18th Century Enslaved Women's Headwrap Tutorial

A tutorial for two 18th century headwraps. The first is a common headwrap for the colonies. The second is a headwrap found throughout the Caribbean that would have made its way to the colonies due to the slave trade. I will be doing four more tutorials in the future, please ask questions below. Please Note- These headwraps are intended for interpretations of women of African descent whether free or enslaved. A head wrap is a mark of standing in society and white women would not wear them in the same way as enslaved women.
