Good evening,

and welcome back on the channel!

I hope you're all having a lovely year so far.

I wanted to start 2023 with a new hairstyle video.

And this time I will show you

a Renaissance inspired hairstyle

that we could see during

the 16th century in Europe

and that involves hair lacing / hair taping.

It is quite simple.

So I picked one of my 2 doll heads

the one that has the longest hair.

It is a quite tricky hairstyle

to do on short or curly hair

so if you have shorter hair than this

you may want to add extensions.

Here it's barely long enough

but it should be OK.

So let's have a look at what we will need.

So of course a comb and a brush

to get smooth hair before we begin.

A few hair clips,

very basic.

Just to hold the braids

before we start stitching.

Of course you're going to need a ribbon.

You can choose any ribbon youd like.

Just make sure it's long and strong enough.

So cotton or satin would be just fine.

Try to avoid silky and thin ribbons like this

it's not strong enough

and it would slip on the hair.

Since we have blond hair here,

I don't want a color that would be too light.

So black, blue or red would be pretty.

And you will also need a needle.

Of course you don't want it to be sharp

here is a very blunt one.

So now it is time to detangle the hair

before I start the hairstyling.

And if you're doing this

one someone else's head

which will be much easier actually,

you can also do a scalp massage.

It's not really tangled.

Alright,

I think I can use the comb directly.

There is a tiny knot here.

Good.

Alright.

It looks fine.

Alright, perfect.

Now I'm going to simply part the hair

right at the center,

on the top of the head.

And I'm going to do the same

at the back.

Alright.

And now I'm going to make

very classic braids,

one on each side.

And I'm going to start them

right behind the ear.

If the hair is quite short,

just like here,

start the braid as high as possible.

Here we go.

So here I chose to make

a classic 3-strands braid

but you can do any braid you like:

rope braid, fishtail braid...

Maybe a rope braid would give you

a bit more length.

Alright, now I'm going to

clip it on the top of the head.

Here we go.

Now I can make it a bit fluffy.

And I'm going to do the same

on the other side.

So one...

Two...

And three strands.

Starting the braid as high as I can.

And same I'm going to clip it

on the top of the head.

And now I can adjust it

a little bit.

Alright.

Now if you have long

or very long hair

what you can do

is cross the braids together at the back

and then clip them on the top

so you would have

a full hair crown at the back.

But here I will keep it simple.

Alright.

And now we can have a bit of fun

I'm going to take my needle

and the ribbon.

Again make sure this is long enough,

you need at least...

I would say 2 meters,

7 feet.

And I'm going to start at the front,

at the base of the braid.

If the braids are crossed

you can start directly into the braids here

at the back of the neck.

Now I'm going to pull my ribbon,

leaving a bit of length.

So I can wrap it around the head.

Looks good.

And now I'm going to stitch the ribbon

around the braid.

Making sure I'm going along the scalp

with my needle.

Or else it won't hold very long.

Alright.

Let's keep going

and try to get my stitches as even possible.

Alright.

Now I can remove the first clip.

And take a bit of the other plat

into the next stitch.

As you can see it is quite easy to do

on someone's head.

But much more difficult on your own head,

and it requires a bit of practice.

Now I'm going to do the middle stitch.

And here, to secure the 2 plats

I'm going to make a back stitch

so we will have a little cross

on the top of the head.

Here we go.

And I will keep stitching

down to the other side

always starting on the front

and pulling at the back.

I can remove my second clip.

Alright, one last.

At the base of the plat.

Maybe I should have ironed

my ribbon first.

We don't want it to be twisted.

Alright, so now we have 2 remaining ribbons

and what I'm going to do is

to wrap them around the head.

And then you can tie them

on the top of the head

or depending on the length,

at the back.

Just as you like it.

It will secure the whole hairstyle

especially with short hair.

Let's tuck the ends

under the ribbon.

And that's it.

Depending on the era, the country,

the social class,

some ladies would then put

a coif on their head.

But I think this is a lovely hairstyle

that doesn't really need to be hidden.

I hope you enjoyed this video

and as always

I wish you a very good night.
