If you Google "hairdresser on stilts," the first thing to come up will be a Regency-era satirical cartoon showing a man on stilts trying to wrestle a woman's very long head of hair into shape.
ugh, hard plastic curlers were the bane of my childhood. My mother "fixed" my hair everyday for school. The hairstyle reminds me of the Greek goddess statues. Well done. Also, in regency you would have had a maid to help or a sister at least. =) This was fun! The Cher look was cool. Bring it back en vogue
This was so much fun, congratulations on what certainly looked like a difficult hair-style to make! ! It makes one think that those Regency Ladies must have devoted a lot of time to doing their hair according to the fashion of the time. I hope we'll get more videos from your Hair Salon :)
Your Jane Austen content this month has all been so fun and creative! As a theatre/dance person, those spin pins are a lifesaver! I really love the way defined ringlet curls look so I always get excited when I get to use them for a costume :)
This was great 😂 Hats off to you - I could not have attempted anything nearly as good without the help of a lady’s maid! 👏 And if you go full Cher, that will be impressive with the amount of hair you have!
the way your hair looks is the greek and how they wore back then.but you came close to trying. :) it looks great! wish my baby fine hair can hold curls! lol i got a ringlet hair piece that has a look of jane austen's time. love the curls! :)
Namaste Claudia dear😀💖💖💖💖💖 This was refreshing😂😂😂😂😂Honestly - you were quite close but the best part was "skull made of steel" !!! 👍👍👍👍👍💖and undoing the rollers from your hair😊Very innovative💞👍👌
You definitely captured the Regency vibe. I’m impressed. I hope you get as many views as the Brontë hairstyle did. Back in the day I had rollers like that but they were hot rollers so thank goodness there was no need to sleep in them. Just a few minutes and “ta da” ringlet like curls. (I have no idea if these many years later, they are still available to buy.)
I love videos like these. Historical hairstyles look amazing and I want to try them....and then like you I have gobs of super long hair and it's a bit much to deal with! I really should try foam rollers. Thanks for doing this! And the end result is really pretty.
The rollers were such a pain to take out though! I don't know what the best way is to curl long hair, but I'm going to try out a curling iron next because I really like the look of those curls
Love the curls on you! I, too, have straight hair and been never tempted to curl them before this. Now I think I should give it a try. On a side note, what is your PhD topic? I thought something related to Regency music and literature. Thanks!
My hair would never hold the curl in the front. It goes straight so fast! Good job with problem solving! That would be tricking to figure out with your hair length.
I also don't understand how anyone can sleep with rollers in - getting to sleep is hard enough without. The ringlets are stunning but I think the 80s look is better than the Regency one in the end! I wish I had the patience for this level of hair styling.
