BRIGITTE
BARDOT
Brigitte's
stunning look is one that gals have been
inspired by since the sexy star began her
career in the '50s. Her long, tousled blonde
locks can be achieved best if you have long,
layered and thick hair. First wrap thumb-width
sections around a curling iron, and hold
five seconds then release. Then twist each
curl around your finger, pin it against your
scalp and spray it with hairspray. After
about 15 minutes, remove the pins and shake
out the curls. Voilà! Brigitte's
coquettish coif is created! |
CATHERINE
DENEUVE
Catherine's
hair is always in pristine condition. I'm not
sure of products she used to use for her hair,
but for the past couple of years she has been
the face of L'Oreal. From
Kate: "One
of the things she said she did was condition
it once a week with vegetable oil and never washes
her hair without conditioning it. Also she was
a fan of Phyto hair products and the gentleman
who began the company used to style her hair
personally in the 60's." |

LAUREN
BACALL
It's all about products when it comes to keep your hair sleek and chic
like Lauren's. Put mousse or a curl activator spray on your hair. Use
your curling iron to create loose curls vertically from your face. Then
apply a little bit of Anti-Frizz product to keep your curls smooth. Shake
out your curls. Then spray some hairspray to hold them. Click

RITA
HAYWORTH
Rita’s
hair was often parted on
her right-side and cascaded
into gorgeous waves. Its
instructions are just like
Lauren Bacall's style: Put
mousse or a curl activator
spray on your hair. Use
your curling iron to create
loose curls vertically
from your face. Then apply
a little bit of Anti-Frizz
product to keep your curls
smooth. Shake out your
curls. Then spray some
hairspray to hold them. From
Brent: "I have
a solution too, you must
smooth the hair but restructure
the curl so you have to
use a heated curling iron
to smooth but curl it,
then after that use pin
curls but follow a pattern
like Rita’s curls should
fall." Another how-to
can be found here. |

VERONICA
LAKE
To give yourself
a beautiful, side-parted Veronica-like
hairstyle, begin with wet hair and
spray on a hair thickener to give your
tresses some extra body, then blow-dry
it straight. To make waves, pull a
chunk of hair from the ear forward
in an “S” shape, then use curl clips
to fasten the sections. Spray them
with hair spray, and then let them
out. Another option is to use your
curling iron. Curl it backward, spray
it and then finger-comb it. Finally,
put gel or a shining spray on your
hair for extra shine. For another how-to

VIVIEN
LEIGH
For
this particular style from Gone
With the Wind, Vivien's entire
hair was curled using either pin-curls
or rollers (or her hair could have
been naturally wavy). Next, her
hair was parted down the middle.
Finally her hair was sectioned
off on one side and made into a
barrel roll. The same was then
done symmetrically to the other
side. For tips about how to create
hair rolls, check out this
