Medieval and Renaissance hairstyles: how to create historical hairstyles<\/h2>\n

If you’re looking for a little hair inspiration, look no further than these iconic styles. While you may not be able to rock an exact replica, you can take cues from these looks to create a modern-day masterpiece.<\/p>\n

  1. The Beehive<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Audrey Hepburn made this style famous in the 1960s, but it has its roots in the medieval era. To achieve this look, women would pile their hair high on top of their head and secure it with beeswax.<\/p>\n

    While the beehive may not be the most practical style for everyday wear, it’s a show-stopping look for a special occasion. So if you’re feeling bold, give it a try!<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. The French Braid<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      This timeless style is perfect for anyone with long hair. To achieve the look, gather a section of hair from the top of your head and divide it into three equal sections.<\/p>\n

      Start braiding the hair, adding new sections of hair as you go along. Once you reach the end of your hair, secure the braid with an elastic band. Voila! You’ve just created a beautiful French braid.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. The Milkmaid Braid<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        This braid is similar to the French braid but has a few key differences. First, instead of braiding the hair from the top of the head, start at the nape of the neck.<\/p>\n

        Also, instead of adding new sections of hair as you braid, gather small pieces of hair from each side and incorporate them into the braid. Once you reach the end of your hair, secure the braid with an elastic band.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. The Topknot<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          This style was popular during the Renaissance, and it’s easy to see why. Not only is it super stylish, but it’s also incredibly practical. So if you’re dealing with a bad hair day or don’t have time to style your hair, a topknot is the perfect solution.<\/p>\n

          To achieve this look, gather all of your hair on top of your head and secure it with an elastic band. Then, if you want, you can wrap a small section of hair around the base of the ponytail to cover up the elastic band.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. The Fishtail Braid<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            This braid is similar to the French braid but has a few key differences. First, instead of three sections, you’ll start with two sections of hair.<\/p>\n

            Also, instead of crossing the sections over one another, you’ll alternate between taking small pieces of hair from one side and adding them to the other section. This may sound complicated, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll be able to create this beautiful braid in no time.<\/p>\n

              \n
            1. The Dutch Braid<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              This braid is similar to the French braid but has a few key differences. First, instead of crossing the sections over one another, you’ll be braiding them under one another.<\/p>\n

              Also, instead of adding new sections of hair as you braid, gather small pieces of hair from each side and incorporate them into the braid. Once you reach the end of your hair, secure the braid with an elastic band.<\/p>\n

              1. The Messy Bun<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                This style may seem simple, but it’s quite versatile. You can wear it high on your head or low at the nape of your neck. You can leave a few pieces of hair out to frame your face or pull it back into a sleek, polished look.<\/p>\n

                To achieve this look, gather all of your hair on top of your head and secure it with an elastic band. If you want, you can wrap a small section of hair around the base of the ponytail to cover up the elastic band. Then, start twisting and twirling the hair until it forms a messy bun. Finally, secure the bun with bobby pins<\/a>, and you’re done!<\/p>\n

                  \n
                1. The Braided Updo<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                  This updo is perfect for anyone with long hair. To achieve this look, simply French braid your hair from the top of your head to the nape of your neck. Once you reach the nape of your neck, gather all of your hair and secure it with an elastic band.<\/p>\n

                  Then, start braiding the hair, adding new sections of hair as you go along. Once you reach the end of your braid, secure it with an elastic band, and you’re done!<\/p>\n

                    \n

                  2. Create two braids on either side of your head, then criss-cross them in the back and secure them with a ribbon or scarf.<\/li>\n
                  3. Gather your hair into one big braid down your back. Add some flowers or beads for extra decoration.<\/li>\n
                  4. Tease your hair into a high ponytail, then wrap it around itself to create a voluminous “bun.” Secure with bobby pins and spray with hairspray.<\/li>\n
                  5. Curl your hair using large rollers, then brush it into loose waves. Finish with a light misting of hairspray.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
