How to test if something is bakelite - Fitfully VIntage

Hmmmmm, gotta love them early plastics. Bakelite has always been popular amongst vintage style fashionistas and some pieces are incredibly collectable and sought after. Howevere due to this there is A LOT of other bits floating around that may well be beautiful but aren't necessarily the real deal.
There are a couple of ways that allow you to test a plastic piece to see whether or not it is bakelite, no one is a sure fire test but if you put them all together you can be pretty sure in your diagnosis.

Hair isn't the most important thing in the world but, sometimes knowing you have a super cool 'do' can make you smile and that can only be a good thing right?

Welcome to Vintagious, here, in my own litttle corner of Youtube I will show you how to create beautiful hairstyles from all eras. Sure, my main focus is on simple vintage hairstyling but I also love easy modern styles.

I don't have a favourite era, it changes all the time. One day it'll be Edwardian hairstyles that I'm all over, the next, pinup girl hair, the next I'll be all about Greek Goddesses and their crazy Barnets! I just love it all!

I do hope that you enjoy my videos and that you can learn something from them, even just a tiny bit - and even if you learn nothing I hope that they make you smile.
