My final hair design.

According to my research a popular hairstyle that was worn on a Victorian woman's wedding day was `The Gibson tuck`. I have chosen to use this as a starting point of my Miss Havisham hairstyle.

It is a simple delicate, soft, romantic looking hairstyle, that suited my technicality within hair well.

 Here the hair is in a center parting. Like the hair fashions in that era. I have put twists in the hair and the front of the hair has been pushed back to the sides. I have put a flower band in the hair like many women did on their wedding day it symbolizes innocence.

 To the side of the hair I have added some twists and pin curls. Adding some texture to the smooth hair. According to my research this hair style is historically correct. This is how my Miss Havisham's hair would of started out before the tragic news.

At the back of the hair I have created a Gibson tuck. a simple Victorian hairstyle worn by women of elegance, wealth, and class.

Decaying hair.

 To the side of my hairstyle I have added volume and texture by backcombing the hair. I also added a big Velcro hair roller at the crown of the hair to add volume. I pulled bits of hair out. My character's hair is like this as she sleeps where she drops. Why is her hair this colour? because her hair collects dust, cobwebs, and she is not getting any younger.I created this colour by using dry shampoo on the hair. As well as baby powder to represent that lovely stuff dandruff. I pulled  the front strands of hair curled them back combed them.

 To the back of the hair I have pulled parts of the tuck out, backcombed, and sprayed the hair to add color and to secure it.

At the front of the hair you can see I have curled and backcombed the front to add that messy look. I also wanted to show the dandruff effect. 

I have chosen this hair style as it is historically correct, and simple to create. Easy to destroy, and it is not time consuming. Therefore fits in perfectly for my timed assessment. It is also easy to recreate the same.

I will buy some fake flowers and will make them look grubby and old. I am also going to purchase a veil.
