Contemporary Victorian Gothic Hairstyles


Rolls 

 

Products used:

  • Curler
  • Pintail comb
  • Grips
Method
To begin with, separate the hair at the front into 4 sections. The two on the left will curl towards the left and the two on the right will curl towards the right, and so do this and pin the curls to the head so that they cool in that position. Next, leaving the sides of the hair, curl the back of the hair in a brickwork fashion all the way to the bottom (Curling downwards). Lastly, with the sides of the hair, separate into 5 sections like in the photo, and curl towards the face. 

Updo hairstyle
 


Products used
  • Pintail comb
  • Grips
Method

Firstly, remove all grips from the back and side curls. Combine the top and middle curls at the back to create a small bouffant style look. Then take the curls at the bottom and twist them towards the head and then inside themselves and grip to the head so it looks like in the photo. Then take the side curls and combine them together and twist the ends and into themselves and make them flow with the twisted curls already there. Lastly, take the grips out of the curls at the front, and pull the outside ones and curl the end with your fingers and grip to the head. Then do the same with the inside ones but place them above the outside ones. 


Voluminous hairstyle
Products used:
  • Paddle brush
Method
Take out all the grips from the previous hairstyle and brush the hair out with a paddle brush, making sure they you bring the brush in at the end of the hair. This will create this big, waved hairstyle. 











Original curls
Method
For this look, you just have to shake the head vigorously so that the curls come back out.

Dark Eyes and Lips

 

Products used

  • Illamasqua Neutral palette
  • Cryogen Brilliant Colour Medley 
  • MAC 217 brush
  • Thin brush
  • Eyeshadow brush
  • Mascara
  • Disposable mascara wand
Method
Begin with the gold colour in the neural palette and apply to the inner corner of the lid and the middle. Next, use the brown in the brilliant colour medley and apply in the crease and outer corner of the eye, working inwards so that there is a gradient and it is darker on the outside. Then apply black from the neutral palette on the outer corner to darken the gradient. After this, take the angled brush and use black again to line under the eyelashes. Lastly, apply mascara to the top and bottom lashes.

Light Scarring and Moulds

 

Products used:

  • Moulded gelatine scars
  • Prosaide (contact glue)
  • Pro-clean (to remove)
  • Witch Hazel
  • Cotton buds
  • Wound filler
  • Supracolour
  • Fake blood




Method
Put prosaide on a cotton bud and place on the bottom of the moulded scar and on the skin where the mould is going to be placed. Wait for the glue to be tacky and place the scar on the skin, pressing very hard so that it is completely secure. Next, put witch hazel on a cotton bud and rub along the edges of the mould so that they look as if they are part of the skin. Once this is done, you can fill the middle with wound filler, supracolour and fake blood (I used black supracolour to give the effect of thick, fresh blood) and red supracolour on the outside and then flicked fake blood around the wound.
