^I did the hair on the second girl from the left. Found it's WAY easier to do on someone else than on myself!^

Hey Lorilei,
victory rolls are quite hard to get the hang of at first, they look easier to do than they are, you need to train your hair to do what you want with it, my hair is straight and fine which is a nightmare but i get some good victory rolls out of them, maybe try some hot irons, or rollers to get your hair to wavy, backcombing your hair works wonders, make's it so much easier to move your hair into the right position.
if you search on You tube for pin up hair dos, there are some great videos that will give you step by step instructions.

The easiest and quickest way of doing them, in my opinion, is to use heated rollers:

*Take a strip of hair, roll backwards so the hair is facing back from the face
*Repeat on a strip of hair behind this one
*Repeat again on the other side of the head
* Wait until cooled and unroll the rollers carefully
*Using a vented brush, brush the hair onto the back of your hair so it's smooth
*Using your fingers roll them into a coil and pin

If that wasn't clear, here's a couple of youtube links (One from my favourite hair lady Lisa Freemont Street):

Hope that helped :)

what's odd is that i really dont have a problem doing them...where i always fail is when its time to actually pin them down. they always completely fall apart or get completely distorted or just not tight enough. my hair sucks and is super duper thick and heavy :(
