Late Victorian Hairstyle

Late Victorian hairstyles are very different to the early ones, they are more structured and have more about them. They are bigger in volume and height from off the head, they are more fancy and just overall have more to them.
I think i prefer these looks and styles compared to the early Victorian looks, when I did this look i saw that we use the Victorian ways to produce wedding and prom hair from these styles.

Here is the image I used as inspiration for this look -

What I used
- Heated rollers
- Grips
- Pins
- Tongs
- Bobbles
- Combs

What I did 
1. I started off by sectioning the front of the hair from the back and putting the hair in to a middle parting
2. Using small heated rollers on the top of the head going down I did two rollers and the last two I did sideways as in the pull in the hack from the face
3. Keeping those in to cool down, i then got the top section of hair and put in to a bobble and then a bottom section of hair in to a bobble either. All about the hair line at the back and sides of the head, going around the neck I left about an inch wide of hair
4. The hair that was around the hair line left out I put in to heated rollers to get those to curl too
5. The hair that was in both bobbles I used a small curling tong to curl this part of the hair
6. Once the hair was all curled in the bobbles I started pinning the hair up in to a barrel curl but leaving the ends of the hair out so they dangled down
7. I did this for every bit of hair in the bobbles and then I took the rollers out of the hair line going round the back
8. Pulling the hair up in to the middle of the head I pinned the hair to look like the curls were falling down around the head, I did this all around the head
9. The front rollers I then took out the hair as they were cool too, the sides of the hair i pulled back and in to the design at the back
10. The top parts of hair I pulled back but let the hair wave loosely going back in to the hair too

This is the finished look -

Reflection 
I was really pleased with the look I made today, I had never done a put up by putting the hair in two bobbles at the back and pinning around them to make it look like there is more volume and more hair on the head.

I really liked the look i created on my model, I think it actually really suited her, if I was able to make it more modern say with a side parting I think it would be a lovely look for a wedding or prom.

The only thing I found difficult was my models hair was so thick so it want taking to the tongs straight away and they were dropping out too. But I worked with it and in the ned I think it looked really good.

Overall, I am really happy with what I produced, I have used heated rollers a lot and I have done a lot of put up designs as well so I feel okay with styling hair like that. I think the final look, looked really nice and I was very pleased with it.
