#hairstyle tutorial

New Tolkien cosplay/shoot alert ✨🌳🏰🌊! I've wanted to do a closet cosplay of a Númenórean OC since S1 of Rings of Power, so here it is at last, from August 2024, the first set of pics of my Mediterranean astrophysicist self as an Armenelos court astronomer (meneldilmë)/erudite OC 😄🔭⌛🌌🪐. Here featuring an hourglass (Númenóreans are also pretty stressed about time as a concept, aren't they😅), alongside sextants and planispheres and books and things 📚📜 Dress and belt are from Armstreet's Princess in Exile collection (not sponsored, i wish xD). The decoration gives me both Númenórean and Noldorin aesthetic vibes ✨💜.

The hairstyle is inspired by Eärien's main look in S1 of RoP. I interpreted it as two 3-strand side braids with purple parandas, tied at the back of the head with an elastic and then forming a half-up braided bun. When wrapping the braids around the elastic, I started wrapping both braids twice or thrice, then added a hairstick to fix them, and the rest of each braid is twisted around the hairstick more loosely, letting one of them hang a bit below the bun, similarly to how Eärien wears them. Finally, I used this blue beaded necklace as decoration, tying the strings around and behind the braided bun.

I've missed a couple days, but i suppose that a blog isn't exactly a daily thing, is it?

I have tried out some new, super cute hairstyles over the last few days and i wanted to share them with ya'll! (｡•̀ω-)b

This first one required me some work in the evening. (heatless curls) i parted the hair down the middle then split the two sides in about 1/3rds horizontally. I curled the top part and took it out in the morning! Made it into pigtails and topped it off with a cute headband, leaving some curled strands infront.
