Afro Curls

You can also create another way of achieving a crimped look or ‘afro curls’ will just using a hair pin and some straightening irons. To do this you should use a square section of hair, using a long grip wrap hair round in a figure of 8. Once all hair is used, use another grip to keep in place and place straighteners over the hair, once the hair appears flat and shiny leave to cool down. Once cool remove the grip and undo the hair, you can keep it as a curl or brush out to give afro affect. I think the afro curls would have been quite popular during the Elizabethan era because they would of given off the curled affect with the volume as well. 
Below is an Elizabethan portrait I think has afro curls:
