- A survey of ancient Roman Men's hairstyles from Julius Caesar to Maximinus Thrax. With a demonstration of the "calamistrum" curling iron and hair singeing.

Hello Janet! I am a hairdresser and a Cosmetology instructor. I've just discovered your videos. They are so beautifully done! I am so pleased that there are people interested in the history of this wonderful art. Thank you for sharing. I will encourage my students to view your insightful videos.
You should do these on male models. I'd like to see how it's done. A guy with a cowlick too, I have a cowlick and I'd like to know how to get around it :[
Can you also do a segment on Ancient Greek Hairstyles for males? Those are really interesting as well.
this is ancient GREEK
Thank you! I'm planning a series of Ancient Greek styles too after I find good art images. Stay tuned! cheers!
Heheh, my hair is actually "naturally" roman. The hairs are pointed forward on the crown, also at the sides. After a shower, all I have to do is run my fingers, back to front on my head and I look like that statue of Julius Caesar - well minus the face heheh.
Superbly done. Excellent. I learned so much. Wonderful work.
Hair was expanding with the empire...Brilliant metaphor. Blonde became popular too...a good dye job.
These videos are incredible! The detail and research involved, shines through! Ancient Greece and Rome are my favorite periods - if only I could've stepped back in time for a day to see what it was like!
Anyway, thank you for this wonderful video! I learned a few things I hadn't known before!!
I dont understand that annoying sounds
Thanks for this historical video showing statues as sources! I love it!
Would you consider recreating the ancient Greek athlete's hair as seen on the Artemision Bronze of Zeus/Poseidon? Complete with archaic beard? I've always wanted to see it in real life.
The Greek metal drummer Themis Toli had a haircut that resembles the style of the bronze statue.
@jntvstp I absolutely will stay tuned! I'm a fan! :)
Cool channel, enjoyed this.
5:12 I would say the change in hairstyle in this period was influenced by a change in rulership, these dynasties originated from Northern Africa and the Levant where hair is naturally curlier.
I'm not weak, sensitive or spoiled.
Thanks.
This UA-cam contributor really knows her stuff! She is familiar with the documentary evidence as well as sculptural and art evidence (including the awesome Fayum encaustic paintings) As somebody who is doing a webcomic about the Severan Dynasty, I will be referring to these videos frequently!
Also, I guess imperial haristyles are one topic you can trust in the Historia Augusta!
These are so interesting!
Thanks for the information. Can you make a video about Greek men and women clothes?
The painting at 3:53 could be out of the pages of MAD Magazine.
Hey Janet, amazing videos! Have you considered the ancient Germans? They had long hair and took much care of it before going to battle...
Wow this is great!
Nice video
Many people say that I have this ancient haircut. Ironically, I study history
Interesting video! Why the annoying foghorn throughout, though?
I got a kick out of you using a ring mandrel in lieu of the calamistrum....
Makes me cringe when people think they had fades back then they did not have fades people.
Very well done, I am trying to identify the sons of Germanicus by hair, back to pincer counting,
Some people said I have hair like a Roman
The Phoenician Emperor Septimius Severus, who ruled the empire from 193 to 211, is a Phoenician Arab and not a Roman, as you say, and his name is on the Arc de Triomphe in Rome.
And he wrote in it (Severo Septimeo Arabico), which is a Syrian Arab.
As for Julia Damna, she is a Syrian Arab from the Syrian city of Homs, and her grave is still there, and she has some of her offspring.
She is the wife of the Empress Septimius and her son Caracalla, and she is the Arab family that ruled Rome, and Rona was in the shadow of this family of its finest.
Please be honest in conveying or narrating history
You must think that you're very clever!
Let's not clog my friend's email with this back and forth spammy convo anymore. The point is, her video was awesome, as are all of them.
I got the same hair as Marcus
It's funny how some of these examples look like millennial hipsters today.
I came out to have a good time and I'm honestly feeling so attacked right now
The anonymous man at the end MUST have been someone important, otherwise why make a statue of him?
At the moment I have medium length hair but I'm auditioning for a part in Julius Caesar next semester at University. To cut or not to cut? hmmmmmmm....
more about the how toos and how to get such hair cuts for is dudes who want to look like emperors
I recently read that the Biblical admonition not to shave the sides of the head may have been due to a Pagan priesthood who wore a hairstyle that represented the sun? Can you speak to that, or is it a legend to lend authenticity to the edict?
Great video. Glad im not barbaric and have my black colored hairline and always a clean shave. Lol
As for the head hair. So I say why all the Syrian Arabs who brought out civilizations had their heads twisted and coarse hair, even Abraham, Isaac, Ismail, Joseph, Moses, David, the red-haired, twisted and coarse, his son Solomon, and Jesus had coarse hair.
No real life models?
I see bobbed noses were very popular at the time. The hair is very good. However their standard of plastic surgery was appalling.
It's interesting to note that once the hairstyle for men degenerated as time went by, so did the Roman society.
Oliver W. Holmes how so? it ended with a short and cropped utilitarian style. by the way, all of these are considered short for the time period they were in. Please don’t distort history with your current bias
These ancient Romans look exactly the same as generic white people do today. They don't have any distinct ethnic appearance.
@Samy Nia It's useless to debate the ethnicity of the Romans, because they had no concept of race. Portraying Romans in movies and such as various races makes far more sense then portraying them as only white. The Romans were a cosmopolitan people, they didn't care what the color of your skin was if you were wealthy and/or had citizenship. If only people like you had that same view...
They are the same people of European and Mediterranean ancestry of today which intermingled with each other for millenias
The concept of beauty was beauty itself: you had it or not
But oriental race and sub sahariani race were absent in those times.
The only darker people's were the semitics and in a rarer instance the Ethiopians who are not genetically similar to the sub saharians
@@angelabender8132 i know what you mean. but i think it is due to how well made the statues are. the small details really sell that realism. other non-white civs never had the level of stone carving skill white races had. and because of that the statues and paintings the non-european/med races made just look unreal and too abstact to define racial characteristics.
You can say that about any ethnic group, especially when there's only literal statues of them
