If you've ever doubted that styling hair is indeed a true form of art, then this GIF will settle those doubts. This stylist [1] took his creativity beyond dyeing rainbow strands [2] and forming detailed updos [3] to create a life-size fascinator (similar to the ones worn by the royals) completely out of the model's blond mane.

The incredible time lapse shows him starting by separating a section of hair into a pinwheel shape, then teasing and molding her tresses to form the base of a hat. He then pulls in various loops and directions to create a brim and completes it with a dramatic floral accent. The finished result is fascinating!
