Course Description
“Textured Sculpture” teaches you how to
incorporate braids using eight simple sections. In this lesson, braid on an angle to allow
volume and shape through the crown area. Learn how to utilize padding under the crown at the
occipital area and easy techniques to cover the padding. Use directional
placement to create shape, texture and asymmetry while leaving workable texture at
the front for volume if needed.
- Loosely
braid the middle of the three back sections.
- Braid the
remaining hair of the middle section, loosen apart and secure the
braid as done in the previous step.
- Working at
the nape of the neck, wrap the fi rst braid around the padding and
secure behind the ear using pins for volume.
- Working with
the three braids above the hairpiece, wrap them loosely over and
around the hairpiece and secure them behind the left ear. Leave ends
out to fan behind the ear.
