[Jewelry made out of human hair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rising-collection) may have recently exploded onto the scene, but Agustina Woodgate Hair Castles are the newest venture into, well, hairy art.

For her 'I Wanted to be a Princess' project, Agustina Woodgate meticulously crafted 3,000 bricks entirely out of human hair and then assembled them into [two very medieval-looking castles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beauty-and-the-beast-castle).

Don't be fooled by the pictures; these castles are bigger than they appear. One of the castles, called Tower, is about 4.5 feet tall. The different-colored bricks are simply made out of different colored hair, of course. The window frame, for instance, is made completely out of golden blond hair.

The second castle is called [Sandcastle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doordash-and-casadonna) and looks like -- you guessed it -- a sandcastle, complete with a messy pile of hair at the bottom made to look like crumbling sand (or bricks?).

The Agustina Woodgate Hair Castles will be on display at the Spinello Gallery in Miami.
