Hairstylist and re:TREAT Color + Hair Design and Studio Owner Anna Peters (@annas_hair_retreat) shares her tutorial for a 1960s-inspired twist. If you love hair looks inspired by the decades, Peters has you covered.
The look takes inspiration from "Apartment 7A," a new Paramount+ original movie that is a prequel to the 1968 horror classic "Rosemary's Baby." Set in New York City in 1965, the psychological thriller stars Julia Garner as Terry Gionoffrio, a young struggling dancer that gets injured and drawn in by dark forces who promise her fame.
The hairstyle Peters created is an iconic look from the decade and creates the perfect costume when paired with dance attire or thrifted '60s clothing (of course, you can always rock the style on its own).
“This '60s Broadway-style look is from the final dance scene and is telling of today’s modern messy twists with volume coming back to the top of the head and around the face,” explains Peters.

- Take horizontal sections through crown are and create mega volume using the Sam Villa Textur Professional Textur Iron on the first 2-3 inches of hair.
- Comb hair back gathering at the top back of head and using a Sam Villa Signature Series Tail Comb to lift hair for desired volume and balance.
- Secure hair half up with two bobby pins attached to an elastic. Slide one pin in horizontally then wrapping elastic across to opposite side and slide pin in crossing at base.
- Gather the rest of hair at center back twisting up to meet and cover previous elastic. Tuck ends under and pin in place to secure.
- Pinch and style fringe for finishing touches on the modern-day thrilling style of a bouffant.
