Using further characteristics
from my bank of eccentric hair images, I created a hairstyle on my dolls head
at home which I then had to replicate in class. The hairstyle was shot as a
silhouette so shape was very important to the design of my hairstyle. I was
inspired by my final hair plan for Miss Havisham which had a lot of shape
created by tonging, frizzing and backcombing the hair.
Here is the
image I bought into class of my creation at home…
This original
style was far too contemporary and didn’t include enough Victorian detail.
Therefore, in class, I opted for a smoothed over top portion and included an
accessory to add to the silhouette’s formation. This is the silhouette I created in my lesson...
I am pleased with
this silhouette and I really love the detailing in the shape created from the
texture. I still feel it lacks the tradition of a Victorian hairstyle. To make
it adhere to the era more, I would bring the front portion of the hair forward
to resemble the generic style from my Victorian hair research.
