Practising my final design

Due to my partner being absent I was unable to practise creating her final design so instead I created my final design on Charlie.
This is the look I chose to be created for my final assessment. Firstly I started by separating the hair into a T-section (a section at the front left, front right and at the back). I then left a small section of the hair out at the front of the head (both sides) and then crimped them and pinned them behind the ears using Kirby grips. I then created a small plait in the middle of both sections, leaving some hair left out at the front and at the back. I got two pads, pinned one into the plait on the left side and then repeated the same on the right using Kirby grips as this helped to keep the padding in tightly and then I back combed the rest of the hair on both sections. I gently brushed all the hair over the pads making sure there were no gaps showing and used hair from the front and the back to help cover it all. I then curled all the lose hair left over after brushing it back over the padding and I pinned all the curls up, again using Kirby grips so they dangled down the back. With the rest of the hair at the back I tied it into a basic ponytail with a hair band and then back combed the hair in the ponytail in small sections. With each section I then tucked it under and pinned it using Kirby grips to create a big bun. To finish I used a little bit of hairspray to keep all the hair in place.
