This Saturday is Halloween Theme Day at my counter. This year, we all decided to represent a decade, from the 1920's to the 1990's.
Well, I'm going to be the flapper. My costume is ready: I have the big feather headband, and boah, with the fishnets, and the swingy dress.
The only problem is the hair. I have fine, wavy to curly hair.
I am soo not talented in creating finger waves. The bob (which I have), and the finger waves we're the two hairstyles that dominated the Roaring 20's.
How do I get my hair to look like this:

A big feathered headband will be going over my hair, which will also hide 1/2 my head. This is going to be hard to describe but along with finger waves, and bobs, flappers would stick ringlets of hair on their forehead (think Betty Boop), creating ringlet motifs on their skin. How do I do this? I figure I'm going to need alot of gel and hairspray. Do I simply take a strand of hair, create a ring, and hairspray it onto my forehead?
Here is a picture, to illustrate what I am trying to

Thanks in advance! Tips and techniques are greatly appreciated! It's a hairstyle that I've always loved, it would be great if I knew how to recreate it, considering my hairstyling skills are laughable.
