  • Hi Beautiful! This was one of my favorite videos to film ever. It was sooo hard to follow instructions that were written in the 18th century but I also learned so much about how to style hair in different ways that I didn't know about before. Overall such a fun challenge!

    My grandma was born in 1919, so she still had a lot of influence from the 1800's. She use to curl my mother's hair in the 1950's with torn strips of cotton bed sheets. She would just roll her hair up in the these rags and tie them into her hair when her hair was mostly dry, but still slightly damp after washing it and let it dry overnight. Apparently it was miserable to sleep on. But it gave her cute little ringletts like Shirley Temple.

    Anyone who's interested in the whats and whys of the "pomade & powder" thing (or other aspects of 18 century hair care and styling): The lovely and wonderful Bernadette Banner has uploaded a video in September of this year in which the amazing ladies of American Dutchess not only explain but also demonstrate, how and why this procedure was used.
    Just to summarize it in a sentence or two: The pomade was a mixture of pig lard and mutton tallow, scented with (for example) clove and citrus oil, and the powder wheat starch. By mixing those in your hair the pomade reacts with the starch and makes it expand, and creates volume and a very sculptable consistency and texture.

      Elle-Iza Logan I loved that video! And also kinda shook at what a good job Brad did having none of that info... tho he obviously has an intense working base of hair dressing knowledge so that helps. This is seriously art. I wouldn’t complain if I saw this out and about...

      I used to be same whenever I saw these old-fashioned letters. 😅Took me ages to realize that the s is just looking like an f. But it's somehow fun sounding like the cookie monster - forry I mean cookie monfter. 🤣

      There's a video somewhere on UA-cam that talks about the 6 or so letters we dont use any more and the f s thing is one of them.
