Failure Rolls

My latest fun project involves hair and make-up for what I thought would be a musical based in the 1970s. For some unforeseeable reason, the director decided, with grand sweeping gestures, IT SHALL BE COSTUMED IN THE 1950S.

Makes perfect sense. Doesn't that just scream atomic paranoia? Questionable decisions aside, I thought it would be a great opportunity to practice various vintage hair styles.
VICTORY ROLLS ARE FUCKING HARD. SERIOUSLY.
I cannot grasp how the fuck they stay. I had it working for a few minutes, but it continually looks...off. I'm searching desperately for some rats to shove in these actress's hair. I've tried simple bobby pin methods and it ain't working.
Lordy lou I'm about to start praying.
