<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 5492565, member: 2844&quot;]Not about hair weaving, but a little background info about hair artistry:</p><p><br /></p><p>One of my great-grandfathers was one of the last hair artists of the Netherlands. He made his last hair picture in the early 1920s.</p><p>He was a &#039;coiffeur&#039;, the French term was used for high end hairdressers.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie75" alt=":playful:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>He had studied in Brussels, where he also learned to make hair art and do make up (also for men). He was purveyor to the Dutch royal court, and did their hair and make up when they visited the south. </p><p>He only made hair pictures on demand, in his spare time, from the hair of his deceased clients. In those days ladies of means went to a hairsalon daily, so he considered it his last tribute to valued clients, many of whom he had known very well for decades.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
