Hair styles, What to wear?

During the 1940's the common hairstyle was up and tightly rolled in creating elaborate curls framing the face. This Style I feel spanned off from the shorts bobs and waves of the 1920's and early 30's with the flappers. At the bottom of the page I found a newsreel showing upcoming hair styles of the 1940s.

Personally I have slight obstacle with my hair being so long, however I have experimented with alternative styles.
Using the method-
- Matt up hair
- Twist
- Pin in
- Lots of Hair Spray! :)
