Contemporary Elizabethan hairstyle practical

My Contemporary Elizabethan hairstyle

Here is my contemporary hair design-

After creating my hair charts i wanted experimented in class to see bring my idea for my assessment to life and see if it was practical and could be easily accomplished by my partner as she was recreating the hair hairchart.

I decided to use padding on each side of the hair forming a love heart. It was challenging to cover up the padding and whilst making sure the padding was firm and could be held into place for a long period of time without coming loose. To hide the padding i used a crimper and a brush to buckbrush the hair to create volume and thickness. At the back of the head i decided to do a spiral braid starting from behind the ear gradually going to the centre of the head where it will join into a spiral bun.
