being careful to not brush out the back coming, but just smoothing the top layer once you've, smooth the top layer spray and then still holding On to the point, I'll you're gon na bring that forward and begin to, pin and you're gon na want to pin in a semicircle. So once you've pinned and pulled back - and you want to spray and continue to smooth but be very careful when you smooth that you don't ruin the shape that you've created with the backcombing. I took the very tips of the ponytail and I pinned it just to keep it back in place now, taking the fringe we're gon na do the same thing: we're back combing. We have the fullness, not spray and then smooth just like you did the ponytail being careful when you smooth to leave the back combing as the base. So I'm a spray taking this section of the bangs and twisting it back. I'M going to very carefully go underneath where that ponytail is and pin that I'm Criss crossing over that bobby pin to hold it into place and then smooth any flyaways. A nice polished look. So the same goes for the hair on the bottom. That'S left out we're going to backcomb and create a very full look so combing this section that you're gon na back home and going underneath and then moving around the hair you'll do the same thing: spray it and then smooth. Just like you did the other sections. The sixties, it's all about big hair, so have fun with it. I'M summer Spence - and I just showed you a formal prom or Bridal updo with the 1960s inspiration you
