Victorian Hairstyles (girls)

Hair should be a natural color and nicely styled, in keeping with the Victorian era. Add a coordinating hair accessory (optional) to complete the look! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to our Costuming Team.

Braids

Braided styles are a great choice for chin-length to long hair. 

Tips: Use hair bands and pins that are similar to your hair color for a clean look. Texturizing spray helps to bulk the hair up for styling, and finishing spray/hairspray helps to hold the style in place. 

Short/Chin-length Hair: Milkmaid braid look for shorter hair

Classic Crown Braid
“Dog Ears” - an easy, elegant twist on the braided bun

Rag Curls

Rag curls take a bit of time and preparation but do not require heat and will last until you wash them out. They look lovely pinned up on the sides, or in a half up half down style. There are a number of products available to twist the hair around, but we found that strips cut from an old cotton t-shirt work perfectly!
