This video is about very early 20th century makeup and big hair. I do my face up in an early Edwardian style and show you my favorite hairstyle using a big hair cushion. My hair is below my waist and in this video curled but this hairstyle works well on straight hair and shorter hair as well.


If you have thinner hair or your hair is much shorter I'd recommend using hair extensions for the bun and you can also wrap fake hair around the cushion to prevent it from showing.


My cushion is 15x2" rectangle and a 28x5" rectangle sewn together, stuffed and whipped together from the bottom edge at the back. You can use a smaller cushion just make sure it stretches to your head and won't pop off.
