hello everyone and welcome back to my
channel so today's video is all about
the 1920s finger wave Bob I have a
little tutorial today showing you how to
get this Bob you can do it without the
headband and without the makeup and just
give yourself an awesome bob for a night
out or if you want it for a costume then
add the headband and you're good to go
so if you want to get this 1920s finger
wave faux bob then just keep watching ok
so here we are
straight hair make sure your hair is
parted deeply to the side if you have a
center part you might want to fix that
because it just looks better with kind
of a over cross part now I'm just gonna
section off my hair above my ears we're
gonna be working in sections here so
just take half of your hair up and get
it out of the way so I just clip that up
because we'll be working with that later
now the remaining hair is gonna be
hidden so I divide it into two and now
I'm gonna take each section and braid it
just a normal braid it doesn't matter
what it looks like because again this is
the hair that is hiding underneath our
finger wave bob perfect then we're just
dancing as we're braiding and then you
pin that up to your head so you want to
kind of wrap it around so it lies flat
against your head and it's almost like
you're doing this to put a wig on
so you want to lay flat so that we can
put all their hair on kind of like
covering it up so again just a couple
pins laying it flat pinning it up so
this is what it looks like because I
have so much hair I don't want to do
this faux bob using all of my hair so
then let the rest of your hair go and I
actually realized that I still had too
much hair so this will depend on how
thick or long your hair is if it's extra
thick and extra long definitely hide in
a braid as much as you can because you
really want that length and that
fullness to be gone and to be hidden in
order to give it a faux bob effect so
then again just pinning this to my head
so that it lays nice and flat with
rest of the braids perfect now it still
looks like I have so much hair left
taking a one inch curling wand I'm
taking one-inch sections of hair and I'm
kind of working backwards in rows so
what you're gonna do is curl the hair
towards your face okay so I'm putting
the curling iron in front of the piece
of hair and then wrapping the hair
towards the curling iron as you can see
here hold it for as long as a Cronauer
needs and then release it make sure to
hold the curl in your hand this is what
pin curls are so you take these pin curl
clips you can get anywhere any like
Walmart drugstore and you pin it up so
what this does it has allows the curl to
cool and it leaves it with the bounciest
tightest curl possible so again I'm
working backwards as if I have like a
row directly down the center of my head
putting the curling iron in front of
that piece of hair and rolling it
forward so curling it forwards you want
to make sure the hair also lies nice and
flat on the curling iron and it's not
bunching up so try to line it smoothly
across the entire barrel and flat across
the entire barrel again release it hold
it in your hands and then clip it back
perfect and just keep doing that so I'm
gonna show you again here one-inch piece
curling iron in front of the hair wrap
it towards oh I lost grip on this one
and the hair nice lies nice and flat and
then just release it hold in your hand
and then put in the pin curl clip now
into the second row instead of doing
like vertical rows we're still kind of
doing like across my head as you'll be
able to see in a second so again forward
so curling iron in front of the piece of
hair and wrapping the hair towards the
cronin or towards your face same thing
here but now again just clipping that
piece of hair in with the pink lips
today you just flat metal cliffs perfect
and then again just keep doing that so
taking one-inch section holding it up
rolling it forwards you've probably seen
tons of pictures of old Hollywood stars
with their hair and pin curls like this
so you just do the remaining hair on to
the other side we're gonna do this a
tiny bit different taking again a same
inch of hair again going back to that
back row we're gonna take it but this
time we're gonna put the curling iron
behind the head and roll it away from
the face what this does is that the S
Curl shape that we're gonna be making
will all be going around in the same
direction or on your entire head so it's
like all clockwise or all
counterclockwise whichever way you're
looking at it so just make sure you do
one side of your face towards your face
and one side of your head away from your
face if that makes any sense at all and
as you can see here you can make a
little mistakes this one wasn't as
tightly curled so I just suggested it
rolled it up and pinned it back again
same thing just working backwards
towards the back of the head in rows
c'est la vie
and is finishing up so here is the final
look all of the beautiful pin curls so
you want to let this sit do your makeup
whatever let it sit for a good half an
hour to let the coolest curls completely
cool when they're cool to touch just
release all of the pins and this is what
you're left with
so again leaves them in as long as you
possibly can for a good half an hour my
reaction to how curly these curls are
I'm laughing it's so funny they're so
curly alright so everything is out I am
just going to run through these curls
with my fingers so you just want to
break these curls up because we do not
actually want Shirley Temple curls so
yes just breaking them all up as the
first step then going in with a soft
bristled brush I'm just going to slowly
and
gently brush out the curls even more
because we want them to be soft and
naturally create that S shape that we're
going to go work with then I'm taking a
wide toothed comb and now we're gonna go
in to create that S shape with the curls
so you kind of just wiggle your comb
through it and your hair will create
that curl kind of naturally because
we've curled it in already so the first
pin clip I'm gonna put in it's gonna go
away from my face and then you just
manipulate the hair and with the comb
and kind of see where the next shape
would be and you can see my hair just
kind of curls forward right away so that
is where it wants to go and then you
just push up the hair and stick in
another pin clip as well so there we go
so one clip goes behind the back of your
head and the other one faces towards
your face then we're kind of gonna do
like two layers it's mostly just like
the big front section that we want to
look like this the back can kind of just
be curly but again I'm doing the same
thing on this side as well
there we go we're just manipulating
these curls and we're kind of setting
them in this shape so all you do is
again push your hand up with the curl
and you can see it going in the opposite
direction there go so now we have that S
shape so again you just brush through
with the comb and put those clips in
accordingly kind of where the hair wants
to go to create that S shape so one clip
forwards and one clip backwards and
repeat that process tada
same thing on the other side so I'm just
kind of brushing through to kind of see
which direction my hair wants to go
leave it behind and then just pushing
that hair and manipulating that hair
forwards there we go and then I'm gonna
clip it there as you can see then
pushing it backwards and there's a
perfect s shape as you can see me do
tada
let that sit for a good 15 minutes
and then take them out very very gently
so there we go I'm just taking it out
the clips nothing really crazy to see
here perfect then I just take a comb in
case anything kind of sprung up or got
stuck in the clip just to smooth
everything out there we go see
everything is bouncing right back into
that s shape because we've set them like
that just finessing my little baby hairs
so annoying perfect now we're gonna work
on the bob part of it so we have the
curls now we need to make it look like
it's a short bob so I pull a section
down and I hold one piece with my
fingers and then I tease up the top of
it then the back piece is actually gonna
cover I so I kind of like as you can see
you limited again brush upwards to
cheez-it I still have one piece that's
kind of straight in my fingers and I use
this and I roll it under and I clip it
in with bobby pins into the braids so
here I go again I take a section pull it
down brush up just the ends fold it
under there we go so kind of pushing it
back because you want it to go over all
the braids you had in the back of your
hair cover them and then fold under so
the rest of your hair will kind of fall
down on top and if you have any layers
they'll fall nicely but all of the
longest pieces are getting tucked in
underneath so you can see me do it again
here teasing it up and pushing that long
piece underneath and clipping it up and
in so there we go now I'm just gonna
finesse the front part here I want it to
mean asymmetrical Bob so I'm just gonna
give this a little volume so I'm just
putting a bobby pin kind of pinning it
backwards so that the hair doesn't fall
completely in my face then I'm also
gonna take a pin and hide it to kind of
accentuate the s curl around my forehead
voila so that is kind of it for the
asymmetrical bob you can play with
certain pieces
nice coat of hairspray and then you do
want to tease those last two pieces
we're not gonna be tucking them under
because we want this piece long but
again if your hair is longer you
probably do have to tuck it so just kind
of based on how it layered your hair is
but I'm just spraying those ends up so
that it is a really bouncy bob I've
already done the same thing on the other
side I just kept the pin in them the
pins in them and then this is what the
other side looks like it is all curled
under and pinned under but I'm just
gonna kind of finesse some little baby
pieces that are sticking out and there
we go so kind of just play with it look
at that big curl on that side and that
was the finished look thank you guys so
