This hairstyle might seem simple to our modern eyes, but back when long hair was a highly regarded beauty standard, girls enjoyed showing off the length of their braids, adorned with ribbons to optically trick the eyes of suitors into seeing even longer and thicker hair.

If you've tried adding ribbons to your own hair, let me know in the comments! I would love to hear from your experiences!
