Initial hair designs

Here are the initial designs for my take on a contemporary yet historical Elizabethan hairstyle. On the right I have drawn a bun with a plat wrapped around it to decorate, this would be the contemporary element of the design. The historical element of this design is the heart shaped padding with curls to decorate on the top of the head, with the curls left down at the sides. The left design is more contemporary than historical. This is because there would be a big crimped/frizzed texture to the hair. The only historical element to this hair design would be the pearls used along the hairline/through the hair to decorate and the middle parting. When looking at these designs I think it is important to now look into finding a way to incorporate both of the designs, remembering to keep the final design as much historical as it is contemporary.
