Final Evaluation

I am very satisfied with the both assessments as well as how my skills and understanding of the Elizabethan hair developed. Just a few months ago I didn’t know much about Elizabethan hair and now I can the Elizabethan influence in so many things. This really fascinates me. I am very pleased how I improved my skills and techniques as well as the thinking and understanding in developing hair designs. I was first very worried that I wouldn’t be able to come up with something good but I am very pleased with my final result.

The assessments went both very well. When I had my practical assessment I was very concentrated and new exactly what to do. But that’s only because we had such a good teamwork and practiced and prepared a lot. I also appreciate the honesty we had, because we could say straightforward if we didn’t like how the other person did something or if we want to change anything. We were both also open for suggestions. This helps a lot with working in a team. I am satisfied with the outcome of Ruby’s design. Even though I struggled during the assessment with the curling because the hair was too soft and the front bit of the rolls, which was my problem all along. But I think using my self-made paddings the rolls improved actually and don’t look too bad. Ruby also did a very good job with my design. I  like how she did the wiggle plaits a lot. The only thing that wasn’t how I wanted it, were the rolls. They were too small and too neat. I wanted them bigger and a bit messy for the modern feeling. The frizzing at the front was also a bit flat. But overall I am very satisfied.
