Braiding Hairstyle in Fashion

&nbsp;&nbsp;The expectation and hope for the New Millenium appears in the contemporary fashion too. The angle of view, which have focussed on the functionalism and rationalism, is now turning its direction toward the new model. The new model is not the simple revival of the past but the recreation, that is the new conceptional handicraft.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;The purpose of this treatise is the re-illumination and the research of Braiding hair style, which has been handed down to us, closely connected with human life since the dawn of history.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;The following is the conclusion of my research. First, braiding ,worked by hand without special instrument, can be easily applied to the moulding expression of free line and free face of hair design. And it gives the feeling of relief. So it means that we can present a creative and individual image breaking from uniformity caused by the development of mechanic civilization by introducing handcraft technique to hair design.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;Second, braiding can express the hair style cubically because it makes the three-dimensional makeup possible on the real hair.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;Third, today&quot;s trend is the mixed use of two more techniques and various materials, and it expresses more effectively. In the same way, braiding technique present more various image using mixed with many materials (for example, a partial wig, a ribbon, strings etc.)<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;As we can see above conclusion, braiding hair style have the merit that an artist can express one&quot;s creative personality.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;Although braiding hair technique is settled in our daily life, the practical use is limited to three unit braiding. So, through this research I expect that various kinds of braiding technique extend its territory that have a new value in the hair style of contemporary fashion.
