10 Retro Hairstyles That Are Hot Right NowThe Marilyn Monroe pin curls and Brigitte Bardot blowout are back. See how to give a chic update to these retro hairstyles now |
Long, Bardot-esque waves Philip B. says these voluminous waves are flattering for all women — but especially for more petite types, which he says almost need big hair. "You need that volume and height at the crown to balance a small frame. It's a very sexy look."
Keep it modern: "Make sure your hair doesn't look sprayed. Use hot rollers and some dry shampoo at the crown to gently pump up the hair instead of teasing it. The touchable texture is the modern upgrade of this Brigitte Bardot blowout," says Philip B.
How to: The trick with this style is to use dry shampoo. Curl your hair with hot rollers. Then use the dry shampoo at the crown for lift and to make the style more manageable. Finish with a touch of hairspray for soft, touchable hold.

Number 11 isn't a finger wave , it is a pin curl set.
