Modern Victorian inspired by AHS

TOOLS 
- Heated Rollers
- Clips
- Bobby Pins
- Hair Pins
- Pintail Comb
- Hairbrush

PRODUCTS
- Heat Protectant
- Hairspray

STEP BY STEP
- Spray heat protectant onto the hair.
- Do a deep side parting in the hair and section it off to just behind the ear.
- Use the red heated rollers in this front section, curling the hair away from the face to create volume.
- Then 'brickwork' the back of the head to just halfway down the head using the blue rollers.
- Finally use the white rollers to curl upwards from the nape of the neck to the blue rollers. 
- Let the hair set.
-Once set, let the hair down.
- Pin the two front sections away, you won't need them yet.
- Backcomb the crown lightly.
- Section the back into three, roll each section up and bobby pin into place just at the nape of the neck. Once each section is pinned up, use hairpins to perfect them so they look like one roll. 
- Take the two sections at the front out of their pins, use the natural curl to pull back and pin into place above the rolls.
- Hairspray to finish.










MY INTERPRETATION
I'm quite proud of the final hair look, I think that it still has the kept look with the messiness as well. I did find it difficult to get the rolls right, and I did need Lottie's help with getting the hair to roll up on itself, and then I used hairpins to make sure it looked neater. Another thing that I found difficult was making sure that the bobby pins were placed so that they couldn't be seen, which was tricky with the rolls. However I think that being able to see some of the bobby pins added to the messy look of the style, but if it was less messy then it wouldn't look very good. One element that I do really like about the style is the volume that the red rollers gave the hair, so that there is a lift at the root at the front.
