Hair ideas for Miss Havisham

I would like to create a hairstyle for Miss Havisham which has an element of decaying as I feel her persona gives off that vibe.  I did some research on Pinterest of some messy decaying hairstyles and decided to go with something back combed. http://www.pinterest.com/laurenamyjeffer/decaying/

I decided to go for a hairstyle like this because I feel her hair would be messy especially after sleeping and having it styled for so long.  However I still wanted to keep an element of structure and style there to show that once it was a beautiful up do.

As we had been taught the French pleat I thought it was a great way to quickly put the hair up in a neat way.  This meant I had more time to focus on the make up and the rest of the hairstyle.

Here are a few pictures I have taken my inspiration from

I combined the idea of a messy quiff at the front with some spiral curls down the sides of the face along with a French pleat that I will 'decay'
