The final assessment was a task to create your own design of a contemporary Elizabethan look. My partner showed me her final designs and these were practised on her twice before the final assessment. Her look was an interesting look which was a more messy and contemporary version of the heart shape that Elizabeth would've worn. My models hair is red with brown eyes which helped when it came to the final look to look even more Elizabethan. My partners design had four french braids going across the hairline at the front with large backcombed quiffs this was meant to look messy so it had a modern feel.
The techniques I used to create this were platting, backcombing, frizzing and crimping.
The whole entire back was crimped with the top section of the loose hair at the back being frizzed using the frizzing technique. I then backcombed the back even more to create more volume and shape.
Overall me and my partner worked well together to get our final outcomes. We were both punctual and worked well as a team to make sure our designs were exactly how we wanted them to be. I'm please with the outcome of my own practical as it was a lot more symmetrical than it had been in the past practices. I love the final image shots as I feel my model had a strong look which really showed through these images. The only thing I would've done to change the assessment was to use more frizzing at the back section but otherwise I'm really happy with my results. The task was fun and I enjoyed being the model and designer and also the role of being a hair artist to complete my partners design.
