Has anyonme done a good Bettie Page Style pinup hair since AprilYSH released Sheridan hair for Genesis 3?  Propschick's Georgina hair for G8 is more of a 40's style pinup stule and the hair looks wrong with the swirls and side wings removed.  TIA

    The Georgina hair is definetly not 1940s. Victory roll hairstyles had uncovered foreheads. Definitely no bangs.     https://glamourdaze.com/2019/04/victory-rolls-vintage-hairstyles-tutorials.html

    The Yvette hair reminds me of those from the 40s posters promoting working women for the war effort.

    My memories of the 1950s of hair is the dominance of tight curls from perms, bangs and styles like Mamie Eisenhower's, or the movie stars. This is a link to a Google search of some of their images showing hair styles. You could also search for YouTube of Dick Clark's American Bandstand, but here is a Google search of stills. My older cousin taught me to dance to the show in the late 50s. It was one of my 'must see' programs from then and onto the 60's.

    I know there's a few hairs in the store that look like a pageboy, but that's kind of a 40's hairstyle too. Lauren Bacall and Veronica Lake made it famous ;) (also called "peekaboo")

    Would this one work?
