A Victorian french pleat development.

 We learnt how to create french pleat as many Victorians wore this style. We could use this as a starting point to make a big shape in the hair. As Miss Havisham may of had big hair due to lying around around and not brushing it to tame it.



Here is the back of my classical french pleat. Volume created using padding, and backcombing.
 I added pin curls at the front of the hair to add a extra Victorian element.
From the front this look is a strong, sophisticated look.
I can use this as my starting point for my Miss Havisham. Playing about with colour,texture, and props.

I am not sure if I want to use this for my hair style. As it is very time consuming.
