CHOICES!!!! Our pretty ribbon hairnets feature your choice of ribbon color and coronet as listed below. The ribbon portion of the net is constructed over a layer of simple tulle which helps keep the hair underneath neat, in place and stops it poking out of the head-dress. A metal headband, which is encased in the coronet, provides a comfortable and secure way to keep the net on your head. Rolled elastic at the nape of the net, allows for size adjustment. The net will fit over most head sizes and hair lengths. RIBBON HAIRNET: 1. Black: Net of black satin ribbon beaded with black glass beads over black tulle. 2. Cream: Net of cream satin ribbon beaded with cream glass or pearl beads over a nude tulle.
Coronet Ribbon Choices: (See pictures) 1. Black Satin folded ribbon accented with cream satin center and cream bows. 2. Fancy Edged cream satin beaded with black beads and accented with black ribbon and bows. This is not only a nice way to complete your look, but a practical way to hide a shorter hairstyle. (The mannequin head shown has hair no longer than 3 inches all over)
This hairnet is based on one shown in Godey's Lady's Book, March of 1860. This net is appropriate for civil war re-enactors, living historians, and others looking for a period correct Victorian or Elizabethan/ Renaissance look. It would also be a good item for workers or volunteers at historical sites. What to do with your hair is often one of the harder parts of reenacting. We think this hairnet offers a great solution.
