Trialling an Elizabethan hairstyle

Here, I practised creating the above design plan on my own hair. 

To create this style, I separated the front portion of my hair and produced two French plaits around my hairline in opposite directions, intertwining red ribbon within them both. With the tails of the two plaits, I wound them back around the top of my head in a spherical shape, knotting the ribbon in a bow at the nape of my neck.

With the remaining loose hair, I sectioned it into four parts and curled each one into a large pin curl formation, fastening flat against my head using hair grips. 

Unfortunately I didn't have the necessary products or tools to fashion this look properly however it's given me a greater understanding of creating the Elizabethan styles and the looks I am able to achieve.
