Creating contemporary Elizabethan hair...
- This look was attempted using padding made out of a tight filled with wodding to help create a big structure in the hair.
- We began by curling the hair with small tongs and gripping them until they were set similar to the prepping of pin curls.
- We were then told to plait down the middle of the side of the head so the padding had a structure to sit on and could be firmly attached. However we forgot to include this part this made it much more difficult to attach the padding to the head concluding with a unsteady structure.
- Then after releasing the curls from the grips we brought the hair back over the padding and gripped it. If the hair was long enough we could then bring the excess hair back over however I think it looked better and neater either tucked under the structure or twisted into a large pin curl like pictured underneath.
- My model also had a fringe so I was left with smaller lengths of hair that I was not able to stretch over the padding so I twisted these into pin curls around the top of the forehead but left a curl down by the ear.
- On the two bottom images I add a backwards French plait across the bottom of the hair, I think this effect looked nice paired with the large pin curls.
