THE ARTISAN SUMMER 2018 • 47 bun on steroids. All the little girls have a very long ponytail with rubber bands placed to give it some texture. The boys all have a little Dippity-do in their hair—it goes up in a slope like an ocean wave. We see something similar again when we meet Red (Michael Peña). We gave him finger waves to the side—very sculpted hair. In a later scene, he turns into a puppet, so that's where the inspiration comes from. His hair changes with each costume and gets harder and harder until he becomes the puppet. The other main look we created was for the Happy Medium (Zach Galifianakis). He doesn't have pristine hair—he's a caveman essentially. But a space caveman. So we gave him this really cool, messy, braided man-bun. This is the biggest film I've had an opportunity to be a part of and my favorite project so far. It was so cre- atively fulfilling, and of course, I got to work with amazing, AMAZING people. And those amazing people include my team of fabulous stylists who kept this whole engine run- ning smoothly. They are a bunch of super-talented union members, many of whom I have been working with for years. Kendra Garvey (Hood Adjacent with James Davis, All-Star Halloween Spectacular) is my girl, and a master of braiding, so she did a lot of the braiding (obviously) and helped JAPONESQUE ® brushes are assembled by hand and feature solid wooden handles, hand-cut professional-grade fibers and rust resistant ferrules. With over 30 uniquely designed styles available and 3 different fiber options, JAPONESQUE ® brushes deliver professional, precision results.
