CHARACTER 3 - FAUXHAWK

To create a large fauxhawk, I will need to incorporate a hairpiece to add volume to the hair. To ensure the hairpiece matches my models hair, I will need to texture the hair using a suitable method. Below is a collection of methods I could use to achieve a black/ afro hair texture.

Steaming the teased hair. Beeswax to seal the ends.

Once the hair is textured, I wil experiment with different ways of creating a fauxhawk.

I intend to try a french plait styled fauxhawk, and secondly I will attempt to create marley braids- an afro textured hairpiece which I can then twist into a rope braid, as shown in the images above.
