  • Hi Beautiful! This was one of my favorite videos to film ever. It was sooo hard to follow instructions that were written in the 18th century but I also learned so much about how to style hair in different ways that I didn't know about before. Overall such a fun challenge!

    My grandma was born in 1919, so she still had a lot of influence from the 1800's. She use to curl my mother's hair in the 1950's with torn strips of cotton bed sheets. She would just roll her hair up in the these rags and tie them into her hair when her hair was mostly dry, but still slightly damp after washing it and let it dry overnight. Apparently it was miserable to sleep on. But it gave her cute little ringletts like Shirley Temple.

I love that you had the insight to think of how HE would have FELT in the 1800's knowing his work would be replicated and viewed by the world on CZcams! You are a thoughtful mind, Brad Mondo. :).

    Anyone who's interested in the whats and whys of the "pomade & powder" thing (or other aspects of 18 century hair care and styling): The lovely and wonderful Bernadette Banner has uploaded a video in September of this year in which the amazing ladies of American Dutchess not only explain but also demonstrate, how and why this procedure was used.
    Just to summarize it in a sentence or two: The pomade was a mixture of pig lard and mutton tallow, scented with (for example) clove and citrus oil, and the powder wheat starch. By mixing those in your hair the pomade reacts with the starch and makes it expand, and creates volume and a very sculptable consistency and texture.

    This was so entertaining to watch! I can’t even imagine how it really was (and felt, and smelled) in the 18th century.

      therachelsam has it caused damage to your hair? Is it hard to take out? Just curious seems like a lot of stress on the hair and head

      Ash Bath it’s heavy, not going to lie. For me, my hair is naturally curly, bordering on kinky/coily, so volume was not an issue and i did not need to backcomb or tease as much, but straightening and hair spraying it to death was a little traumatic on my strands. Over all, i’ve been as gentle as I can and my hair has stayed healthy.

      How did you become an opera singer? That sounds so interesting!

      C B I started singing classical music in high school, which is admittedly late for most professional opera singers, and auditioned for an undergraduate vocal performance program! Most people go on to get a graduate degree and spend time doing short programs abroad that are focused on producing operas and furthering study.

      You should make ur channel about how you've trained and stuff and how you get stage ready that would be so interesting!
