Product Description
Originally published in 1946, this rare book shows you how to make 22 classic styles. Chapters include Hairshaping, The Finger Wave, The Foundation Curl, Affinity to Curls and Waves, Basic Style Treatment and Combing/Dressing. For those interested mainly in recreating the classic looks, you'll learn how to create fantastic 1940s styles using detailed instructions and over 60 illustrations for the forward curl, reverse curl, half wave, stand-up curl, and how to comb out the curls. The author then presents 22 styles using the 4 curls in simple, easy-to-understand language. If you're interested in more detailed aspects of 1940s hairdressing, the Hairshaping chapter includes 37 pages with illustrations on hair sectioning, relative length, lines of operation, razor tapering, shaping a strand, shaping different sections of hair, tailored neckline, controlling the hair, progressive length, trimming, controlling tools used, the tangent, vignette of neckline, and much more. Finger waving is covered in detail -- parts of a wave, position of fingers, shadowing the ridge, forming the ridge, shifting the fingers, locking the corners, working around the crown, nature of the swirl, and more -- are all covered in both text instructions and are completely illustrated with over 60 line drawings. Sample hairstyles and illustration images are shown at the top of this page. ==== FOR MORE FANTASTIC 1940s HAIRSTYLING BOOKS please see Creative Hairshaping and Hairstyling You Can Do, How to Create 1940s Hairstyles -- Instructions and Illustrations for 17 Swing Era Styles, and Creative Hair Styling -- 1940s Swirls, Curls and Water Waving Techniques.
