Somos Peruanos 🇵🇪❤️

My spouses family is from Arequipa. I'm on a high right now seeing these amazing hair backgrounds. Def gonna rock one como una Peruana🥳

@@melian7403 And?

Inu The Changa I Think it is pretty universal. The particular style is not that common here in Scandinavia, but You do see it every now and Then (mainly on children and people trying to look like milk maids) but the english braiding technice (or simple braiding technice) is one of the very first thing children from many modern cultures learn to do when it comes to hairstyle.

I think it's also pretty popular for North American First Nations people!

@@katrinepetersen2566 I'm half mapuche and I can tell you, yes it is pretty universal, but in the native South American culture braids are particularly strong, you won't see any hairstyle other than two braids, one down the back, a ponytail or just straight up loose, that's it nothing else not even a bun (I'm talking day to day bases)

Soffi Alvarez Yes!! 👌Thank you!! 😊💕 Do they *never* wear buns though...? I've seen some beautiful south American style buns with ancient haircombs.

+Rosie Brown When it comes to historical hairstyles yes, they do. I was talking more on a day to day basis on the native culture now, as far as I know (and I'm only familiar with the South Andean part) they don't use buns just for practical purposes, usually their hair is way too thick and long for them to do buns. This doesn't mean they couldn't wear them thought. Don't take this as an expert speaking, I'm just passing on what I've learnt from my grandma and watching kinda from the outside.

Yesss!

Why do you say that as though seeing European historical looks is a problem? I like seeing European looks as well. My family is from South America. Very mixed culture.

Azalea Rose lol chill. It’s nice to see something else other then some European standard of beauty.

90sNOSTALGIA um im sorry but european hairstyles get NO RECOGNITION please dont talk sh!t

90sNOSTALGIA also its not standards of beauty its just showing european styles. She is european so of course she will show european ones. I dont see any blacks doing european ones

I totally agree.

Exhibit A: Any anime hairstyle ever

And now I'M tearing up... it's a beautiful chain reaction

Whaaaa that is so cool! Thanks for telling me!

I'm running out of cultures that have mummies with braids :)

Silvousplaits that's fair, we've been spoiled with mummies for direct reference lol. But you always do your best! ❤️

If you like mummies, you should watch ask a mortition 😁 she has a lot of cool stuff about mummies and other death themed content 😊

There is such a rich archeological record in South America that I never knew anything about until I started working on this video. I learned so much!

The Inca Trail is definitely on my list to visit now!

@Skincarejunkie Thanks so much for the tips! This is legitimately on my bucket list now, so I'm writing these details down.

For sure! I didn't do it as much justice as it deserves, but I sorta have my own neuroscience dissertation to be working on as well :P

I remember the first time I heard about research into hair and the woman who tried to recreate Roman hairstyles. It was the first time I heard about sewing the hair and braids instead of pins. That was an eyeopener for me regarding historical hair. :P

THIS

@@silvousplaits I know your channel isn't really active anymore but if you do happen to see this I was wondering if I could get the source for this specific piece of information. I am Peruvian so I really enjoyed this part and I do believe you I would just like proof so other people don't think I'm crazy :). thank you.

LillaIgelkotten I’m also Colombian and I feel this!!

I'm sure fascinated by the ancient and recent histories of the other Americas! I live in the NORTHERN part of North America, i love when there are great documentary shows on the Incas or Mayans or Peruvians of long ago or any ancient civilization that for their time had as good a lifestyle or maybe better as any free folks. Of course they didnt have ALL the meds to heal everything but i think they had a healthier community then anywhere today! I wish i could afford to see the Amazon and all the beauty of the people & forests there. We all need to care about what happens everywhere on this ball we share💚

I wonder if she'd be like "oh cool" or "wtf, my face was smashed in and you only care about my hair?"

We'd be like gods for her so she'd be honoured.

@@eeaotly you really think my ancestors thought yours were gods? You probably learned that in the American public schools lmfao

@@andream.2558Huh?! Sorry, first of all, I am not American. Not at all. And nobody has taught me that. It's just pure logic. The difference between our current planetary civilisation and the ones existing millennia ago is so obvious that it doesn't even worth the discussion.

@@eeaotly oh god so you do view the world with a Eurocentric lense, and it shows. So you think that because we didn’t have smelly castles infested with rats and poop everywhere we were not civilized? So because our civilization didn’t look like yours and your religion we weren’t civilized. Okay you’re right, there’s nothing to discuss here, move along.

Bahamaria For some of those Chinese ones, they're so intricate that she might need a second pair of hands lol.

I'm legit scared to try ancient Japanese wedding styles. They depend on making the hair into big shapes rather than braids and that's soooo hard to do...

An Asian hairstyle tutorial would be cool! Even though i don think my hair would let me style itself into an Asian hairstyle...nonetheless, a tutorial would still be informative

Yes, and it usually looks like styling must take hours...well, maybe just as an inspiration for easier looks!

Yes to all of these!

This video was originally longer with a few more that eventually got cut for time's sake, but the ones I cut were especially unsettling to me because they're so well preserved, that they just look like they fell asleep. That undercuts the psychological distance you kinda need in order to deal with dead bodies. Look up the Children of Llullaillaco.

Wow, that was troubling indeed. Especially as they're children.

@@silvousplaits I don't find mummies unsettling at all. The people are dead whether we have their bodies to study or not. We've learned so much about ancient cultures because we have mummies to study - in a way it gives us an opportunity not only to learn about their cultures but appreciate them as well. Think how many cultures have been lost to the ages because they left nothing behind! Being able to study mummies, especially with the newer techniques that allow scientists to take DNA and use hair samples to discover what they are, etc. helps us learn so much more about a culture than we would otherwise know. And isn't that what a lot of these cultures wanted, what a lot of people want - to be remembered? The children you're talking about, for instance, they were killed whether we like it or not, whether we ignore them or not, even if their bodies had decayed over time and not mummified, they still would have been killed. By studying them, we can learn more about their lives, their society and even respect and feel sad about the way they were treated at the end of their lives. I don't think it would have been unsettling to show the Maiden and how her hair was braided - it would have been honoring her, remembering her. We aren't stamping our approval on what her people did to her when we remember her - of course we think it was terrible. But nothing we do now can change what they did, so why not remember her?

You don't plan on having a open casket funeral are you?

That's an awesome family story!

SECONDING

I agree. I haven’t found a single video or article on ancient middle eastern hairstyles other than Egyptian, which are usually just saying that Egyptians wore wigs. It’d be awesome to see hairstyles no ones addressed before!

I've got a chrome window going with 25 tabs on ancient Syrian hair, so stay tuned...

Egypt is in Africa. That’s why they wore wigs....curly Afro hair

The difficulty with that is there is not much of a record of what the styles were actually like, beyond basic descriptions from the Romans or some such. Will have to put in a lot more work before a video like that could be made.

Silvousplaits either way, I’m still looking forward to future ancient hairstyle videos! They’re so interesting and put together, so any ancient civilization would be fascinating.

I was just visiting Brazil last month! Beautiful country :) I don't do much for curly hair right now because I don't have curly hair myself and it's hard to get other models to come be in a video for me. If there comes a video I really want to do though for curly hair I'll try to make it work.

Depending on how curly your hair is you can do pretty much any up style or braids.It may not look 100% exactly like the style on straight hair but it will work.Curly myself but never let it stop me from trying a style.

@@silvousplaits I would absolutely 100% let you perform historical magic on my curly hair.

I don't know if you saw it, but she did a video on Greek hairstyles - they are all better for gloriously curly locks!
