Hair:

Steps:

• Apply heat protection

• Brush through well

• Do middle parting

• Part hair in 3 sections-> I on each side at the front for curling and one big one at the back which will be used for the bun

• At the back: take a small section of the bun section (on the top) to incorporate later in the nest, section the small section into 2 and plait both of them tightly ; section bun section into 3 sections-> 1 big middle one to do a twist, left and right smaller ones which will be plaited (take them a tiny bit apart->look is supposed to look a bit messy) and will be later wrapped around the twist bun part; take middle section and create a twist-> wrap it loosely around itself to create a bun shape but pin it very tightly so it won’t fall apart!; then take left and right section and plait-> take a bit apart and wrap it around twist; try to create a big bun, secure with pins and try to hide them as good as possible(but if not it doesn't matter that much as the model will wear a veil over it )

• Go back to front: put hair spray in before curling-> better hold; curl front sections-> around 4 sections on each side, do nice ringlets; pin curls and leave them to cool down( maybe it would be the best to do the ringlets before doing the bun so they have enough time to cool down)

• Place nest on the right side of the head(right side if you stand behind the person)and pin it in tightly-> add the 2 plaits into nest-> weave through the twigs and pin them

• Take pins out of the curls and comb them up to create messy curls

• Apply a bit of baby powder to make hair look dry->not too much because the look is supposed to be not too long after her almost wedding

• Place some dried rose petals and leaves into the hair

• Pin in the veil-> veil is covering all of her head and a bit of forehead
