LOCAL706.ORG • 27 polish, colored shadows and rosie cheeks and lips, swipes of color as if applied with fingers. Our bunker billionaires had a classic old money look, neutral and neat. We contrasted this with the look in our flashbacks to D.C. with which was precise, more defined, and conservative. Our team was joined by Mindi Coats, the master barber for the show's star, Sterling K. Brown, and Kathy Santiago, his personal make-up artist. Together, they achieved the no-nonsense look of his character, Secret Service agent Xavier Collins. Mindi uses ANDIS professional clippers and blades to craft precise, deep wave patterns that enhance his authoritative presence. Kathy did an incredible job subtly de-aging him through different time periods, using correctors and color to create texture changes to reflect his evolving appearance. Her work—adding elements like blood, dirt, and wear—helped visually convey the emotional and physical journey of his character. Agent Collins is also a loving father whose actions and reactions are often motivated by his daughter, Presley (Aliyah Mastin), and son, James (Percy Daggs IV). MICHAEL: Hair stylist Ursula Simpson was inspired by Presley's youth to create individual braids accented with white rubber bands that were uniquely placed on each braid, then swept into various creative styles. Presley's natural hair was used for flashback looks. Her hair was prepped with two-strand twists, later uncoiled and fluffed to reveal a beautiful, natural curly wave texture.
