The styles of the 1920s and 1930s just keep on showing up in hair and clothing fashions. The interest in blunt bobs, strong fringes and soft curls and sculpted finger waves continues to be fueled by the recent movie version of The Great Gatsy.
Stylist, salon owner and NAHA finalist Sherri Jessee created her latest style collection from these lovely retro influences.
Get the look:
For this iconic platinum blonde, apply 10N Pravana ChromaSilk Crème hair color and 30 volume developer to re-growth.
Apply your favorite volumizing mousse and blow dry. Wrap hair on a double barreled iron. Pin each section and allow to cool.
To create the signature 1920s full bang, clip on a human hair fringe and cut bluntly to desired length. Gently separate the curls with a wide-toothed comb and spray to hold the shape.
Watch the video to see Sherri Jessee's complete collection.
