Jurnjack's work entitled 'Pump Up The Volume' presents how extreme padding and plaits can be used within modern avant garde hair design to create looks that a reminiscent of the Elizabethan period. Both of these styles were created using hair extensions and additional pieces thats were combined with the models own hair, by doing this the stylist is able to fully wrap the padding and create styles that use an unrealistic amount of hair and fully cover the design.
The first style is probably the most reminiscent of the Elizabethan period as it shape is closest the that of the tall heart shapes featured within many portraits, especially at the beginning of the 17th century nearing the end of Elizabeths reign when her wigs were most flamboyant. The fact that both hairstyles remain linked to the era despite the modern presentation of an all nude model emphasises the individuality of the Renaissance hair design and how it remains to this day an iconic piece of styling. The square shaping of this design reflects a modern take on the rounded heart shapes that were so fashionable at the time with the geometric structure of the hair implying a sense of modernism.
The second piece is not necessarily directly Elizabethan upon first impression but does feature elements of the period, in particular focusing on how plaits were combined to create buns at then back of the head. By placing the wheel of plaits at the front and larger in size the design creates an artistic interpretation of an Elizabethan style designed for everyday practicality. By changing the location of a style on the head it can effectively completely alter the degree of artistry surrounding the look.
