Final Evaluation

Redheads and Royalty has been a very interesting and challenging project for me as in the beginning I didn’t like hair as much however towards the end I must admit that I quite enjoyed myself. Looking at the Elizabethan era and exploring into the history of hair was really fascinating as I learned about the facts that I had no clue about. On the other hand researching about contemporary hair that references Elizabethan hairstyles was amazing as to how top fashion designers and makeup artists are influenced by this specific style in recreating fashion, looks and hairstyles today in the 21^st century. After all the research coming up with my three final designs was a challenge as there were so many inspirations out there.  Once I got it and also got paired for the timed assessment the journey of creating the contemporary Elizabethan hairstyle reached the climax. I was pleased with my partner as we both communicated with each other really well and managed to get three practices each before the final timed assessment. Creating another person’s design was a challenge for me as the other person would have expectations on how they want their design to look. I was really nervous about this as I wanted my partner to be pleased with what I did. I was happy with how she created my design and so was my partner. In conclusion I really enjoyed the Redheads and Royalty journey as I overcame my fear that I wasn’t good with hair and learned that with practice it is possible.
