1960's Hair & Make up

1960's Hair


The baby boomers has now step into their teenage years. They color the world to their taste and fashion specific. And we all know there are LOTS of them swinging!




Just like back in the 50's, curls are still in today. Big curls,tight curls, spit curls; curls bobbing on a shorter hairstyle or tumbling off longer lengths, curls are all the rage.




Hair in the 60's is all about volume. The bigger the better! Yeah baby! 60's hair style is full of roller work, so whip out the biggest and the baddest rollers you can find! (Cold cream optional) Teasing is a must have too, and ends will need to flick! It's all flirty and fun, think Austin Powers!


Ribbons and hairbands are all the rage too! Remember to color code and match your outfit!



60's hair is very styled and controlled. whether long, straight, curly or fuzzy (yeah you read me right, fuzzy) a great deal of attention was paid to getting just the right look.

1960’s make up


Google 1960’s make up and you will get one name over and over : Twiggy.


A Mod icon, Twiggy inspired many girls in the 1960’s and continue to be a inspiration today. The foundation was matte, and blush often left out. Colorless face draws all attention to the eye makeup. And what eye makeup it was! Big, dramatic eyes were the ultimate fashion ploy. Mascara layered so thick that lashes clump together like falsies; falsies applied and then more mascara. Eye shadow all the way to the brow bones in broad daylight, and the eye liner brave the adventure all the way around the eye.


See how it's done:

Exercise caution and proceed with care. These eyes are becoming weapons!
