OUTLAW KING looks great, love the period...and the subject!
ReplyDeletewe do love epic adventures
DeleteI think they sound good, but you are right about that hair. It's a total ball of ewww!
ReplyDelete'tis the medieval do! They probably felt lucky if they did not have lice, da style was of second importance :)
DeleteThat's another way to look at it. I'd suffer through ugly hair back then too if it meant no critters running amok on my head.
Deleteyou know ladies did not wash their hair back then? According to scientific theories you don't need to wash it at all, like never, if you comb it carefully a few times a day, thus we always see maids combing the long tresses of their mistresses in mediaeval movies
DeleteI wash mine twice a week, or after working out because I sweat a lot. I don't want sweat hair so shampoo is my bff on those days.
Deletecombing apparently cleanses away everything from the hair itself, I just wonder how they did not have itchy scalps, but then again they did not bathe a lot either, queen Elizabeth was considered overly tidy for bathing four times a year! People did not even have a habit of washing their hands throughout history. Women died in massive percentage at childbirth because doctors did not care to wash their hands before the procedure until late 18th or even 19th century methinks.
DeleteThey didn't have the hair products back then that we have that cause build up though. Hair spray, gel, heat protectant. Hell, even shampoo builds up on the hair. Once a month I put a big of baking soda in my shampoo to strip all the ick out. If only I could brush it away, my grocery bill would be much cheaper lol
Deletewell, force Ally into being your entourage lady who will comb it for you five times a day :)
