  • Television Academy Awards
    2021 Primetime Emmy® Awards Ballot Outstanding Contemporary Hairstyling All American The Bigger Picture Synopsis When a college scout comes to talk to Spencer, he must decide if the strings attached is worth it. Technical Description The unique challenge of The Bigger Picture was using almost exclusively heatless techniques while creating styles that suited the contemporary culture of our young cast. A library of approaches were used to achieve the perfect kinky twists, swirly wavy edges and sleek ponytails which included flexible rods, finger coiling, braids, roller sets, expert use of product and twisting of textured hair. With zero last looks (due to Covid) and minimal to no heat we achieved high artistry and precise continuity. Away Goodnight Mars Synopsis Emma's behavior becomes a cause for concern, Kwesi and Lu team up on a plant mystery, and Rex makes an impulsive decision with far-reaching consequences. Technical Description I chose this Episode 7, Goodnight Mars for the natural resecting of hair. The hairstyles executed were with exclusion techniques to create a natural appearance while respecting the personalities of each character. Behind Her Eyes Behind Her Eyes Synopsis A stunning revelation makes Louise dig deeper into David and Adele's past, and what she discovers pushes her to demand the truth. Technical Description To make the series work, we had to change the look of every characters’ hair from the present-day to the flashbacks (still contemporary, just a few years earlier). Louise, our protagonist had a big transformation using wigs, wefts, and hair extensions. As we were never shooting in sequence, many of the looks needed to be changed quickly.
