My hair is so straight that it would never hold a braid alone. If I had been alive then, my hairdresser would have used all the thread in Rome to put my hair up.
That's hysterical! However, one thing that is interesting that she discovered in her work is how they used thread to "stitch" braids so you might have been ok after all!
She helped a lot to start the work on a blind spot. I'm very interesting in the Cultural Studies on History, so she is invaluable, and surprisingly under the radar
This is wonderful. How difficult were these styles to disassemble? I wonder if specific techniques weren't devised as shortcuts to create beautiful styles that were easily removed.
Janet has done some fascinating research about the connection and influence of African braiding on Roman hairstyles. She gave workshops on it in Houston. Maybe we can get her to create something for our channel!
She looks more like an archeologist than a hairdresser... Despite the passing of time, human hair wigs are still expensive, even if they are homemade and synthetic of a decent quality is over $ 100 when not in the sales
It's been about a decade now that I've been seeing Janet's recreations. Ground breaking work
I think this is her best presentation yet, very informative and well illustrated by her thorough research.
She is amazing, isn't she!
An ancient hair expert with such a cool contemporary hairstyle themselves! Absolutely adorable
WE AGREE!

This was SO interesting and well-explained. Thanks!

We love her work because many historians said that these hairstyles didn't really exist. She proved them wrong!
My second time to hear her present on the topic. Delightfully informative.
I could hear this woman talk for hours. Great history lesson!
Very interesting! Thoroughly enjoyed your demonstrations, especially the sewn hairstyle at the end!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent work thank you
really cool and informative, I loved the demonstrations.
It's so beautiful hair art! I love, what are you doing.
Glad you like it! It's time for us to have her back again!
Just saw this woman's name in a TikTok

Nice informative video, the history must be told.
Excellently done. I'm watching this as research for a book (fiction). Much appreciated!
How exciting! Please share your progress!
Fascinating!!

She is indeed a PhD... Professional hair Dresser 😏
We can't heart you enough!
Wonderful Information
9:10 amazing
Nobody had straight flimsy hair in antiquity? Just wondering. That would never work with the hair me and many of the people I know have.
Eventually, hair for people in Northern latitudes becomes straighter and lighter in color.
If you watch Janet’s channel, she has Roman styles for straight hair.
Gracias
They found mass graves of red heads and blondes in Egypt, a massacre, I wonder how they wore their hair too? Have you looked into that Janet?
Honestly, None of your Roman hairstyles look right. They CAN be done exactly like the sculptures show, but you don't do them correctly.
