Help me find hairstyles that are very '40s-esque

I think I want an updo, but one that isn't high on my head. Somewhat lower down towards the nape of my neck, but not too plain. I love the look of a lot of the women of the 1940s, and want something that looks like it's from the era. This is my dress and her hair is low like I want it, but not the style I want.

Please help me!

Ashley Judd has worn her hair in 30s & 40s styles a lot - I don't have any pics but I'm sure u could find them online.

There is a book out called 1940's Hairstyles by Daniela Turudich. You can probably look inside at amazon.com/

Melani, I haven't looked at them yet, but you were my inspiration! I saw your pics from before your honeymoon, and couldn't find anything like it. I told Jennifer that I wanted that sort of 40s glamour and sophisticated elegance like you had, but not the same style. Thank you!!

I know, that's why I was so excited to be able to tell her what I wanted - I knew she did it for you!

Yay.... making the world more stylish one bride at a time

Jenn must have been happy to hear that her work was appreciated... As good as she is, she is still quite humble.

She is, and she's sooooo cute!

I'm having trouble uploading more than one pic at a time, even on *my* Mac. Bleh.

Jann, mac pics won't post here...even when you use graphic Converter... that's why all mine are through shutterfly....FM me if you need help

No, I meant uploading to Shutterfly! Maybe the jpegs are too big and it's taking too long.

Thanks! I saw the Lazaro that it's a knockoff of and actually like this one better.

I love how that works out.


I tried on the Vera Wang & looked awful in it...... The maggie sotero made me look like a princess

what about googling movies from that time and going to images. maybe try audrey hepburn, grace kelly, and other stars of that time and look at their pictures.

Melani-

Can I post a pic of your pretty hair?


Let me know if you want me to take it down or put up a different one. I saved it from Shutterfly & posted it from my pc.

Thanks! Melani's hair was actually my inspiration when I went for my hair and makeup trial. Jennifer did Melani's hair and now she's doing mine. Thanks so much!
