the fabulous forties wig course
Three iconic 1940s hairstyles. Fresh techniques, fabulous results! Class Dates: Jan 10th, 11th, 17th and 18th 2027 - 11am UK time
Step back into the glamour of the 1940s and join me for a brand new online wig styling course! In The Fabulous Forties Wig Course, I'll be teaching you how to create three stunning vintage hairstyles using synthetic lace-front wigs, exploring exciting new setting patterns, sculpting techniques and styling skills along the way.
From the dramatic height of a sculptured pompadour to the intricate curls of a classic 1940s poodle and the striking structure of triple victory rolls, each look brings its own techniques, challenges and creative possibilities. Whether you've joined me for previous courses or this is your first time learning with me, there's plenty of fresh inspiration, new skills and fabulous forties hair to get stuck into!
The looks -
The Sculptured Pompadour
Learn how to create dramatic height, beautifully sculpted shapes and intricate detailing in this elegant 1940s updo.
The 1940s Poodle
A playful wartime classic! We'll explore how to build volume, create beautifully defined curls and shape the iconic poodle hairstyle.
Triple Victory Rolls
Taking the classic victory roll a step further, we'll create a striking three-roll design, focusing on precision, balance and beautifully polished finishes.
Each look introduces a different approach to working with synthetic lace-front wigs, giving you a whole new collection of techniques and skills to take into your own styling.
How the Course Works
The Fabulous Forties Wig Course takes place over four live online classes, spread across two weekends, all hosted in a private Facebook group exclusively for course participants.
I'll guide you step by step through all three 1940s-inspired wig designs, covering everything from the initial setting patterns and preparation to sculpting, shaping and finishing each look.
The private Facebook group is also a great place to ask questions, share your progress and connect with other students throughout the course.
Can't make the live classes? No problem!
Every session will be recorded and available to watch back in the group. You'll also receive permanent access to downloadable recordings, so you can revisit the techniques and learn at your own pace. Whether you're joining live or catching up afterwards, you'll have everything you need to recreate these fabulous styles yourself!
