Famous and globally known for her talent as a hairstylist, Nadia Stacey was the hair and makeup designer for Emma Stone in her latest crime/comedy film ‘Cruella’. It is finally out! And since it is too early to mention any spoilers, all we have to say is – make sure you don’t miss this one! While the movie is indeed Disney, it is nothing close to what you would expect to see, as you watch Cruella’s backstory and the sequence of events that lead up to her becoming a villain.
Using hair care brand HASK, Stacey offers a guide on how to recreate the iconic Cruella hair look. “To help create Emma Stone’s iconic Cruella look, I prepped her hair with the 5-in-1 Leave-In Spray prior to heat styling. Then I applied HASK’s Curl Enhancing Mousse and used a diffuser to boost and set the curls. To complete the look, I worked the Curl Defining Cream from root to tip to de-frizz and add shine. Cruel Curls have never looked so good!”
She went on to explain, “The Argan 5-in-1 Leave-In Spray was a key product to use because of all the styling. It worked so well to protect hair from all the hot tools used on set. HASK’s Leave-In Sprays are the best – they’re lightweight and free of all the nasties, which makes me feel comfortable when using them on my actresses!”
Stacey didn’t shy away from sharing her experience and interaction with stars on set. Regarding diligent hair treatment, she said, “While filming, I also consistently used HASK’s treatment hair masks to deeply condition and repair actors’ hair under wigs – I’d even send them home with the product to use as weekly treatments. The nourishing Coconut one is my fave! The Rose Oil and Peach Color Protection hair mask was a big hit for us because the black and white colored hair IS Cruella.”
The evidence is clear behind her success and the fact that she is an BAFTA award-winning stylist. If we take a look at her work history, whether in ‘From The Girl With All The Gifts’, ‘The Father’ or ‘Captain America: The First Avenger’, we can see how she always strives to achieve and create something extraordinary.
