The plebeian coil bun with a headscarf over it is literally how I wear my hair all the time

So thrilled I found your channel. As a retired professional myself, I just can't seem to put my brushes away. I love your well-researched information. Many thanks for sharing.

bodkins remind me of using pens to get an improvised bum in the library

Author Georgette Heyer sometimes described the heroine's hair as being "dressed in neat bands". Does this mean braids?

[@emilygilbeyful]

Ah so I am a pleb! I always wear my hard like that as bands dent my hair too much haha!

I love your videos! Could you please let us know of a good source for hairbodkins? I've looked for some similar to these and have been unable to find them.

I usually make my own hair bodkins using dowels, a pencil sharpener and sand paper. If you want to buy them, the search terms "laying tool" (embroidery) and "shawl pin", in combination with "metal", "wood" or "bone" should get you some hits. good luck!
