In honour of the @olivierawards last night, here is a throwback to a Wicked-inspired shoot I did a couple of years ago. I had a lot of fun turning @disabled_eliza into Elphaba (peep the matching green spokes on their chair!)

Hair play day 👑
I had a play with creating a Victorian style and practising my hot sticks set ✨️
I used mainly bigger bendies for this set and smaller ones on the front to create a curly, fluffy fringe.
I used two switches for this look, one plaited with hair dressed over it to act as padding and another which Caitlin and I hot sticked and dressed out at the back to create the shape and add length to Ellie's hair.
If I were to do this again, I'd make the curls more ringlety and add some accessories, such as flowers or a decotirate hair pin which were popular during the Victorian era. I'd also work on symmetry of the rolls which create the bun.
Thank you to @caitlinobeirnemakeup and @elliecannings for your advice and the use of the pieces (and your head!)
