How to Create a Victorian Hairdo
- 1). Brush out all the knots from your hair, underneath and on top, with a thick-bristled brush. Turn on the curling iron and allow it to begin heating up.
- 2). Bend over and put your head down. With your brush, gather all your hair at the top of your head in a ponytail, cinching the hair in your hand. Don't be overly concerned by a few strays. You can spray them into place later.
- 3). Stand up and slowly twist the ponytail in your hand. Don't tighten the hair too much because you want the hair to fall a little loose.
- 4). Wrap the ponytail hair around in a circle to make a bun at the top of your head. Secure it with bobby pins, hiding them as well as you can in your hair.
- 5). Stand in front of the wall mirror and take the hand mirror in your hand. Check the back of your hair for lumps or creases. If you see some, use the fine-tooth comb to gently smooth them out. (Start the entire process over if you find that this method doesn't smooth out any creases in your hair.)
- 6). Use the comb tail as a tool to pull a few hairs from around both sides of your temples. With the curling iron, turn these wisps into curls that hang in small ringlets. Do the same for loose hairs at the back of your neck.
- 7). Spray the entire hairdo with hairspray, from front to back. Use your mirror to check all sides of the hairdo. Add decorative combs to your hair at the left and right of your swirled bun.
