Mane inspiration is just a few centuries away, and also?
Create a braid.
Braids, braids, and more braids.
If we could only pick one detail to represent medieval hair, it would have to be braids.
And, they come in so many different styles.
Just pull the front half of your hair to the back, separate into sections, and start plaiting.
Hair jewelry is definitely a thing
What could be better than a pretty braid?
One that’s adorned with sparkly jewelry.
Or, you’ve got the option to find actual hair accessories to complement your romantic braid look.
A bubble braid can easily substitute for a mohawk when crafted straight down the center line of your mane.
Today, we have something better: professionalhairstylists.
It’s complicated, but worth the effort.
Flower power
The crown braid is both traditional and pretty when it comes to medieval hair.
Crisscross the braids, then wrap the lengths around the crown of the head.
Add in a few flowers, though, and you’ve gone straight into gosh-darn-pretty territory.
Use faux blooms to thwart wilting in the summer heat.
It could be a lot of fun.
Specifically, a braided headband.
Maybe with a few gold rings.
All it takes to join in on the fun is the right braid.
Presenting the waterfall plait, named so because it looks like hair is flowing through the braid like water.
Pair with waves for a total romantic Renaissance feel.
Don’t stop there, though.
Weave the chain through and between the braids, creating a crisscrossed pattern of epic proportions.
Waves, braids, twists, and pretty accessories are all excellent ingredients for the ultimate romantic bridal hair.
Tuck in pearl or gem clips here and there, and the result is magical.
