Method:
· 3 strands of hair
·
Plait normally 3 times
·
Gather a section of hair from the rest of the head
and add to the middle strand
·
Carry on plaiting as normal for one twist
·
Change the side the hair is gathered from, depending
which strand is being plaited
·
Repeat the process of adding more hair after each
normal twist
I found this quite a challenging look to create to begin with as I struggled with adding pieces of hair. The hand and finger placements were new to me and therefore tricky until I had practised.
I found one of the images below online, it made me think of Elizabethan hair which incorporated a French Plait. It reminded me of the Elizabethans mostly due to the style and colour. I think that the use of the red lipstick also made me think this.

Fishtail
Method:
·
2 sections of hair
·
Pass 1 small section of hair from 1 strand to the
other

Repeat the process the whole way down the head
The Christian Siriano look reminded me of an Elizabethan hairstyle as I have seen many portraits where plaits have been styled into an up do.
