Last month we told you that the wonderful Jane Marie from the wonderful Hairpin would be doing a beauty tutorial for us, and we asked what look you wanted her to teach you. The overwhelming majority of you asked for…Audrey Horne! But Jane basically already did that with her 1950s Glamour Tutorial on the Hairpin back in August, so go watch that to Audrey Horne yourself up.
The second-highest vote getter was Margot Tenenbaum, but Jane pointed out that that tutorial would be basically “Flat-iron your hair and use a ton of black eyeliner.” No one needs a tutorial for that.
Third in the rankings was Clara Bow. (Audrey Horne, Margot Tenenbaum, and Clara Bow? Damn, you Rookies are cool.) Jane jumped all over that idea. And here is the awe-inspiring, adorable, hilarious result:
Thank you, Jane! We love you.
If there’s a specific look you want one of our staffers, or a guest, to teach you how to do at home, let us know in the comments!
Yay! I love Clara Bow
Log in to replyWoo! Loved it. There’s all these tricks I never even knew about. Thumb up!
Log in to replyGreat video…but everyone knows Louise Brooks is way cooler than Clara Bow.
Log in to replyOmg yes Louise Brooks!!!
Log in to replyYES!
Log in to replyLouise Brooks is… Incredible. I bobbed my hair like hers a few moths ago, and I love it. I’m amazed that TWO rookie readers, aside form myself, know who she is!
LOVE THIS!! Now going to force my BFF to have a costume bday party so i can try this out! :)
Log in to replyI LOVE Clara Bow! This is fantastic.
Log in to replyI love it! I’m definitely going to try this.
Log in to replyI’d love to see some easy to do hairstyles that medium/short hair girls can rock! My hair is just about at my shoulders and I’m always lacking ideas, or really the skills. I can manage a basic bread and some ponytails but that’s about it! :(
Log in to replyi plan on doing a 8-minute beehive tutorial soon!
Log in to replyI like the sounds of this! Looking forward to it :)
Log in to reply1. Audrey Horne

3. Clara Bow
I LOVE THE ROOKIES THEY HIJACK MY THOUGHTS

I SECOND THIS NOTION
Log in to replyMotion passed.
Log in to replyAmazing idea!=)
Log in to replywe already decided we are buying a pink summer house in iceland. volcanos ftw!
Log in to replyIm in.
Log in to replyI’ll bring the milk with ice
@TessAnnesley – I’m in!
Log in to replyI am coming to the island.
Log in to replyThank you for the tutorial! I absolutely adore the Roaring ’20s. Just wondering, Clara Bow inspired the cartoon Betty Boop and/or Snow White, right?
Log in to replyIf you mean the Disney Snow White, i’m pretty sure she looked like this because this was made in the 1920s!=)
Log in to replyI can attest that soap does work for flattening/shaping your eyebrows! Pixiwoo on YouTube has a really good Clara Bow tutorial (and a bunch of others too!) Although I like how Jane Marie’s tutorials focus on wearable, easy to emulate looks. Thanks!
Log in to replyinstructional and VERY entertaining! WIN WIN! THANK YOU!!!! <3
Log in to replyWow! This is awesome. Thanks guys!
Log in to replySuper awesome tutorial! I have been obsessed with the roaring twenties for the longest time, and for a while I kinda thought I was the only one. It’s so cool to see that other people are into this kind of thing, too! :) See, this is why I love Rookie. It just magically contains all of the things I love/am obsessed with. I noticed that most of your how-to style tutorials are how to look like a blast from the past – maybe you should start calling them Time-warp Tutorials? :)
Could you also please do a tutorial on one of the following?
Log in to reply1. Veronica Sawyer’s look (from Heathers)
2. Audrey Hepburn (Sabrina/Breakfast at Tiffany’s)
3. A really 90′s party-girl look (kinda similar to how Alicia Silverstone looked in that party scene in Clueless)
Thank you Rookie! I am having a mini-obsession with the 20′s resulting from Midnight in Paris and The Great Gatsby. The other day I googled “20s style” and got frustrated because finger waves aren’t exactly the easiest hairstyle. But you guys are awesome-I get a great tutorial right here.
Log in to replyHow about teaching us how to do epic victorian hair? That would be cool
Log in to replyA look that I would like to learn is Allison Reynolds from “The Breakfast Club”, before her makeover. Thanks.
Log in to replyawesome tutorial!! :D how about one on Debbie Harry from blondie? even till today, she always seems to have wicked cool make up on. . . :3
Log in to replyHey guys, If any of you can help me it would be greatly appreciated.
Log in to replyI want to dye the tips of my black hair without bleaching it. I checked out the manic panic website and I want to use the purple haze. Is there any way I can achieve a purpleish look without bleaching my tips? Thanks
Courtney Love, “Live Through This” era would be so amazing. Or some version of the smeary rocker/melted beauty queen/babydoll look.
Log in to replyYou can also use chapstick or lip balm for your eyebrows
Log in to replyThis is bloody amazing! I am trying this out!
Log in to reply@MissKnowItAll
I’m a natural blonde and I had no issues dying my hair with Manic Panic without using bleach. However, I talked to my hairdresser and she said that unless you bleach your black hair, the purple will barely show up at all. You will have to lighten it to a blonde if you want it to have a really vibrant color. The more you bleach it, the more the purple will show up.
Log in to replyThanks Ruby,
Log in to replyJust one more question.
If I dye only my tips, will it affect the rest of my hair?
Thanks a bunch
YES to Debbie Harry!
Log in to replyAnd Courtney Love too, for that matter
Log in to replyNICE
Log in to replyCan you guys do a tutorial to get Elizabeth Taylor’s look in Cleopatra?
