Hair - 1920s

Now if there is one thing i could ramble on about for hours it would have to be vintage hair styles, and i have to confess that I'm completely obsessed. I am still to master the 'finger wave' but i can do the front of my hair so at least that's something! i bought some wave clips from eBay a while ago and they work fine its just getting to the back of your head that's the tricky part, its meant to work best on really short hair but if you want to have a go at trying to do it yourself there are some really handy tips you can check out here. The bob hair cut was really popular, you would always see it on flapper girls in the 1920s and they wore the most amazing cloche hats!

Hello there

My name is Jodie and welcome to the Powder room. I have decided to start this blog as i have been thinking about it for a while now so i thought it was about time i did! I have a passion for make-up, hair and all things beauty related. I'm also an aspiring make-up artist/hair stylist and it would be my ultimate dream to be able to do the things i love in the future. This blog will mainly be about beauty, the things i like and maybe some other little tidbits in between.
