Hi,
For a historical scenes under Louis XIV. I’m looking to create women’s hairstyles with English curls.
Here are several tests to get as close as possible to the style of the reference.
Unfortunately I can’t get locks with few loops and which are vertically long and can create loops (boucles anglaises in french).
If you have an idea to achieve this, I’ll take it.
I send some pictures, historical and real references and 3 test render.
Best regards
Etienne Waldt

Hi this method is a good way for wigs but it's not what i'm looking for. In fact i'm trying to recreate those long curl on woman's shoulder.

Hi,

Let's break up the images to find a solution for each case. For complex grooms you may need to create several hair objects for different parts of the hair. For example, the curls on the Asion woman can be done in two ways: Using a curl modifier or using the twist parameters in the Clump modifier. in general I think your project is going to need lots of experimentation and be pretty familiar with Ox. 

Let's start with the first image from left to right. Please find a highger resolution reference and break the reference into sections so we can approach each part of the hair individually with different techniques.
