Firstly, I have completed my burns assessment! The assessment had to be related to a house fire. So I decided to do one which is pretty common and that is the burns you can get from grabbing onto a burning hot door handle. I wanted to make it pretty horrific, so I chose to make it look as though the handle had burnt through some layers of skin and the fingers are basically frazzled! I'm getting so much more used to using all the products now, it's great fun. Hope yous like it :)

In Hairdressing I experimented with heated rollers. I like using them they are so easy to use and achieve a beautiful curl. I took a photo of the rollers in and the set results.

I've have completed my Theatrical Make-up assessment. Still think I have to master those flicks to widen the eye. But I did well enough to pass woo!

Practising bruises, not bad I think. I have the right colours and on the right parts of the eye...but I have to build up the courage to go bold and brighter!

Got some work experience already! I was asked by a friends mum to do her Cat woman make-up for Halloween, so I did some research and asked her to describe as best she could the look she wanted. She went for smokey eyes with flicks and bold red lips. I was a little nervous at first, but then I got in the zone! Ha! She was really pleased with the results and even decided to pay me for it. I'm a very happy girl as she has asked me to come back again sometime to do her make-up. Which means more experience and I'll become more confident in my skills.

We were practising some Halloween make-up. John was my model, and I chose to do a zombie. I like what I've done I just want to achieve brighter colours. So I decided to edit the photo to show me exactly how much brighter I could have went to achieve a better look. Greasepaint can be so annoying to work with but it's great for blending! 

In Hairdressing we have been learning Finger-waving. It's tricky but I love it. It leaves such a glamorous effect! I finger waved the front then set rollers in the rest of the hair.

After the hair had dried I took the clips and rollers out. I then brushed out the curls all the way to the bottom of the hair then I flicked the hair up at the bottom. I secured the bottom of the hair with hair grips and that was it.

 I adored the results, I was expecting to be awful at this but I think I proved myself wrong! I can't wait to do a full head of finger-waving.

Accident scenario was fun to do, mines what based on abuse and a glass bottle being thrown. The arm is cut and bruised as she was trying to protect her face from the bottle, however I wanted to show that a bit of glass escaped and caught her eye. Although I think this wasn't bad as a first attempt, I'm well aware of the fact that the cuts and bruises have to be more effective, to achieve this I will have to use stronger colours so every scratch stands out!
