Victoria-Inspired Hair

I was looking through an old Victoria magazine today and found a hairstyle that inspired me.   I tried my own version of it. 

I took a strand of hair on each side, right at the part on top but about 1-1/2 inches from the front.  I twisted/rolled each piece back on each side and attached them together at the back of my head with a clip.  On the clip I had placed a large flower pin.

I then pulled all the hair back, as if to put in a ponytail and twisted it into a smooth bun around the hair clasp.  I then pinned it into place with bobby pins.

Just thought my long hair friends might enjoy it.

  • Hi Lynn! I’ve been meaning to leave you a comment for some time now. I found your blog on the FIAR website when you shared your pictures of your kitchen.

    I visit your “home” every morning as part of my daily routine. It brings me such peace. I have been going through some valleys and I would read your blog to bring a peace to my soul.

    So I wanted to thank you! You have touched me through your blog!

    Many blessings!

    Amity, thank you so much for your sweet comment! I am glad you left one. I had no idea I was getting a visit from you each day, but I’m thrilled. If I remember correctly, you are in an old house too? Is that right?

    I visited homebasics. Is it your site? It’s very well done!

    Thanks, Robin! LOL – I know what you mean about hair getting everywhere. I love your long hair. I have noticed it in your picture. Some days I don’t know what to do with mine. I find if I spend just 15 minutes trying to do something with it, I’m happy.

    Amity, then I think I found your blog too! I am putting you in my blog roll, if that’s okay. I’m so happy to have found you on line. :)
