Creating an Elizabethan Hairstyle 

We had to create a Elizabethan Hairstyle using all the techniques we have learnt. I started off by curling the front section of the hair as I wanted them to cool while I created the rest of the hairstyle. 

Once I'd curled the first section I then went onto Crimping the rest of the hair as this was going to be the texture of my Bouffant, I crimped the hair then brushed it out so the hair expanded.

I then went on to creating the bouffant. I did this by sectioning a small part of hair at the front, I then went onto deciding where I was going to place me padding once I'd decided where the padding was going I created a tight french braid as this was going to act as my anchor for my padding. Once I'd pined the padding into the french braid I pulled a section from under the padding and placed this over the padding as this was going to help me disguise the padding better, after that I pulled the front section of the padding to create this high bouffant. I tried my best to make sure it was perfect.

After creating the Bouffant it was time to use the pin curls to decorate my high bouffant. I started by releasing the pin curls and I used small pins to pin the curls into the bouffant. 

I am extremely pleased with how it came out, I wish I'd had time to finish it completely however my model had quite thick hair which meant that crimping her hair took quite a while. This means I need to be quicker and be more efficient with time keeping. I'm happy with the placement of the curls to as I tried to think of where to pin the curls and I think it came out great.
