MEDIEVAL FALSE HAIRPIECE TUTORIAL
for fashionable 14th century braids

I have thin, medium-length hair making recreating those fabulous braided hairpieces from medieval art all but impossible. fortunately, we know that false hair was used back in the Middle Ages, so we can use it too.

Here I show you how I made a pair of false braids.
