 Retro style is always in. Fashion designers always refer to retro style
creating their collectionsbased on vintage images. The fashion elements
of the 80s of the previous century were inseveral seasons ago, and today
the older tendencies are demanded. So back to the 30s ofthe previous
century, the elements of hairdos, clothing are revived. Hairdo a-la 30s
is the ideal option for solemn events
as wedding party or functions, night parties and other occasions.
The epoch of
30s is the whole life of eccentricity and glamour. During the time after Great Depression
events, the fashion of 30s quickly changed in favor of femininity. Women took the
challenge to escape form androgynous style in hairdo and clothing, imitating
more feminine and exceptionally delicate images of alluring Hollywood
divas as Greta
Garbo and Joan Crawford. The Depression period committed to fashion
to be more affordable and today the epoch of 30s is known as the time of
elegant and delicate style in clothing and hairdo, either. Waves and locks
women modeled then became the most recognizable details of the time.
The most
distinguishing peculiarity of all the hairdo of 30s was heaps of locks when
gentle waves at the face line added special frivolous and extremely sexual
femininity. Such hairdos went well with the every day wear and with luxury dresses
the Hollywood celebrities used to wear to
appear on the red carpet. And they are still trendy, though complicated in modeling.
Any woman
can create the elegant hairdo a-la 30s at home without spending time and money
for beauty salons with the help of cold setting. Hair setting is done effortlessly
by fingers waving and the brush only, though you’d better ask someone to help
you do the right style. The major element of such a hairdo is soft and gentle
waves which can be straight enough that is placed across the parting of hair or
slanting at the angle of 45 degrees to the hair middle parting or crosscut. The
way the waves look depends on the taste and preference of a woman. Usually the
hair setting is done when hair is parted on the side, though it depends and
hair parted in the middle with waves on sides is not rare.
Once the hairdo
a-la 30s is done, it should be fixed with the styling products like strong
fixation gel which helps create clear and smooth waves. The hairdo is done to
clean and wet hair, when the gel is applied first and then waves are set.
Simple straight
waves is the plainest type of the hairdo a-la 30s which are set in several
centimeters off the parting. With the purpose to create the wave a plain wooden
comb is needed which serves as the «stencil» for the wave forming. The comb is inserted
into the hair straightly athwart to the head and then sharply shifted to the
side. As a result, the shifted strand of hair form the clear wave which should
be neatly placed and fixed. Therefore, shifting the comb gradually lower the
hair, we form the wavy setting.
The final
stage of this hairdo a-la 30s is the through drying of the setting. To avoid the
clear waves of the hairdo, the strands should be fixed with hair clips or use
the hair net otherwise the air flow will destroy the hairdo formed with such an
effort. To keep the hairdo for longer time, such elegant and smooth, use hair
spry of strong fixation.
The hairdo
a-la 30s goes well with short-haired and long-haired women, though the latter
need to fasten the hair with clips to form the waves and fix them properly. The
waves will be formed looser and softer. The way waves look creates the image
different from woman to woman. The 1930s also saw the advent of the permanent
wave, made either with ammonia or with a curling iron which are easier to
handle and women spend far little time for the hairdo.
There is
still a little nuance to remember. The 30s hairdo does not go with every face
type, but it looks perfect when a woman has a delicate triangle-shaped face
with sharp and clear features. Then the image is perfect and elegant.
