Hi ladies!

So, I finally got down a way to get curls that last (wet set, foam rollers, over night). Now that I've managed that, I'm looking for some easy vintage inspired hairstyles to do!

The tricky part is that my hair is really long and thick. It reaches just past my back bra strap when it is straight and falls just below my shoulders when curled. It is all the same length with the exception of what once were thick side bangs that have grown out to be shoulder length when straight and an awkward half-head length when curly.

Any suggestions?? :)

Thank you!!

With tight enough pin curls it might still be fine to style down. There's always victory rolls too. Those can be lovely with long hair.

Bumper bangs are one of my favorites at any length :)

Have you ever watched Ashley on youtube? She has awesome video tutorials that take you from start to finish and she has long hair; she goes from bumper bangs to pin curls and all kinds of up dos' as well as making your hair appear shorter to carry of styles that look amazing on shorter hair as well.
