How to Style Hair Like Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe was an icon and her memory and beauty live on today. She was a sultry seductress, and along with her curves, her hair style was enticing and copy worthy. You can style your hair like Marilyn Monroe for a sexy Halloween costume, or for a sultry new look for your hair and style.

Instructions

1. Decide whether or not you want to go bleach blond. You can style your hair like Marilyn Monroe with or without the peroxide.

2. Use pin curls for the sexy Marilyn Monroe style. Start by spraying some curling spray on your dry hair. If your hair is still damp, make sure to blow dry the excess moisture out before you begin.

3. Get your curling iron hot, and curl small sections with iron. The sections should be small in order to get the Marilyn Monroe pin curl style.

4. Twist each curl, and pin each twisted curl to your head with rolling clips. Let this style set for at least an hour, or you can wrap your head and sleep in the curls overnight.

5. Take the pins out of your hair, shake the curls gently with your fingers, and luxuriate in your Marilyn Monroe style.

6. Go another route, and get Marilyn Monroe's pin curls without a curling iron. Put setting lotion or mousse in your hair, and comb it through to the ends. Twist small segments of your hair the same way as above, just leave out the curling iron portion of the steps.
