Wimple Wednesday: 16th century headrail

Now in the 16th century--it's the 36" square of linen, again, knotted over the hair (which has been braided in two bunches and wrapped around the head).  I like how this style of rail keeps my hair neat, off my neck/face, and clean from all the dust at Faire. I've honestly kept my hair up for a 12+ hour day with only one hairpin thanks to the headrail (and the linen strips on my braids).

Managed it this time without any pins!
