Bridgerton season 3 is soon out, and the trailer has made us even hungrier for more, to not starve ourselves we’ve broken down the insane work behind Bridgertons queen charlottes wigs, to feed our appetite. We’ve been hearing speculations about a potential Bridgerton Queen Charlotte season 2..Hopefully we’ll get it

I absolutely love that they made her wigs look like afro textured hair styled like that instead of a non textured hair. Also, my favourite scene of all of the Bridgerton universe so far was the last scene of Queen Charlotte when she went to go see George and announce the pregnancy. Made me cry so much

@@LYNNDANIELS-ki4cj thats why I said it that way. “Black hair” refers to the colour of the hair, afro is usually meaning the hairstyle. I try to be as knowledgeable as I can about the things I talk about.

Really? Well, here is a novel idea. Don't cast black faces to play white queens. And you don't need fantasy wigs to look like black racial hair. Let's paint it black was a song in the '60's and it's time we bury it.

the hairstyle is actually called "pouf aux sentiment", and popularized by Marie Antoinette & Rose Bertin, was basically the 18th century OOTD but with feelings/meanings as denoted by the accessories one can include in the wig for instance, on one occasion Marie Antoinette wore a pouf symbolizing celebrating as well as promoting vaccination in honor of her children being inoculated against smallpox

Anyone with African roots can have a kinky or curly hair texture. So the correct term to use is “Afro textured hair”, not black hair. Just like how we have Afro Latino people. They may not be directly black, but they have those black roots. They can also have kinky or curly hair. Would we say that they have a “black hair”? No, it’s Afro textured hair. In the future, you may want to use the proper verbiage ☺️ Other than that, I enjoyed the video!

From wig craft, costume or set design for movies to foods and different structures from all over the world.

Its astounding that so much time and effort was put into Queen Charlotte's hair, yet young King George walked around without a wig. That was unheard of for nobility. It's just so off-putting. As for the wig with moving parts, there were artisans in the 18th century who made automatons. So, it could be explained that the swans are moving thanks to a wound-up automaton device.

@@Greatful0374 Yes, she had some blood that could influence her looks but we have many accounts about her and her parents and grandparents, all painted and described as white Europeans. She may be biracial but it is a small precent of her ancestry and you should read more if you think that biracial equals not white. She had European looks and black Portuguese ancestors and nothing is wrong with that as long as people don't try to falsify history and paint her as someone she wasn't. Bridgertons is not the series I would look for historical accuracy and they make it obvious that they don't try to be accurate, they create it based on regency era fashion and modern fashion and art combined to create something different from any other series we've ever seen.
