WWII 1940s Style Hair and Victory Rolls History

What is the difference between WWII hair style and a 1940s hair style? There were hair styles that were designed specifically for women working and serving during WWII in the early 1940s. And some of these hair styles were designed to be a morale boost. Victory Rolls are the hairstyle we think of today, but there were other styles, like the Victory Bob, that were all over popular media at the time and this piece of WWII history is fascinating.
