Curved Up And More

Shelley appeared on the covers and pages of many major magazines throughout her modeling career. In August of 1971, she appeared in a spread for Glamour magazine called "8 New Hairdos." It featured eight chic new hairdos that young women could recreate for themselves in the comfort of their own homes. Shelley wore four of the eight new hairstyles. They were soft and pretty hairdos for longish hair that could be achieved with either a heated-roller set or a brush and blower technique. She modeled the Curly Flip, the Soft Pageboy, and the Pulled Smooth look (For more, check out: Curly Flip, Soft Pageboy, and Pulled Smooth)

In a sweater by Match II, Shelley also modeled the Curved Up look, a hairstyle that could be achieved by using a hand dryer and a wide-space nylon bristle brush. After shampooing and towel-drying the hair (a mild setting lotion could be applied if preferred), pick up sections of hair (about two-and-a-half inches wide and an inch deep) and blow dry for a few seconds six inches away from the hair. Continue this around the head. When the hair is about dry, pull it taunt but not tight and wind it gently. With the dryer four inches from the hair, roll the ends upward, blow it for a few seconds to let the heat "set" the hair. For the curviest version of this style, roll the ends upward higher. And of course, Shelley looked sensational wearing the Curved Up hairstyle.
