- In this episode of Hair History we're diving into the most extravagant era of hairstyling in the history of mankind. If you think you've seen it all, just wait unti you hear what ladies from the age of baroque and rococo were up to! I'm also going to demonstrate how to do an authentic 18th century hairstyle on your own hair, not using any wigs or hairpieces.

Shout-out to Marie Antoinette's giant sailship mounted in her hairdo
The things you put your hair through for us! It just looks plain amazing, and pretty authentic to my untrained eye :)
As soon as you put the curling iron on that floured hair I wondered if it smelt delicious like bread baking lol
The bigger the hair, the closer to God. Or I guess the closer to the French Revolution.
While these hairdos were undoubtedly gorgeous, they always give me chills as they often reminded me of aristocrats getting their heads cut off!😖
Is was literally to do with status. That's why it has a competitive spirit to it.
😂 Well... if you were an aristocrat, you were on your way to meet God, so in that sense... 'the higher the hair, the closer to God'
The bigger your hair is, the more beautiful your head would look when chopped off
@@satanswife2546 lol
Gorgeous! I feel the pain of your hair, haha, because I'm totally paranoid about teasing: my hair doesn't get teased easily, and when it does, it's incredibly difficult to loosen back to its original form.
***** Taking it out was horrible haha, but it was worth it! :P
Tip : use (lots of) conditioner before combing them back.
Stop at 8:50 and you have the perfect Helena Bonham Carter hair! :D Great tutorial. Thank you! What a wonderful series.
AVADA KEDAVRA!
Not exactly Helena but Bellatrix
You look so darn good with this hairstyle it makes me wish it was the 1700s again! I wish I could wear my hair like this every single day LOL!
starlovestarlight I'd totally wear my hair like this if it was socially acceptable, haha!
Right down to the beauty mark!
She looks great with most of these period hairstyles. I like this one because with very thick curly hair with lots of body, it wouldnt require nearly as much teasing as most would need 😂 it was great to have in the 80s!
Do it and say that you're a Rococo Goth.
You truly look like from the 18th century! I love it!
today's hair styles need that kind of drama
My favorite one yet! Can't imagine how much work it was to brush and wash after. Lol!
Rachel Easley And how much conditioner was used to remove all tangles...
They had to use wire frames for their hair which required a great deal of pomade, as you said. However, the hair was not washed all that frequently and the pomade would go rancid. This caused skin irritations and an unpleasant smell. There was plenty of lice but everyone had lice and it was considered normal. Also, the wig powder that they would put on their own hair before putting on a wig had powdered gold in it and that made it quite expensive. Ladies did not let their hair down at night and so they had to sleep practically sitting up because of their hairstyles.
Where can I find more information on this? The internet has proven to be less than helpful...
@@jiltedlittle6868 that's because it's untrue. I'd recommend the podcast on the topic by American Duchess. They go into lots of detail and it's really well researched.
@@h0lda is that really true that everyone had lice at that time and it was considered normal?!?
This was very entertaining! My favorite time in history! I would love to make you a dress to go with that fabulous hair!
What I want to know is how long it took for you to get your hair back to its original state and how much hair fell out haha
You need to find a louse pick to show how to dislodge the lice in a finished hairdo. Kudos on your knowledge. You do a great job and make it interesting. I intend to watch more of your videos!
Omigosh this was amazing. You seriously put so much time and effort into the hairstyle and the research and it shows! This looked absolutely amazing great job!!1
7:56 I did the same expression.... omg POOR HAIR,NO!!!
Another wonderful video - thanks, Lucy! I can't imagine how much work it took to smooth out all that teasing - my hair would have been a complete disaster!
Omg I love these old hairstyles ssssooo much ❤️❤️❤️
excellent series, well done Lucy!! how long did it take you to untangle all the frizz?
I have a client that saves the hair from her brushes & even shower to "rat" into hair cushions. It actually works great for volume at the crown.....!!
That is my favorite by you so far!
You are gorgeous! Xx
This is insane. I admire your dedication!
This is amazing, Lucy! Thank you for showing us such a work of art, as well as giving historical info. =)
that video is awesome. But i don't wanna know, how much it hurts to brush that out
Wow! That looks difficult to do! xD I love this video series! Will you perhaps make a video on some asian hairstyles?
You should do some Lucrezia Borgia from The Borgias tv show hairstyles. I just love her hair in that show.
Absolutely love it! Thank you so much for the history lesson and the tutorial! The frizzing hair gets back to normal easily afterwards or should we use something to help it get back to its natural form?
+Thamy Darkangel Depends on your hair. For me it slips out even if I don't want it to, some others will spends hours carefully combing it out. Does your hair get tangled easily?
Ouch!!!😨😲. You look simply beautiful. What your hair goes through! You have a great face for that style.
Probably my favorite look. But holy cow..YOUR POOR HAIR😂🤣 THANK YOu !
I don't think I've seen anyone do this as well and as authentically as you!! I absolutely love this look on you it suites you quite well. By the way invest in a good boar bristle backcombing brush it will make your life SO much easier and keep you from getting carpal tunnel lol.
Lucy, you are insane - and so so awesome. I admire your dedication!
Now that's what I call a labor of love.
Does anyone have a hint what to do with hair that just doesn't react to teasing? No matter what I do and how long I do it, my (thick, slightly curly) hair just falls back into place as if nothing happened.
8:44 - me in the morning
Cute! I would love to see you do the Merveilleuse style during the Directoire period.
How fun! Thank you for making this video and sharing it with us! You're Wonderful :)
You look awesime with this hair.
As a man, I just have to say holy hell. I watched Elizabeth the golden age and was curious about how crazy hairstyles came to be. And its amazing the work ladies put in. Because men, most anyway, do the bare minimum. Unless theyre jersey shore types.
Actually, there were quite some epoches where men had to get their hair styled as well. All those locks and curls didn't come out of nowhere. Even my dad still slept with a hair net some decades ago to keep his natural curls in order
You should check male fashion from the 17-18th century. The complete opposite of the bare minimum lol
@Va Lin yep
giiiiiiirl, that looks amazing, such commitment! ;)
Just a suggestion if you ever do this again. I don’t think hair spray has enough “sticking” power for the flour. Even if you took hair conditioner and rubbed just a dollop between your hands and smoothed it over your hair I think would have provided the moisture for the powder. Also, baby powder works amazingly well to “whiten” the hair. Don’t ask me how I know, lol!
8:44 LOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLL
I absolutely loved this!
Hi Lucy, :)
I am trying to recreate this but I struggle at the point when your camera turns off.. I cant figure out what exactly you did as the next step?
8:46 the Helena Bonham-Carter-look :D
+Mme.Tenebrae To funny and I'm a Helena fan.
This is sooo amazing!!!!! You are super talented
Great job Lucy!
Your hair is full of secrets.. pardon, socks :)) looks lovely and very inspirational!
Loepsie! You still have that wooden comb :P
Excellent job!!
This is so interesting !
How did they used to dye their hair blonde? Or pink/purple/pastel colours? Was it a similar method to modern day bleach or different? Anyone have a video of this?
Im a guy. I dont know why im watching this but I enjoyed listening your narration.
Thanks for the video...would a farmer’s wife wear Hair this elaborate? I have a film shoot coming up and our family is a farm family just before the Revolutionary War....I’m assuming she wouldn’t but thought I’d ask....thanks so much!!! 💗
It would be fun if you showed us pictures of the other hairstyles you talk about in the video too :)
Ziya It's pretty hard to find contemporary visual material on historical hair styling- it's mostly just written accounts. I usually feel lucky when I find one picture that looks similar to what I did in the video, haha!
would make a great work do! lol your face while teasing was pretty hilarious!
where did you get all this info? it's helping me loads rn
I've fall in love with series, you should do more hairstyles from the 19 century
how do u get rid of teasing & powder...do u get a lot of breakage
Start at the tip if brushing it out, and soap or shampoo would remove the powder
Beautiful! :D
At first during this era, I thought the powdered wigs were made out of cooking flour and sheep fur. 😂
I'm laughing crazily at 8:44!
You're so talented
Your amazing !
Poor hair ! But the result is stunning.
Oh my Goddess, how long did it take for your hair to recover from the hair spray and teasing! 😲😲😲
I love these series! My God, I can only imagine the horror of taking this hairdo out haha. Looking forward to the next episode!
I'm curious what your background is in this area? Are you a hairdresser or hair historian? (Janet Stevens has a great channel on hair history).
+Golden Carter I'm just an enthousiast with a lifelong interest in art history :) I studied Celtic languages & culture and took some art history classes in uni, but that's it.
Those hairstyles were so popular that it made many people lose their heads.
you should definitely refill this.
Oh my goodness xx I love this
Amazing! I wonder how women back then managed to keep their hair long with all the teasing and products worn everyday, wow! Can ou please share where you got the instructions on the hairdressing? Was it on a book? online? Thanks, I'm loving these historical hair series =D
I think you could have used white hairspray to get your hair a lighter colour.
Wunderbar👏
cornstarch work's well as a hair power
Hair HerStory would be more appropriate for this series. 😎
How do you know this information?
Love it!
Gorgeous, love it, will do it for sure! !!
Omigosh all that teasing, your poor hair lol Lovely finished look though
Je connais ta devise: Toujours... Belle.
J'aime tes coiffures, que tu fais avec une grande adresse.
Surtout évite le coiffeur aux ciseaux coupants, et le pire le tatoueur,.
Le coiffeur et le tatoueur les deux pires ennemis de ta beauté, évite les...
Fort belle vidéo, plaisir de te voir, tu est si belle....
The future is now a place right to left the wild heart
I like Big Hair,The 80s were great for Big Hair.
***** wat font did you use in the video @9:55
Sometimes I wanna wear this style with to work just to see how people would react
I was in shock when I opened this video. Oh my word hahaha one word: POOFY. Lol.
I think the idea that women also wore white hair might have to do with Marie Antoinette having ash blonde hair that turned white very early in her life...
Awesomeness
The result was great. Do you know where to find pommede or pommade references? :) thanks.
It must feel so nice to wash all of that out!
You're sooo beautiful!!!!
1853
Umm umm what's that
actual tutorial starts 6:24
The point of the video is to talk about the history that's why it's called hair history
+Jayly Salmeron yeah I know but I just told everyone when the tutorial starts in case they came just for it..
КОРОЛЕВА! )
18th C predecessors of Dolly Parton
OMG I love you so much 18th century is the best
I want your hair!!!
Renaissance in the 17th century? Yeah right, that was a few centuries earlier ;)
Of course it was, but when it happened it sparked an interest in the classical era. The effects of that are felt all throughout post-renaissance history
Omg your poor hair lol hellloooo coconut oil mask
"Never before in history and after did we see such extravagance in hair dressing" you probably did not see the intricate and complex hairdressing of historical Asian cultures.
