I'm working on Costume College hair! Yesterday I washed and conditioned my ancient but really nice big hairpieces for buns. Today I used copious amounts of leave in conditioner and brushed them and twisted the big one for the gala and braided the less big one for the tennis dress. I haven't been able to fully unbraid the less big one for years, but I spent ages on the top tangles and was finally able to fully unbraid it. They look so good!
Now I'm working on Regency curls. Yesterday I braided a long braid and the plan is to sew curls to to the front of it, wear the braid like a headband, and wrap the back around a bun type thing. Wish me luck with the curls. I've had them work perfectly once and not since! I have loads of weaving hair though, so many chances!
Here's what I'm going for:
