How To Do 60s Hairdos

The 1960s were known for their fun and glamorous hair styles.Short, volumized bobs were popular at the beginning of the decade.The mid sixties saw the emergence of tall beehive updos and other large styles popularized by music icons of the time.Because of the hippie movement, long hair, natural hair and afros became popular in the late sixties.

Step 1: A tall hive.

Start by making a horizontal part in your hair, starting above one of your ears and going around your head to divide the top of it from the bottom.The hair should be clipped out of the way.Roll the bottom section against your head in a spiral and place it above the nape of your neck.Take the top section of your hair and divide it into two parts.To tease the top section, hold it straight up and comb from the midsection down to your head.Until your hair is teased, do this.Take a comb and begin combing the rest of your hair back.The teasing should have made you grow out your hair.If you want your hair to stay put, clip the ends of it.You can enjoy this classic look by spraying your hair liberally.

Step 2: A ponytail is bumped.

If you want to get volumized hair, add a styling product to towel dried hair and blow dry it.Take the front section of your hair and hold it up.If you want to tease it, comb it downward from the midsection to the crown of your head.Make sure you don't pull your hair back too tightly, because there's still some volume.If you want to create a 60s style bumps at the top of your head, you can loosen the section with a finger and pull it up sideways.Use a comb to smooth the hair on your head.To hide your hair tie, clip a piece of hair around it and put it under a ponytail.

Step 3: A medium-length hairstyle is done.

Your hair should be tangle-free after you comb it.Divide your hair into four sections.If you want to give your hair more hold, take one section and give it a spray at the end.Roll the bottom of your hair in the curling iron until you reach the chin level.The process of curling the ends of the other sections of hair involves taking the hair down and holding it there for a few seconds.Pull the front half of your hair out.To tease your hair, hold the end of it in one hand and the midsection in the other.The rest of your hair should be teased the same way.After teasing, flip your hair back so that the teased sections are hidden.If you want, you can add a headband.The hairstyle was most famous on short hair in the 60s.

Step 4: A half-up volumized hairdo is recommended.

If you want to keep the top section of your hair out of the way, first you have to create two parts above your forehead, then take the other part and put it in a bun.Wrap your hair around a 1.5 inch curling iron to give it a wave.Take the hair that you tied up and hold it straight up.To tease your hair, comb it from the midsection to the scalp.If you want to remove the hair from your forehead, flip it.Then make sure that the top is smooth.Put the bumped section of hair in the middle of your head and create a half up half down look.

Step 5: You can do a natural hair updo.

The hair should be at the top of your forehead.If you have a straightening iron, use it to get the section straight.Pull the section over to the right side of your head, then hold it against the head side and pin it into a spiral.Take the rest of your hair and put it in a ponytail.Take the ends of your ponytail and twist them around the hair tie to create a high, elegant bun.This look can be used on long or medium hair.

Step 6: A braided hippie hairstyle is possible.

If you want to do a simple hippie hairstyle, wear your hair natural.If you have straight or curly hair, you can create two thin braids, one at each temple, and secure them with a hair elastic at the back of your head.

Step 7: You should wear a rounded afro.

You can embrace the hippie side of the 1960s by wearing a round afro.Use a wide toothed comb to remove small sections of hair.This will cause your hair to grow out.If you need styling products, use them.If you want to make your hair look rounded, you'll need to have it cut so that it is the right length on all sides.

Step 8: There is an angle to the hair.

To give your hair a natural texture, wash and air dry it.Take the back section of your hair and hold it straight up.To give it more volume, back comb it from the midsection to the head.To smooth your hair, lay it back on your head and comb the top of it.Pin the hair on one side of your face across from the other so that it doesn't fall off.If you have a long and short bob, this style is extra mod and high fashion.

Step 9: It's time to style your cut.

If you already have a cut, make it 60s-esque by brushing it.To give it a mod look and 60s flair, add shine pomade and brush your bangs to the side.The model Twiggy popularized the pixie cut look.

Step 10: A mop top is needed.

If you already have a mop top style haircut with long bangs and hair that falls to the ears and just touches your shoulders in the back, you can maintain it by adding product and smoothing it.If you have wavy or curly hair, you can use a styling product to get more volume in it.If you want your bangs to cover your eyebrows, comb them straight down.The boyish look was popularized by The Beatles in the early stages of their career.

Step 11: A pompadour hairstyle is good for you.

If you want to do this late 50s, early 60s hairstyle, you have to work on damp hair.If you want to give your hair extra texture, apply a hair cream or gel and push the hair backwards.If you want to blow dry your hair, aim the dryer at your face and spray it with a heat protectant.If you want to keep your hair in place, apply a styling aid such as a wax paste.

Step 12: It's a good idea to do a sleek side part look.

If you want to do this style, your hair should be about one inch on the sides and 10.16 cm on top.Aim the dryer so that it blows your hair back.When your hair is almost dry, comb the sides of it toward the nape of your neck with your fingers.To make a straight side part on one side of your head, use the comb and brush your hair to either side.Put your hand on the top of your head and gently push it toward your forehead.Make the style last longer by spraying it with thwirp.
