On Monday, 17th November, I had the opportunity to practice my partners design before we had our assessment. We had practiced it previously to try to adapt it slightly & make any necessary improvements that were needed. This was really helpful because it gave me a chance, as a stylist, to see what would work in my models hair & how her design would give an overall look. I started by sectioning off the hair to the necessary places. I then french plaited down the middle of the hair into a V shape and then started to frizz her fringe to add texture to the padding. Here's how it went;
I placed the padding in Jay's hair & backcombed her hair over it to try to cover it, however, where Jay's hair is so thin, it didn't work too well as you can see in the pictures so our tutor gave us some crepe hair to work with. This is was actually a perfect match to my models hair so it just made it that bit simpler for us!
Unfortunately, my partner forgot to bring in the pearl necklace that she wanted for decorations in her hair so we improvised & used a similar necklace to resemble the pearls position & how they would be placed. She also had some pearl hair pins ordered but they didn't arrive in time for the practice run.
I believe I have a very good understanding of my partners hairstyles and I know exactly what she would like it to look like & how to do all the techniques that she requires. We had a meeting previously to go through the techniques that she wanted in the hair to make sure that I was confident with doing them all. Luckily, I was. I believe my partner has a lot of confidence in me so this makes it easier for the both of us.
