You might actually be the perfect woman!! Well done!! New subscriber here and I love the 40's/50's and I think you do an amazing job in all your videos 🥰🥰❤❤
I'm also a new subby. Waiting for my setting lotion to come tomorrow from Amazon and just bought some new bobby pins. Hoping that I get it SOMEWHERE near your pretty curls! (I have naturally straight hair) I've always wanted to dress and live a 40's - 50's lifestyle and you have inspired me so much!
@@nickk5263 Thank you so much! :)
@@painpixieThank you for subscribing!
@@SageLilleyman Hopefully I can give you a show sometime this weekend! *fingers crossed* 😉
Ohhhh....now I understand why bobby pins come in packs of 1,000. 😊
And you end up with 3. Exactly 3. 😉
And you lose all of them
@@painpixie LMAO
@@painpixie you beat to the punch but its sooo true.
I had to borrow some from my Mother to try this😅
I see so many tutorials involving backcombing, tons of spray, endless sculpting, and creating “dents”. If pincurling and brushing out is done correctly, you don’t need all that!!! Yours looks so soft and natural, and way more true to the 40’s era
Thank you so much! xx
@Tara Lucas I think that really depends on someone's hair. I have coily (as in an actual afro hair) hair that needs to have tons of hair spray and duckbill clips to help define and set the waves in my hair. I don't think it's a matter or someone doing it right, rather than what works best for individuals hair. For instance if someone has coarse hair (as in large hair strands) then once their hair is set and holds the style, they probably won't need tons of hair spray and back combing. My hair doesn't need the back combing because it is voluminous enough but it struggles to hold onto curls well, that are not my natural coils.
Furthermore the reason why the poster of this video doesn't need to do all those additional steps is because her hair curls easily, and she has a natural gentle wave to her hair as well. All those features make it very easy for her to have her hair curl, and have those curls stay once she starts molding them.
As a black woman with natural hair, I find that typically even though we have very curly or even coily hair we can't brush our curls out as much. Whereas I've noticed women with naturally straight hair tend to spend way more time with their brush outs because they generally have to roll their curls tighter to their heads, or just take slightly smaller sections so that they can still have waves and curls with their hair.
Also I want to say that this wonderful woman who created this video has a fantastic point indeed, please do this style on damp hair. Hair does not need to be sopping wet for this to work.
Trouble is, we don’t all have her volume of hair. If I were to roll the same number of pin curls she rolls here, my sections would be the size of match sticks, and the result of the comb out would be a 1980s perm shag. So some of us do need to cheat. I am having all the trouble in the world with comb outs just because of my lack of volume. Backcombing helps a lot, and so do alternative rolling patterns. Also, I do standing pin curls all around for volume, and I do sleep on them, and that also helps. They do end up squished, but they are fluffier than flat pin curls because the curl is not gathered in a bunch.
Bottom line, I have the same preferences as you, I don’t like product and I like touchable hair, but since I am not genetically equipped, I have to make do with the extra steps and product. I wish there were a fine haired miss on here showing the fine haired minority how to do 1950s styles adapted to our hair. Fine haired ladies existed back then too, and they still styled, so there has got to be alternatives.
@@dawnssful I have the opposite of your hair, fine and straight, and I too switch the pin curl clips and the bobby pins out for duck bill clips, depending. They work great for me, they don’t leave any more of a dent than pin curl clips and less of a dent than bobby pins (fine hair dents a lot). Also, my hair is fragile given it is fine, and duck bill clips insert more straightforward and don’t get caught like other clips and pins so there is less damage when removing them. They also hold in place better because they are longer. I wonder why people don’t use them more.
@@Gomba13 I use the pin curl clips when I am pin curling my hair, but I use the duckbill clips to hold the waves in place once I start the brush out process. Believe it or not my hair is actually fine and delicate like your hair, but it is coily and not straight. I do think that you make a great point in mentioning that fine hair can dent easily, my hair most definitely does as well. When you use duck bill clips do you use them hold multiple pin curls in place?
I genuinely think this is the first vintage hair tutorial I've watched where the whole process didn't come across as overwhelming and daunting to me. You really made it simple to watch, follow and now I'm super excited to try this tonight! Thank you!
Aww I’m so glad you found it easy to follow! Thanks so much! 💕
how did it turn out?
My aunt used to put her hair up in pincurls all the time. She, like me, had poker straight hair, but it was the style ... she would always tell me, when I was struggling to set my hair, that "Beauty must suffer!" We would always laugh! Thanks for bringing back such wonderful memories!
Aw, what a lovely memory of your Aunt! Thank you so much for sharing
Absolutely Gorgeous, I thank ALL the young ladies out there that choose to keep these vintage styles alive , THANK YOU from us baby boomers :-) You ladies look Fabulous !!!!
Unrelated, but you are soo beautiful
Ok...I'm of the era of Bobby pins, curlers, and hair dryers.
For fun I'm going to pin curl tonight.
I absolutely love the memories you bring to me of the 50's
I tried this and I am obsessed! I've always loved vintage hair but I thought it was really difficult to do. I was also worried it wouldn't work well with my hair type. I have very fine thin straight hair. But this gave me the volume I've always wanted! I'm very happy!!! Thank you for this tutorial ♡♡♡♡
So very vintage-y...until the cell phone goes off! Haha!
hahaha I know!!
Definitely going to try this out. I needed a hairstyle to go with my 1940s dress I’ve been sewing 😄💕
Fun! What pattern are you using?
1940s style dresses are so lovely.
@@theblissfullone I totally agree
I officially have serious hair envy!!! 😅
Ive tried this several times & end up looking like a poodle, i wish i could master it somehow! Such a gorgeous hairstyle & suits you beautifully
You could be making too small curls. I use sponge rollers. It starts out poodley, but just keep brushing it into submission.
@@24ntk i think you’re right. Thanks for the advice, i’ll look into sponge rollers x
If your hair is layered that could be the problem also, the best hair cut is a u shaped bob. Or long pageboy.
Thank you so much! :) If you make larger pin curls it shouldn't turn out like a poodle at all, they should be large soft curls!
@@24ntk but what about when you brush it into submission and your hair just goes flat. There is poodle, and flat. No in between for me.
Finally! A vintage hair tutorial without too much gels, hair spray, and other stuff! Will definitely do this to style my long, wavy quarantine hair 😊
I have longer hair and I tried this and I got Judy garland. And it looks gorgeous thanks for the video.
THANK YOU! I am a total beginner when it comes to styling hair (and doing makeup), but I wanted to start completing my vintage look with the proper hairdo! I will be trying this out tonight and updating tomorrow.
Edit: Just finished doing all the curls. It’s not bad for my first time (especially since it’s my first time doing hair EVER) but it’s definitely looking rough. Hopefully it turns out well.
Edit: Finished brushing it out, and it’s amazing! Definitely could use improvement on my end, but great for my first time.
I would love to see a video of you shopping for the vintage clothing and house decor
Sage, I've been a subscriber for about a month. Even though I usually don't comment on videos, I want to say I am really glad I found your channel by accident. You are a pretty lady with a lovely voice and very enthusiastic about the subjects you like. When I watch your videos I feel like time traveling to a fun and fancy age. Thank you for cheering my weekend up.
Aww you have warmed my heart! Thank you so so much! xx
Oh my goodness, we really need to bring this back into style!!!
Please do a vintage morning skincare (self-care) video. And before bed too. 💜
So glad you showed us how it's done, my grandma always pin-curled our hair, but I didn't know how to do it myself.
I've been trying and failing at 40s hair for 3 weeks using foam rollers. I'll definitely give this a go
Me too my hair is too short for rollers
Thank you Sage!! This has to be my most favorite hairstyle I have ever done. I have always loved the 1950’s hair but I never knew how to do the hairstyles. But I tried pin curls with your tutorial and it worked so well! It looks like a 1950’s hairstyle! My pin curls were a bit messy when I was first pinning them up but it worked the next day! ❤❤
Wow you have the most amazing hair, mine is so thin and fine the second I would brush it the curls would disapear 😥💖
I love that the most beautiful styles are basically free if you are willing to put in some time.
I have very thick curly hair, I really love vintage hairstyles! I just hope that if I try this it’ll work with my hair type.
My granny used to roll my hair on strips of brown paper bag & the curls were beautiful!
My mom did this to me and my two sisters when I was a child.
Thank you for all the wholesome cheerful content!
I'm so glad you enjoy it! :)
I just love the cheerfulness of this tutorial! ☺️ It's a rather rare thing to find, it seems. Most try to impress and use affectations; she just shares and smiles.
I wish I had a vintage brush such as yours! I do have a denman that I love for pincurls though.
Oh, Denmans are great!!
This is giving me horror flash backs of when I used to try and pin curl my hair 😳 My hair hates anything curl related and refuses to look good if I try to curl it. I'm talking frizzy poodle hair lol. Yours look so good!
My parents were married in 1954. My Dad gave a hair brush, with a matching mirror, to my Mom one year for Christmas when they were first married. It is the same style, and almost identical, to the hair brush you are using : )
Really? How old are they?
@@user_5744 They are now both dead, but were married for 63 years.
@@JillWhitcomb1966 Im sure they are now in a better place!
Childhood memories, Saturday night pin curls for Sunday morning go to church , hair style .
Thank you for posting these videos. I'm a huge fan of 1940s style
I remember my mom pincurling her hair! I still do now and then. Great styling.
Gorgeous! I’m itching to try this out again this coming weekend. Practice, practice. Thank you for the more in depth tutorial!
You are so welcome! xx
This is so helpful and lovely, thank you! I can't wait to try this
Thank you, this is by far the most understandable 50s hair tutorial that I have seen! 😍
I'm so glad it has helped!! 😊
Perfect!! Loved this! It makes me think I could even give it a try! I guess I'd have to cut my hair first. You are a lovely person! Your channel will continue to grow!
You make this look vert simple! Thank you for sharing the brushing technique, too!
I have naturally curly hair, which I love but it can be much harder to figure out vintage hairstyling. I might give this a go and see what happens! It seems so simple compared to other videos where you need a ton of products.
So so glad this came up in my recommended 😍 your hair looks GORGEOUS! I tried pin curling just my bangs and they came out great 😁
Thank you for this video! This is the first tutorial I've seen without products. I am 100% going to try this out!
Thank you so much for this video! I recently got a bad haircut and I'm lost as to what to do with it, so I've been experimenting with it more lately, trying to find the optimal way until it grows out. I absolutely love vintage hairstyles but I always felt intimidated by them until I watched your video which made it look doable. A lot of women who did similar tutorials also had perfectly bleached hair and looked nothing like mine, so it was so nice seeing someone with brown hair like mine.
I'm sitting with the pin curls on my head right now. I have no idea if it'll turn out any good on me in the morning, but at least I tried it after so many years of thinking about it! Huge thank you
I was set with my pins, about to pincurl when I started watching! Perfect! Hooray universe!
Yayyyy! Your hair is so perfect (especially in the 1960's workout where it withstood A LOT) and I'm still practicing. Good tips.
Thanks! xx
Omg girl 😱the best tutorial ever for this look I been looking for this exact hair look 👀 thank you ❤️your the best
Thank you! I will be watching and trying this. You explain it so clearly ❤
Thank you for this. I just love the pin curl look on you. Definitely going to do this, especially love the comb on the side. 💕
You are so welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! xx
I am too getting fascinated to this beautiful hairstyle.. Subscribed today 👍
Thank you so much for subscribing! xx
Your hair is so bouncey and shiny!!! 💖💖💖
Thank you! :)
I come back here the day before every big party I attend. Some day I hope to do it as beautifully as you! Ive been quite happy with mine, too, so thank you so much for explaining it so well!
You're continuously helping me learn my favourite look with just this video ❤
I tried this with no experience (just did my front fringe bangs) and I really messed up the first time, but it worked great! I couldn't get the tips to roll at first but the second time I used both hands to force the tips in a constant inward spiral, and that helped me get them started. Thank you!!
I’m in love with the 40s and 50s
This vid should be captioned (or tagged) with "pin curls vs foam rollers". Was looking for that specifically and didn't find anything and stumbled onto this one looking at other styles. Happy to have found that gem showing how easy brushing and guiding is with pincurls.
The older lovely styles look beautiful on you. Always an informative and interesting video.
Your hair looks lovely. Thanks for showing us how to do this. Have a great day. 🙋🏼
I loved your demonstration. I remember when my mother did that to my hair.❤
So pleased this actually worked thanks for the tutorial ❤
I am AMAZED by this video Sage! Thank you so much for making it. The pincurl hairstyles were soooooooo beautiful, and I can see why. So much attention to detail and patience is required. You look beautiful!
Thank you so much!
I love your videos, and your personality is so likeable!! Keep up the hard work ❤️
Thank you so much!!
You are so sweet and lovely Sage!!
your videos are wonderful, so real and beautifully done! i feel very Blessed to have come across your channel...brings much joy to my day!
Thank you so much!❤❤❤
Aww thank you so so much
As usual, simple and gorgeous.
Beautiful! You made the process seem so doable I'm definitely trying it tonight!🎉❤
I've never been the greatest hairstylist, but I love anything vintage and am so wanting to try this! Pin curling certainly looks a little daunting, but the results look even more worth it. I've been trying to pick up old-fashioned routines, and this is my next one. All I need is a side hair comb and I'll be set to try it out. Glad I found this channel; it'll be nice to go over all of your videos!
Gracias!!! Love this channel bc is sooo original & different 🎉🎉🎉❤
Just beautiful!!!!!’ Thank you for posting!
I’m so excited to trie this! I’m sat here in my red silk nightgown waiting for my hair to dry so I can start the pins curls 😂
This totally worked for me! Thank you!! I was so discouraged after never getting the look I desired with foam rollers. This is sooooo much better!
definitely starting to embrace my vintage style more and more this is very helpful
The level of satisfaction that I get just by watching how the hair,without any special tools, can be done is just...🥰🔥🔥👍nature gave it all ♥️♥️🙏
THANK YOU SO MUCH! My daughter & I were researching how to do her hair for her upcoming role in Radium Girls, & we found your video. It took maybe 20 minutes for me to do last night, & her hair this morning is absolutely gorgeous & spot on! We have never gotten successful curls in her hair. It’s so thick & straight, but this worked like crazy. Btw, your finished product is beautiful!
😃
This looks very doable and you are just lovely! Can’t wait to try it!
THANK YOU IT LOOKS SO YUMMY
You make it look SO easy!!
Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial! Btw, your hair is so healthy and beautiful!
So adorable. Im going to try this tonight Thank You!
This looks adorable, and so pretty.
Been pin curling for about a year. Life changing!!!!
Love it! Definitely going to try it.
You are really a vintage sweetheart😍 The curls look really great, I think I have to try the pin curls after all . I always use sponge rollers but the curls are mostly a little bit to tight as you said and the curls a little bit harder to brush out
Thank you so much! Yes, pin curling is definitely worth trying out! xx
This might be my favorite vintage hairstyle 🤩
Gah you make it look so easy! I’ve been avoiding pin curls like the plague just because they seem so difficult, but foam rollers aren’t giving me the results I want. I’m gonna give these a shot, I hope they work for me! :)
I can't stop looking at your videos 💕
So beautiful!!! Love it! 😍
I was just about to set my hair in foam rollers tonight but I'll try this instead. Thank you!
You have such beautiful hair.
I remember my mom doing pin curls or me and my sisters hair when we were little.❤
So nice to meet you, Sage, you are such a delight and a breath of fresh air! You're beautiful inside and out! Since I'm a new subscriber, I must catch up on all your wonderful videos especially those with James and your chickens! LOL! I don't know if you've already mentioned this, but during the '50s and to this very day, using a satin or silk pillowcase can help keep your hairstyle in place even while you are tossing and turning throughout the night. Also, do you have any videos showing the two of you socializing with friends in your vintage home? That would be really cool! Keep up the great work, Sage! You're a keeper!
Cute cute CUTE! I'm definitely trying this. 😍
I’m in love with this hairstyle 😍😍 you look stunning 🥺❤️
My great grandma and grandma all did there's with rags. I love your way of doing your curls, they look so nice. I'm definitely trying this out soon 😄
I absolutely adore your channel!! Congratulations 🎊 on your channel 🥰
Congratulations on your subscribers!! That's fantastic!! I'm so excited to watch this video, I love hair tutorials 🥰 you seem like the sweetest person and I hope you keep growing!! Xx
Aw thank you so so much!! xoxo
Have you run across the scarf twist trick? I don’t know how to explain it, but instead of bobby pins you wrap your hair around a scarf, the results are nearly identical. I’ve been enjoying your channel and when I did the scarf curl trick and brushed my hair out the next day I thought, “oh my hair looks like Sage‘s!” 😂 your videos have influenced my Homemaking skills with some 1950’s charm😉❤️
Aw thanks so much for commenting!
I don't know if you mean banana curls. My mom and grandma would wrap sections of our hair around strips of cut up sheets tying them at the end. We had wonderful spiral curls for church.
Sage Lilleyman I suppose you could use a bath robe tie, I just use a large scarf that I’ve rolled into a long thin... rope like thing? I saw it on CZcams but I can’t remember where 😂 But yes, your videos are so charming and refreshing ☺️❤️
Lili sorry I thought my comment to Sage went to you too. Clearly I don’t understand youtube 😂 I don’t think it’s like what you described? Although that sounds really cool! I just found a video a gal using one long scarf and wrapping her hair around it so it’s around your head and tied at the top. Not sure if that makes sense. You could prob just type in scarf curls or something and find a lot of vids on it. I’d like to try Sages bobby pin up for a more vintage look though!:)
Stunning! Also love the matching lipstick!
It’s sooooo gorgeous!!! I wanna try!!
Wooooow i didn't know that curl method! I'm going to try it right away thank youu
Love this going to try it right away😍😍
I love how easy your tutorials are and don't use a lot of products to do your hair💛💛 always thought that curls with bobby pins become more fluffy, the work that gives is worth💐💐
Glad you like them, thanks so much!
Beautifully done💐
This video is bringing back memories of my Mother ❤
I needed this!!!! thank you so much💘
