It's oddly comforting to know that historical hairstyles used a ton of fake hair. It makes me feel better about my thin hair knowing that women in the past did not somehow have genetically superior hair.

@silvousplaits 5 лет назад

Same. It's also freeing in a way cuz it gives me license to use more hair and get more creative with shapes. I've started making my own hair rats with brush hair wrapped up in hair nets.

@TheRedkdawg 5 лет назад

You can’t do these hairstyles without pieces and/or extensions. They openly advertised wigs, etc in the family magazines

@darianrose2195 5 лет назад

THIS. My hair has good lift at the root and holds a curl for days, but is naturally very straight and isn't the thickest head of hair, and my younger self would stare at paintings in envy.

3 years ago I had many of my belongings stolen from me during an eviction. upsetting as so many of them held dear memories. one of these stolen items, I had been given by my mother, was called a hair keeper. this item was from the Victorian times and exactly like you're explaining in the video, for keeping extra hair. it was a ceramic shaped 'bowl' appearing item. it was roughly 8" by 4" and came up about 2". the lid for the oval dish had a circular opening in the too middle which was roughly 2" in diameter. after a women brushed her hair, the hair left in the brush was taken and stuffed into this opening to keep. hence, hair keeper as named. the dish was scalloped around the top and painted both lid and bowl dish with dainty yellow flowers of the day. it was something the 'average' woman of the day would own. not a wealthly woman's item. so sweet it was. oh well, at least I have the memory. the thieves however probably didn't have a clue what it was for. at least that gives me a laugh. I so enjoy your videos and think it's wonderful that you are so interested in hairstyles of years gone by and so delightful that you share them with us. love and blessings to you. ❤

@silvousplaits 5 лет назад

@luthersteaching5228 2 года назад

I enjoyed your elegant hair tutorial! When I was a little girl in the late 1950’s, my mother used to cut my extremely heavy, shiny, auburn hair into a “pixie” cut. I hated it so much that as soon as I could put my foot down and refuse to cut it, I let it grow. From middle school through my 20’s I had hair that reached below my waist and it was extremely thick, shiny and luxurious. I often wish that I had just let it keep growing to the floor because my hair keeps growing and growing. Now at 68, alas I will never know what lengths my hair could have grown to. 👩🏻‍🦰 Thank you for your very interesting video! 🤗

Is there any way you could do some “average woman” hairstyles from the Victorian era? It is my absolute FAVORITE time period but I just love that day to day life kind of stuff and those elaborate hairstyles were mostly worn by the well off. There are TONS of styles between what you are showing here and a simple bun or braid lol I’d LOVE to see those!

@cobden28whittehnam7 5 лет назад

I imagine the hairstyles featured here were those worn by ladies with lots of time on their hands and maids to attend to their hair on a daily basis. What about everyday styles, as worn by the average woman of the working classes; I don't suppose they had the time for elaborate hairdo's.

@RedDesertRoz 5 лет назад

Honestly, for those like me with outrageously thick hair, there's no way I need to add any fake hair to do these styles. It's so weird to me that women envy such thick hair, because for the everyday care and getting it out of the way for practicality, it's hard work that I just don't have time for. Every time I've been to a new hairdresser, they can't get over how thick my hair is, often calling the other hairdressers over, saying things like, "You have just got to see how thick this woman's hair is". Yah, yah, thanks, I know, right! It's crazy! Please don't wish for super thick hair, ladies! Your hair is gorgeous as it is.

@catbaril9072 5 лет назад

I would REALLY like a serie with hairstyles using only hair sticks, strings, combs and such instead of the modern pins and elastics. I don't use elastics and I barely ever use pins, I try to avoid them, and those alternatives are way better in many cases (Not gonna lie, they have cons too-nothing is perfect). Anyway, that would be interesting and how cool does it sound to go to an evening and not spend a week pulling bobby pins out of your hair?

@akechijubeimitsuhide 5 лет назад

Janet Stephens has some examples of (mostly Roman) hairstyles where she uses sewing, and I can confirm it's very comfortable, unlike bobby pins. When you want to take it down, you just carefully cut the thread and pull it out.

@anneclinton2928 5 лет назад

That's a period where theatre hair is very easy, because women would have covered their hair with caps essentially all the time - it was partly modesty, and partly practicality, since covered hair doesn't need to be washed as frequently. You can have everyone do a simple bun and then wear caps over it! The caps (also called coifs) are fairly easy to make; depending on your level of interest in historical fidelity, you could also use mob caps (these have a little frill and become common a bit later than your period, but they're easier to find patterns for).

@@Manakuuchiha It's a german school and we speak german, also we are performing in german. Our literature teacher is also teaching english so he's interested in american culture. I think the reason, that we chose this drama is because of our large number of acting students (21) suiting the play very well. In our town there's quite an interesting history in witch trials too as a tower where witches were tortured is one of our sights. Somebody stood up for the 'witches' and against the church, saving many young girls. Our school is named after him so the theme is quite fitting for our particular school too.

Wonderful video! I love the historical hair! Is there a "best practice" for using heat protectant? Like, "should" you spray each individual section vs spraying your whole head at once, or let it dry vs apply heat while it's wet...? Maybe none of it matters, but I know you sometimes read up on hair science. I can't find a straight answer! (So again...maybe it doesn't matter...lol!)

@silvousplaits 5 лет назад

A couple recommendations would be use an alcohol-based as opposed to water-based product, and let it dry (except not applicable when blow drying hair). The reason is that the short chain alcohols evaporate from the hair faster than water. Under high heat, liquid in the cortex of the hair strand will vaporize and burst out, which damages the structural integrity.
