Review of Hair since September

I have enjoyed The New Elizabethan hair project we have been doing since we started in September. I found the historical element vey interesting as I had never really given much  thought to the history of hair and hair styling, and learnt some fascinating facts. I have particularly enjoyed creating styles using back combing and techniques crimping to give the hair volume, and enjoyed designing my own design and watching someone else carry out the practical assessment, as I feel this has helped me develope my skills as a designer and helped improve my communication skills.
I found learning french platts very frustrating at frst just because I found the tecnique very fiddly but having practiced alot I feel I have improved both in keeping the braids flat to the head and making them more even and neat.
I found time keeping much easier in the hair practical sessions than in the make up lessons, I thik this may due to the fact that I have much more passion creating hair styles and find it easier to concentrate.
One thing I definiteley need to improve on which I have touched on earlier in my blog is that I need to update my hair blog on a more regular basis and create a balance between the two subjects.. I also as wih the make up need to start referencing my sources using the Harvard method which I will be applying to all my future posts.

Anna's Timed Assessment, My Design

These are the photos taken of my design done on my hair by Anna for her timed asessment. I am really pleased with the way the hairstyle turned out for the assessment and I think Anna did a really good job, especially as the pearls were very heavy and this made them difficult to attach to the hair at the back and keep them in place and hidden. I think Anna has managed to keep the style very neat and it felt very secure when I was moving around.
