The betrayal of Jessica being 100% gay🏳️‍🌈 and having hair that’s 100% straight 😭

I know you picked those pictures as sample of “bad” hair, but I think you looked gorgeous in every single one of them.

I've always had a typical "masculine" hair cut (like, the hair you would expect a 6'3" white man in the U.S. to have). But I let it grow out from the very beginning of the pandemic, and it's now just past my shoulder blades! Currently trying out every method short of a curling iron to put curl and bounce in my hair. Maybe I'll give foam rollers and a vintage curl pattern a try! I really love the idea of taking your typical hairstyle and putting it on my tall, bearded, gay-man frame 🧔‍♀🌈

Do I wear my hair in a vintage style? Nope Will I be watching this intently, as if I do? Yes, yes I will

I would love to see Jessica do a victory roll, and beehive just for diversity. I bet she will look gorgeous in them.

I love that everybody has story of how they mistreated their hair during the teenage years

I absolutely love how Stevie/Josie and Jessica /Claudia have the same dynamic of shy gf and extrovert gf 💗

I absolutely second the rag curls tutorial! We need to bring back the days of the Jessica Hair Tuto. Your Grace Kelly set is STILL my go-to hairdo when I want something that will last and is cute - and that's saying something considering I, and that video, have both been around since before you hit 25k.

I was diagnosed in 2020 with two different cancers. Even though I didn't have chemo, the hormonal stuff and stress made my hair really thin so I have up and buzzed it all. Now in my 40's I'm rocking the mohawk I wanted in my teens and loving it. I too have super slick fine hair. and know the agony of not being able to keep pins in it.

Didn't know I have curly/wavy hair until high school. No air conditioning, so I'd just soak my hair before leaving home in the morning. First time I did it one year. A friendly girl in my math class just stares at me: What the heck have you been doing to your hair everyday!! You have gorgeous hair! We need to talk at lunch! Mom's family doesn't have curly hair. It comes from Dad's Dad's side, all boys. So Mom taught me to comb and detangle my hair when wet, until strait, then brush it when dry. On curly hair you get poofy fluffy hair doing that. And detangling was a pain, so it never got let grow ling enough to really weigh down. Its lovely hair now. I cut it myself. Only ever had one hair dresser who did what I wanted. So why pay when i can get what I like in my own?

Hair is a big part of my family. (Unfortunately or fortunately) I inherited the need to change my hair every 1-3 weeks from my mom. I've had cornrows, French braids, afros of varying shapes/sizes/curls, finger coils, micro braids, ponytails, weaves, yarns, curls, dreadlocks, buns, bantu knots, halo braids, straightened, beaded, blow outs, beaded with charms, finger waves, beaded with feathers, etc., etc.. Oddly enough I've never dyed my hair, but I think I want to be a red head when I eventually do it. For now I will just enjoy my auburn wig until the time comes.

Can I please also point out how ludicrously adorable Little Jess is. Has a look of my little girl actually. Her hair is too fine and straight for slides, too.

During quarantine I've finally started embracing my wavy hair after years of straightening it (yes, it's ironic given your hair story). I started learning how to style it properly, so that the curls would actually look good. I'd say it went pretty well, even though last autumn I bleached it and toned it blue, so it was a bit damaged. But since russian full invasion I spent several months without regular water and electricity supply, and also fled my home city without any hair products. So by the time I got to a "safer" city, my hair was damaged and brittle. I chopped it all up to my chin, and now rarely have energy to just wash it, not to say style it in any way. I hope I'll come back to curly hair routine. And I also want to dye it green (I had it orange, red and blue before). But I have so much gray hair now, so who knows how bleaching and coloring would go now.

The irony is it’s actually more difficult to create a style like this with naturally curly/wavy hair. My hair is thick and red and wavy/curly, but it’s also porous and rough and frizzy. It doesn’t respond well to brushing. I tried rag rolls a few times, and brushing them out always resulted in a giant frizzy mess.

I'm with Josie - your hair is THE standard, Jess. You inspired me to buy the foam rollers and give it a try a few years ago, but I'm afraid I still haven't managed to make it work. 😅 Love these light hearted videos. ♥️

I would love to see Claudia do some masc-femme vintage styles! The ones you do Jessica are delightfully feminine. But I know next to nothing about butch vintage styles.

Also I'd recommend getting a misting spray bottle and filling it with water. We don't have similar hair types, but sometimes all hair needs a little misting to help with styling.

When I was little I had but a whisper of a wave in my hair but my dad is black and has Afro hair and over time it’s just gotten curlier and curlier to the point of growing up instead of down, I like being masc and having my hair short so it works perfectly for me, I barely have to style it I just pop some water in my hair and shake it about before I leave ❤️ Also it might just be the Scandinavian in me but I love your little baby lego hair 🥺💕💕💕 so cute

A sponsorship that is as entertaining as the main content. So well done 👏

It's kinda interesting to hear about someone's hair journey as a person who never dyed her hair, didn't change hairstyles all that much and could be labeled as "grunge" (meaning, I don't always brush or wash it). The entirety of my hair adventure boils down to cutting my hair shorter and starting to wash it more regularly.

This is why I love foam rollers! People are always shocked I do vintage hair for EASE! It takes a little more work upfront, but it saves me hours of time throughout a week - hours I just cannot waste on my hair due to an energy limiting illness. I don't wear makeup either but most people want their hair to be neat and mine takes ages to achieve neatness "naturaly. So hurrah for foam rollers!

I love a Christmas video on how to rag your hair, as a child my hair curled in Shirley temple ringlets, but has relaxed since. It would also be so Christmasy.❤️🎄

So... When I turned 30, I got an ombre done with the bottom part of my hair... It went from blue to purple to bubblegum pink to finally an orangey red over the span of the next year as different colours faded out. Then I chopped it off from elbow length to about my ears to help out a friend who was auditioning to be a hair stylist at a fancy salon. He got the job. 😊 And now my hair is shorter than its ever been since I was 12. 😖

Jessica’s signature red curls are better than natural - - they are her creation!

My mom cut my hair when I was 6 and I never forgave her for it. I vowed then and there that I would never cut my hair again. I wanted it to pool on the floor behind me. I wanted to fully channel Crystal Gale. I didn't quite manage that but my hair is comfortably around my waist and although it's straight, refuses to hold a curl or style, and hisses at me if I so much as look at conditioner (it doesn't tangle, I don't need it), it *does* stay put in a bun that requires no hair pins or elastics. So that's fun. Plus I get to impress little children at the store when I let the bun fall and my hair cascades down my back. Very Disney princess. Highly recommended.

Yes, please. I would like to watch a Christmas rag curling video!

I put my hair in pincurls for my first wedding. I left them in until right before we left for the venue fifteen minutes away and put in half a bottle of hairspray and did not touch my hair. Got there and finger combed and did the other half can. Lasted half an hour. Perms did work if I used the smallest size they had.

Jessica ought to design a vintage clothing and accessory line.

I was today years old (having used foam rollers intermittently for probably 12 years with mixed success) when I learned that you could wet the curler rather than just your hair..... 🤦‍♀️

I was giggling throughout the video. I did all the things you did. I remember the last perm I ever received; my hair was fried and it broke off and fell out. I never got another perm. I gave up on curls and surrendered to my straight hair. Then alopecia hit and now I wear wigs or just go with a buzz cut. You have lovely hair. And a wonderful sense of style.

I've been blessed with naturally really strong hair, and as a child, it grew so long that I could _sit on it_ if I wasn't careful. My parents refused to let me have haircuts, so I would only ever get split ends trimmed. It was also very, very blonde, so other children often called me Rapunzel. When I was in secondary school, I asked my mother if I could dye it and cut it. She was really hesitant, 'cause she didn't trust that it would grow back as strong. But we did it, and then I had average, roughly shoulder length, red hair for a few months. That later went down to a bob. Changed the dye to black and kept it up until I was 19 and couldn't be bothered anymore. Had a pixie cut around 21, and that was more comfortable. Then I had to have my head shaved, and ever since, I've realised that I absolutely _adore_ having short hair! Plus, it really suits me and gives me more confidence. So even though I probably _could_ grow my hair out to butt-length again, I don't ever want to. Having that much hair in summer was a nightmare.

Hair journey you ask? OH YES! In 2015, my hair was 80 cm long, that is half of my height. It frequently got stuck, in zippers, car doors, in other people's clothing? Also really heavy. But apparently not all people can get hair that long, so it was cool! Then I chopped it off, to just below the ears (profile photo length) and after that things got wild. First I did a hidden rainbow which was SO FUN! But maintaining it meant having a friend frequently do a sort of "pain by number" dye session and it was way too high maintenance. After that I did a BRIGHT pink ombre, so pretty, so fun. But hard to match with fall clothes? So back to blonde. Then I got bored and dyed it sort of a unicorn purple. Which was gorgeous, until the pandemic hit and all hair dressers had to close and it faded, first to blue, then to green and then to a horrible kind of grey? So now, I'm back to blonde and my hair is on its way to getting Really Long ™️ again. Loved this video, thank you! 🥰

I love story time with Jessica! I am laying around with a horrid headache and she still makes me laugh. High praise indeed!

This video is helping me love my curly hair just a little more, cause I can just shower, put in product, and let it dry. Mad props to all the straight-haired folks out there who deal with that! (or you curly haired folks who straighten your hair)

Your hair is gorgeous! In my opinion, a little bit shorter suits you better, just below you shoulder looks amazing and with a more vintage vibe. Love your channel!

This was so interesting! I had red Shirley Temple curls as a child but at around age 10 my hair changed to a dishwater brown and lost most of the curl. Bits of it were straight, bits of it were wavy, other bits were wavy but only at the bottom, it's just a disaster. I used to use the scrunch and curl method and it kinda worked sometimes but I wanted something more consistent so I looked of hair curling methods on KZfaq about 4 years ago and it took me to one of your videos and I've been following ever since. Funnily enough I have red hair cut into a bob, and when I curl it I always do a wet set. I get out of the shower and let it dry a little before putting setting lotion in it and rolling it. Maybe because it's short it dries faster, but sometimes I do take a hairdryer set to cool and help it along a bit.

"It's been a hard week, my first week at the job." "With your wonderful boss, right? ☺️" "Yes, Claudia" 🤣 Edit: OMG, YOUR HAIR CAME OUT STUNNING! It always looks great but WOW, they should definitely book you for actual commercials 😍

During the pandemic, I suffered a traumatic event and had my first (and only thus far) episode of trichotillomania. I pulled out a large clump of hair that gave me a very noticeable bald spot. So I shaved my head. I had toyed with the idea of shaving my head for years but I was scared. In that moment, I was already f'd so if it looked bad, oh well. Now I'm happy with my short hair.

I would love to learn more about your time on Top Model, should you be willing to talk about it. I’m American, and America’s Next Top Model was so awful to the contestants. I hope the British version was kinder. But anyway, I’ve always been curious about it ever since I learned you were on the show.

My hair journey: As a kid I wanted to have as long hair as Rapunzel, so I didn’t cut it at all. It stopped right below my hips, though. Then I wanted to color it brown, but I learned that you should not color red hair because it’s more fragile or something. Four years ago I decided to donate my hair, so I went from hip length to shoulder length. I’m planning on continuing donating it every other year or so. I’ve done it twice by now.

Please do rags for a Christmas video! Maybe as part of a vintage party look. I remember reading 'My naughty little sister' books as a child and one story was about her next door neighbour giving her rag curls. Josie is lovely and does look like a 90's Calvin Klein model 😊

When I was a child my mother would use the rag method on me and my little sister. however, due to being blessed with long and thick hair, by the age of like 10 they would not hold for anything in the world. I have a memory of being 12 and having curled my hair with the rag method so I'd have curls for school and the curls just "falling out" whilst I was walking to school and my hair being back to being pretty much straight by the time I arrived at school

Your hair is indeed the gold standard these days. I follow your roller set tutorial religiously, and the amount of joy my hair brings every person who lays eyes on it is palpable. Everyone loves a random vintage encounter in their day!

I’ve only just discovered your channel through KZfaq recommendations. You are so adorable and witty. Subscribed 😊

Growing up and until I was about 30 years old, I had waist length straight hair that I dyed red and usually wore down. Looked fabulous! Then chronic pain conditions and chronic fatigue came along and I moved to a hotter climate. I started having trouble taking care of my long hair and just wore it up in a bun all the time. I finally decided to get it cut. Told my mom I was going to get a haircut. She thought I meant a trim. I came home with hair that was a couple inches long! Now, 10 years into my short hair journey, I have my boyfriend cut it with trimmers. I just had him cut it a week ago and it's 3/4 of an inch long! Pretty much a buzz cut! I love the way it looks, I love the way it feels, and I love how easy it is to take care of! And he loves it, too! So much cooler, too - it's been 100+ degrees F here a lot this summer, and is still in the mid to upper 80's in September.

Your hair has always looked fabulous. Especially, in the last few years.

No matter the age or hairstyle, she always brings the class and elegance.

The part about hearing your hair sizzle really took me back. My hair is naturally dark brown and wavy, which wasn't acceptable to me as a teenage emo boy in the mid '00s. I had home-dyed black hair (which I ruined my friend's bathroom doing the first time) that I would wash and straighten every single morning before school. Did I blow dry it before straightening it, you ask? No. I put that straightener at the highest setting right to my towel dried hair. Every day. Nothing quite wakes you up like being burned by your own boiling hair water in the morning. I would literally boil the (permanent) dye out of my hair within a couple of weeks and my solution to that was just to dye it again over and over. This went on for about TWO YEARS. Luckily my hair is very thick and strong because yikes.

My hair is a pain to look after. I have to wash it, sometimes EVERY DAY! Also, when I remember, I sometimes get it cut.

I LOVE your vintage style! The 1950s was a fabulous fashion decade!

This is my hair story! Straight as a stick is what Nanny always said, and everything just slides out, headaches, terrible haircut in 5th grade traumatic, never cut again 😒. Grew long, wouldn't take a perm..... yup yup. I feel you girl! 💜💜💜💜💜

I find it so interesting as I am a natural red head and I have curly hair and it was awful as a kid. Everyone made fun of me and said I had spiders in my hair. Now it's like a trend how things have changed!

Your vintage hair videos are how I found you years ago. Love them and all your other content!

I am definitely on team more-hair-videos! My hair isn't as straight as yours, but it is so fine as to almost be invisible, so holding a curl is still a Struggle For The Ages, and your tutorials have always helped me most 😂

I have always had thin straight hair. As a child, it was mousy brown. When it got wet, it completely disappeared on my head. My hair was never longer than shoulder length, until I grew a rat tail in the 80's. I also started perming it. When I met my husband, he liked long hair so I tried growing it long. That was short lived. I now have very short hair and it will stay that way for the rest of my life! :)

Yes please do a Christmas video on how to rag your hair 😍 🤣

I'm glad you didn't put any horror hair salon story here! I learned to cut my own hair because of so many bad hairdressers ignoring what I wanted

Josie!!! 💚 So thrilled to see her here. As a child I always wanted short hair, but then my mother intentionally gave me really ugly short haircuts instead of giving me the cute short haircuts that I would see on boys my age. Eventually I gave up asking for short haircuts, because she was only willing to do the mushroom cut that you were talking about. As an adult I went through a whole phase of trying to force myself to be more feminine and as a result I grew my hair out down to my bum. It's naturally a little bit wavy, but it was so thick and unwieldy that I was regularly breaking hair ties. Eventually I saw someone whose haircut I really liked and I went to a salon in 2015 and had them cut my hair that way. It's I think I called an undercut? The top part of my hair is long enough that I can tie it into a bun, but the sides and back are shaved. And I've been cutting my hair that way ever since!

I was a kid in 80's Australia and I had the EXACT hair and dresses as you! My hair is dead straight, blonde and in a bob. I now refuse to have a bob haircut out of sheer traumatic memories. I always wanted my hair to have a curl like my friends, while I watched them iron their hair to get it straight like mine. Always thought they were crazy.

Ironically as someone with really curly hair I've done a lot of the same things to make my hair less frizzy. Sleeping with wet hair in a bun was my go to.

Through all of high school my hair was long, thick, and curly. But what was bad was I brushed it, so it was big and frizzy. The best thing I ever did was get my hair cut short (very gender-affirming too). Makes it so easy! Now I'm having a difficult time, I've been growing my hair out for the first time since then (like 7 years?) And I'm so at a loss on what to do LOL. Also resisting the urge to chop it off again.

I had hair just like you! Except mine was mousy brown. And I was a highland dancer and had to have a bun so half a gallon of hairspray to hold my dead straight hair up! Mum could not understand why I wanted a bob! Short hair was ok in Highland dancing! No bun! I was so happy! 🤣🤣

You inspired me to start a vintage hair journey, so I will purchase the foam rollers.

More hair trauma: I ripped out nearly all of my hair with a hand mixer as a child, which was *very* painful. Took me 10 years to touch one again and even nowadays I get nervous with loose strands around hand mixers.

I dyed my hair black and grew it down to my waist, it was lower maintenance and a LEWK. And then when I got the right treatment for my autoimmune, I celebrated feeling better with a higher maintenance look of rainbow colored hair, and I'm still doing that now!

I went from long, gorgeous box-black hair that I styled based on your tutorials--- to giving up during the pandemic (and a bad breakup), and shaving it all off! And while I sometimes miss my long hair, my girlfriend lets me do hers up in foam rollers whenever I have the Itch :)

Yes! A Christmas video on curling annoyingly straight hair! Please. :)

My dear, I have NEVER noticed your nose. I am self-conscious about my own, but it fits my face, I'm told. You are adorable just as you are and shouldn't be concerned with the nose!

I finally found someone with hair like mine who talks about making their hair manageable and not just telling me to love it as is

I've SO missed your hair videos!! Thank u!!

as a child and teen i used to get my hair straightened (i have 4b hair), and then my mother would use foam rollers to give it back some curl/wave. then, roughly 12? years ago, i got a pixie, which eventually just became a buzz cut. I've worn my hair natural for ten years now. it's really been ten years of getting to know what my hair is like 😅

I always loved the hair tutorials and would love to see more x

All hair videos appreciated. One’s hair is very independent 🌸

My hair has been on quite a journey. I’m Nordic with fine blonde hair and just like Jessica’s it’s so straight it can’t even hold a pin. Unfortunately as a kid I suffered from trichotillomania, a disorder where you pluck and pull your hair out compulsively, resulting in many mornings waking up with balls of hair all around me, a lot of traction alopecia and a lot of crying! I experienced compulsions for years after, but have now recovered. My hair is a very vulnerable thing for me now and it’s very much a work in progress, but I care for it the best I can. I would love to have long luscious hair, but it just doesn't grow past a certain point so I've embraced a vintage long bob style. Foam rollers were my saviour too!

I love this topic, Jessica, your hair has come a really long way since you were young.

omg Josie!!! that’s so exciting!

My early hair journey sounds so much like yours, even to having a very short haircut and not cutting it for 10 years. I was also a red-head for years. I am older now, and have let it go to its now natural grey. And the amazing thing is that the grey hair is coming in curly!!!! All the years of absolutely straight hair, with nothing helping it curl, and now I wake up to waves and the occasional corkscrew curl. I hope that someday, when you are old and grey, you have the same thing happen.

absolutely yes to new hair tutorial videos! love those

I agree with the 90's model comment about Josie. She reminds me of young Jodie Foster. Also I am stuck in the 90s 'grunge' look, baggy t-shirts with unbuttoned checked/tartan shirt over and baggy jeans or, more recently, cargo pants. Pair that with an undercut bob that was neon purple and is now very faded and mostly white with hints of purple. Except for the dyed hair, (strict boarding school) this is how I dressed when I was 16. And that was 1999... As a kid I basically dressed in whatever my mother gave me to wear, mostly girlie stuff with frills, and my hair was long and super straight, but it takes a curl fairly well. When I was 8 I demanded to have curls like in victorian pictures for xmas. So somewhere there is a picture of me with my hair in rags and the aftermath, but I've not seen them in several house moves. I looked a fair bit like Lucy in the BBC adaptation of the Voyages of the Dawn Treader when she looked in the wizard's book and wanted to be more beautiful than her sister Susan...

I've missed these videos so much! Would love to see more hair/vintage/fashion vids from you

Jessica and Josie are such a great team

Yessss I've been waiting for this video for forever!!!

Love this video! Wonderful story telling, thank you for sharing 🥰

My hair holds curls as much as yours before you permed/coloured it, so I'm gonna look into these things, thanks. ❤️ My hair journey is basically having long just-above-waists length all my live, donating it at 13, growing it out to butt length, donating again and then cutting it myself this year (twice bangs and then all of it).

I really miss the vintage fashion videos! Please do more style videos like this!

Oh gosh, where to begin... So I had really shapely curls when I was a kid and it was a sore topic because they stood out at school. So I was sort of bullied into straightening my hair throughout my elementary school journey one way or another which made the curls go less defined. By the end of high school, I thought I had lost my curls altogether because my hair was basically falling out from all the damage and bad product build-up. Mind you I did not know that this existed back then. So in college, I started dying my hair different colors and experimented with lenghts. I also bought a powerful blowout machine that saved me from harsh heat styling with hot tools because my hair was very thin and took a straighter and cleaner look just by combing it while drying. But this time it was the dyes that messed with my hair and I never got to revive the curls and sort of kept my waves whenever it wasn't annoying to have them. Then I made my last mistake and went platinum when I graduated... which sort of killed any softness/shape and luster my hair had and this drove me into buying a Dyson Airwrap. Which amazingly helped a lot! So I cut it all off and started over: Now, I never style it if it's not with the Airwrap and never use any extra products. I switched to a flexible hairbrush that doesn't rip my hair all the time. I learned to never use drugstore shampoos and never to over-condition. I currently have a nice heavy wave and if I use a styling mousse I can make it into a curl naturally which is cool but I never really bother to do it honestly. I'm learning to embrace my natural color and shape these days which to tell you the truth is a terrifying thing to do. Good luck to everyone on their journey to good hair! TLDR: Kids, never over condition. Never use hot tools. Never use drug store shampoo. Use a proper hairbrush that matches your hair texture and thickness. Never color your very dark hair to platinum and expect it to survive without making your life a living hell because of the sheer amount of effort you will put into maintaining it.

It's was a lovely surprise to see Josie in the video! I love that she is your new PA

Yes to the Christmas episode ideas!

i've always admired your favulous hair!! cant wait to hear the saga!

Yay, fashion vlog! And also, yay josie!!

I love your hair tutorials!! Crossing my fingers for the rag rolling video around Christmas!

I’d LOVE a Christmas hair ragging video! 💜 This was lovely. Thank you for sharing your hair journey with us!

I actually started watching your videos because of a hair tutorial. I was getting bored with my hair, and was trying out different curling methods. I started my loc journey five years ago. My starter locs were about jaw length, and they're now down to my waist. I started dyeing my locs a couple years in. I wore them red for a while, went back to black, then blonde for a few months. Now, as you can see in my picture, they're turquoise, and have been for over a year.

Jessica love your hair and your vintage style, you suite them very well.

So interesting to hear & get peaks of your hair journey thus far. I love your hair & fashion videos, well vintage in general honesty, & would love to see more of those videos

Yeees! More hair video's! I will take any at that point 🤣 My favourite vintage hairstyle is from your tutorial ❤️

I would love more hair videos!

We absolutely need the rag method this Christmas!!

You have been my hair inspiration for so long. I’d love an updated foam roller video! I can never figure out where to put the rollers!

Aw, your old photos are so cute!
