If you are as naturally untalented at hair as I am, yet insist on participating in a career that consistently one-ups itself in hair complexity, join me as I oversimplify roughly 400 years of hair styles to make 3 modern headbands.
As promised, here is an excellent video to learn more about French hoods: • Tudor French Hoods || ...

Ваша идея с ободками совершенна очаровательна. Их можно использовать даже на работе, каждый день. Сидишь в офисе, делаешь накладные, отчет и чувствуешь себя венецианской дамой:)) Личная сказка каждый день))

I really do love the whimsy of your videos. They always give at least a nod to history, but often in ways you can wear in modern times. I also love how you always use up these little bits of fabric in some creative ways. Great as always.

Cotton twill tape may not be historically accurate, but it works really well. It's what I use when I am taping my hair.

Good morning from Australia, again. I do so enjoy your videos, partly owing to the skills on show and partly to your wonderful sense of humour. When you put the band's on I thought once again how a headpiece adds to one's appearance. Do you think hats will ever come back into general use? This is the only era when hair covering of some sort is not used in Western societies.

Hello!! And thank you!! I’ve noticed more hat activity over the last couple of years, likely thanks in part to an abundance of historicism in popular fashion. I completely agree- I think head coverings have a huge impact on an outfit, and while I doubt we’ll ever see anything as widespread as previous eras, the benefit is that we can pick and choose head coverings from ANY era. I’d say it’s win/win!

I would not have cut the excess hair-I’d have really tried to incorporate as much of it as possible as it adds to the authentic look.

True. I also thought after I could have had the hair coming upwards as it would be if it was actual rooted hair. Ah well, next time!

OK I was good right up to the point before you cut away 3/4 of the french hood... then it was just sad.

I was sad about the French hood, too.I had visions of wearing a fabulous velvet bonnet around, but it had a very weird curve/angle situation to the back that I just couldn’t figure out. I may try it again because a velvet bonnet still sounds fantastic.

@@anotherdreamgonewest you had made a frendh hood as worn my a merchant's wife you simply didn't have the full coif for underneath it... so you couldn't pin back the front of the hood to make it look like the ones in the paintings.
