Victory rolls

Victory rolls are a vintage hairstyling technique popular in the 1940s, characterized by large, rolled curls that often frame the face or crown the head. Created by carefully curling sections of hair and then shaping them into loops before setting them with pin curls or hair spray, they resemble rolled or "V"-shaped formations. Historically, they symbolized triumph and morale during wartime, often seen in military-inspired fashion and pin-up looks. Today, victory rolls are celebrated for their glamorous, retro aesthetic, evoking mid-20th-century vintage charm and sophisticated style.
