Hi everyone! I got my hair done last week my hairdresser, who I have been stalking (in a professional sense) for about 16 years, asked if she could style my hair in a kind of victory roll. I thought you might like to see the results:
I am wearing a thrifted cardigan and polyester dress |
I was very pleased with the results - I have tried Victory Rolls before but not with this kind of success. I think the original inspiration was Katy Perry:
Or something like this:
WOW, look at Rita Hayworth:
Definitely not inspired by this:
My hair is the one thing that I spend my money on - I may scrimp, save, thrift and scavenge for my clothes, shoes and accessories, but my hair gets the full treatment. I started dying my hair as a teenager, usually only semi permanent, and then advanced to permanent in my twenties when the evil curly greys started coming through. My hairdresser and I have a great relationship, she has known me for years (through various ups and downs) and we always have a good laugh while she is making me feel like a princess. For the record, my natural colour is dark brown and I have a naturally occuring white streak in the front which has got more prominent as I have aged...if only it was elegant as this:
Hope you are all having a good week :-)
Bye

ReplyDeleteYour hair looks amazing! I'm pretty hopeless with hair, but I wouldn't mind trying these rolls! The inspirations, even that mad bloke, are all divoon!
I never go to the hairdressers! I trim both mine and G's, and he henna's mine!!! We all need our vices/special treats...mine is plonk! XXX
Your victory rolls look great! I am hopeless with hair, never do anything with mine other than wash and dry it, and leave my lovely hairdresser to colour and cut it. I know my limitations! xxxxxx

ReplyDeleteI love the victory rolls! I've had them done in my hair before too :D I have to admit, I am the same as you, I ALWAYS spend money on my hair - usually without blinking an eyelid, its so worth it.
