Personal Evaluation

Looking back at when we first got the brief and started the course I didn’t think my skills would get as far as they have done. I am confident in what I have achieved and overcome throughout this first term.

When I was partnered with George I was nervous on what I was going to be able to achieve due to the shortness of his hair. However, I am really glad I was partnered up with him as we have worked tremendously well and I feel my skills on working on a male have enhanced greatly as I had never had the chance to work on a man before.

The difficulties I found I have overcome are the basic sectioning of the hair, making sure the the 'rats' have been put in the right place and getting the whole look even, I did seem to struggle with this at the beginning, but found that after practice and confidence in myself building that I have achieved this; through my work I have shown the skills that we have been taught. 

It was hard at the begging also when partnered with George, as I feel that he wasn't confident enough and got a bit stuck in his head but, however, its nothing that couldn't be sorted, we always communicated so if there was a problem we would try and sort it out then and there so we understood each others doubts and fears. I feel this has also helped in the long run as the end result for both of us have I think been great.

It has been brilliant learning new techniques working on different hair types and getting the traditional looks we have researched and creating something new from our imagination; just through the means of research and testing them out in the class.

If I could do anything again with my design it would have been to try and stick to my original idea of using a larger ship instead of using two small ships as an accessory; I have no other changes I would make to the actual hair design as I feel very confident on how it looked and how it kept the traditional feel of Elizabethan beauty. 

Overall, I am happy with the look that I had created and how George portrayed this in my hair and vice-versa; we overcame our fears and struggles and managed to create two beautiful new looks for the New Elizabethan era.
