victory rolls

Retro hair tubes

Victory rolls are a women's hairstyle from the 1940s in which sections of hair are rolled into cylindrical curls, typically framing the face.

The style evokes wartime glamour and pin-up aesthetics: She wore victory rolls to the swing dance.

The name may reference the aerial maneuver pilots performed to celebrate a win.

Victory rolls remain popular in vintage and rockabilly fashion.
