The final three (1)

So my first design I decided to add as many techniques as I could. I started with a french plait going all the way on the hair line to help create a round shape at the front of the hairline. I then wanted to add a heart shape nearer the back to give it more of a Elizabethan theme. To create the heart shape, I would crimp the hair, divide it into two so when you go to roll it back, its easier. I would then back comb it whilst spraying hairspray, so it creates more volume. When thats done I would roll the pieces into the shape and push hair grips in so it stays in place. I would then move pieces around to make sure the shape looked exactly how I would like it.

Whilst at the back I wanted to divide two sections at the back, french plait them and twist them into buns.

To help finish the look I wanted to add ribbon to the plaits at the back. 

Here is a picture of when I first attempted to create the love heart shape with stuffing.
