How To Pin Curl Your Hair Like in the 1950s

 In this video, this woman starts explaining firm rollers are more for if you want lots of waves and the curls are tight.  The pin curls are more for those who want lose curls and smoother on top and lots of rolls at the bottom. To have the hairstyles just like women in the 50's, you will need lots of bobby pins or a pin curling hair clip and the more you have of these the better.  You will also need a comb, a spray bottle of water, and a hairbrush.  It is recommended you wash your hair and let it dry somewhat so it will hold longer in your hair until the next time you choose to wash it.  Next, you take a small strand of hair and you turn it inwards so it makes a circle. You continue this until the circle bunch of hair is to your scalp and pin it in this position.  Once you are doing the curls throughout your head make sure the curls are facing the front, which is towards your head and not away from your head.  One thing that is crucial is that you do ...

1950 Home Rules They Followed

Many people in the 1950's lived simply and it is what most of us would want in the modern world of 2021.  Everyone had a routine that they followed such as making our beds when you woke up, take a bath, cook breakfast, etc.  Once in a while they would change up their routine to have a variety and not to get bored but for the most part they never strayed away from their routines.  This was true, especially those with children. They always said that kids need stability and a routine or else they were cranky and rebellious.  Many people from the 1950's were all about their houses being so spotless and were to be shown off to others as well.  They always followed the mantra of cleaning up after yourself as you went and making sure you had good cleaning habits.  Lots of educational advertisements at the time wanted the public to wake up and dress in presentable clothes, it did not matter that you were a housewife.  You had to look and had to have the attitu...

Elvis Presley 50's

Elvis Aaron Presley was born January 8, 1935 and he died on August 16, 1977.  He was considered as a big star in the era of the 1950's. Presley is labeled officially as an American singer.  This man is also known for being a musician and an actor. He married Priscilla Presley from 1967 through 1973.  It is fascinating to know that Presley has four grandchildren. Before he became this big singer he was actually traveling on the road with his bandmates.  What he is known for is his style of music was labeled as rockabilly. He had the ability to combine country music with the blues.  It is shocking to find out that Elvis never wrote any of his songs according to an article.  What is known is that his label gave him the right to have co-writing credit on many songs because his management demanded song writers give 50% of the credit before Presley would record it.  Elvis's biggest hit during his prime was called, "Don't Be Cruel." Many people loved him duri...

What Purses Women Wore In The 1950s

 Jasmine Chiswell's YouTube videos are so well put together and she has such accurate information on 1950's things and mannerism's.  This film starts off with her talking about her dogs which are so cute and adorable. Then she goes on to talk about how she is doing a, "1950s vintage handbag haul." Jasmine has her makeup nicely done as women did theirs back in the 50's as well as her hair.  What was so interesting to know was how she lives in Marylin Monroe's house, which she does not talk about in the video but thought I'd mention it because it is cool to hear about.  She shows us her vintage bag and it looks so unique. It looks like a bag that would not be in the 1950's era but more futuristic like today's handbags.  The bag is so shiny, cute, and small. Although you would not fit a whole book in there it is enough to put money and some bank cards in there.  Chiswell's purse has a little clasp and not a zipper that most bags have now. It l...
